Hallelujah! My dealer, Freeman's just called to tell me my car just arrived! Pictures to follow soon. I am a Happy Camper!!!:) :p :D

I'm still at work! I get it today too! :)

*mod envy*

You had to take yours back for the protection plan, Tribal. Way to go, Boowana!!! :D :)

For someone with all your "connections", I'd think you'd get your car a little sooner than this.

Oh well, it here now so enjoy it.:)

Almost in my driveway.
Titanium Grey with Rotary accent, Appearance Pkge, Rear Wing. Polished Wheels will go on shortly. When it's all ready, i will post final pictures.

Hmm, only moderators are responding right now... ;)

---jps

hmm. i better get my..... CONGRATULATIONS BOOWANNA! .... in now then:)

edit shouldn't this thread and your pic thread be in the "Boowanna's Quest" forum? you know to show completion of the "Quest".

Congrats, Boo!! :cool:

Looks like I beat you by 6 hours! :eek: :p

Yup, I just took delivery of a Ti GT (Taupe/black interior - taupe? Who picked the name for the chaparral leather in Canada?:confused: ), no moonroof. We originally wanted the moonroof, but my dealer in Calgary still has no clue as to when or if he might get it in, so I phoned around last week and found a dealer 2 hours away who got this car in on Friday - as of 10:30am today, it's mine!!! (and I've got 220 km on it already :cool: )

Regards,
Gordon

Congratulations on getting yoru RX-8. Isn't it ironic that the three of us on the Mazda Advisory Council all received their cars on the same day. Elliot got his today as well.:D :D :D

crazy ass canadians. taupe is the new tan.

Congrats Boowana! I am getting almost the exact same set-up as yours -- I actually tried to order the polished wheels at Trussville and Brian said that you ordered 4 of the last 6 available in the US. :mad: Guess you beat me to them -- post a pic and let us know how they look on the Ti Grey!

Beautiful car man! Good times!!:D

Have you thought about having the stock rims polished? I looked into this a couple years ago and think I am going to get mine done. I was quoted $150 per wheel and they would give me a set of loaner rims. Of course that was for my Z28 and 2 years ago.

Tom,

Was this someplace in Tampa/Brandon? If so, give me a name and/or phone #. That's something I may want to do down the road sometime. Thanks in advance.

RX-8s rule!!!

Congrats boowana - nice ride!!! I have to seriously consider getting the appearance package now after seeing yours.

Please post more pictures highlighting the appearance package!

THANKS!!!!

Time for a video/narration ride-along I think. ;)

Mark, Yeah in Tampa. I called them 3 years ago and don't recall who it was. I got the name from a friend of mine. Next time I talk to him I'll ask.

hot damn...those polished rims are hot! Me wants, me wants!

Nice House. is that a for sale sign?

What a sweet looking ride. Congrats man. Definately take some video. I want a tour! :p

I think Boo is selling his house to pay for the car.

Boo, I don't think those back seats are that large....
