how many people from missouri already have there cars before me? Mine was supposed to be a month ago. Still not here.

Mine came in on 7/25.

I ordered on 2/4. My car was on the first boat out of Japan, which docked at port on 6/24ish. So, it was about a month from when it docked until it reached the dealership.

Got mine last Wednesday (7/30).

when i emailed then they told me they couldn't help me because my dealership didn't register me as a pre-order customer, i sent an email to the mazda address on the site, still haven't gotten a response back yet, i may end up calling them

thanks alot man:)

Rotar_Dude - where did you order yours from. I went to Blue Ridge Mazda yesterday and they said they have already sold three of them. A green and a black 6 speeds, and a red automatic.

freekwonder i orderd mine from independence lincoln mercury mazda on noland road. Where did you oreder yours from?

Rotar_Dude - sorry man I dont have an RX8, i would if they would give me a good trade in on my MP3, but they wont. I was just up there getting my tranny worked on.

cool

You guys really should not rely on what MNAO is telling you. They are just as clueless as we are unfortunately. They told me the second week of August, but mine came in on 7/30.

I also just got my e-mail about the car being released from port today (Tuesday) and that I should call my dealership to prepare for delivery, even though I picked up my car last Wednesday. They are really on top of things aren't they???

i love u vert! u are singlehandedly sustaining my optimism. ;)
(though, like u did, i'll keep the MNOA ETA in mind so that i can be "surprised" when i get the call.)

your posts have gotten a lot less "aggressive" lately...hmmmm.

;)

hey i just tried to call mnao and they close at 5:45 pm so no one answerd. It's really to bad because i was going to chew some ass.

i'm going to pick up my 8 RIGHT NOW!!!

WOOO-HOOOOOO!!!!

:D

that's really all i have to say about this car. i haven't had time to really play with it or find anything to nit-pick yet but initial reaction:

WOW

more from me later...waaaaaay later! ;)

Right there with ya, ELX13. All I could think or say that first day was, WOW! I've had the car exactly 2 weeks now and I can still, with all sincerity, say, WOW!

Wait till you Zaino that thing...even bigger WOW!!! :D

ahh yes...zaino. i haven't decided yet whether i'm going to do that or not. i might go with mequiars, mother's or liquid glass. (i hadn't given it a whole lot of thought cuz i wasn't expecting the ride for a while.)

91vert (kevin) is using liquid glass and swears by it.

i gotta decide soon though.

anyway, are u going to the BBQ tomorrow? u gotta come! i can't be the only 8 there...too much pressure! ;)

I just found out about it today. Unfortunately, I can't make it! :(

On the bright side, if you are the ONLY RX-8 owner there, you WILL be the hit of the party! Have fun!!!

CONGRATS ROTOR DUDE!

I went to St Louis last Friday night, talked to a dealer and by Moday afternoon, they had a car. I driving it now. The original RX-8 I ordered was part of the train derailment, the dealer in Kansas City refunded my deposit money.

If that's true, then I know one of the other 3 w/ a black GT. :)

What is with everyone getting a black RX8? Am I the only one in Kansas City with a red one?

i'm in springfield and i'm gettin a yellow one

Thank you for getting a different color. I hope enough people get different colors and we can have a parade.

i've owned two dark colored cars, they look great, but it's alot of work keeping it that way, i love my silver honda because it always looks clean, but i also love yellow cars

Our titanium one will be here Monday or Tuesday. I saw a red one yesterday and my friend saw a blue one last week.

That red one may have been me.

119th & Metcalf?

It may have been - I work off of Metcalf.

hey rx-8's guys in saint charles. I haven't seen u guyz yet. I saw a red 1 in O'fallon the other day. Any car shows u going too.

I went to Red Lobster in St. Peters yesterday, and what did I see? Another Rx8 with appearance package!! Not to mention, the first other 8 I've seen since I picked mine up 3 weeks ago. Mine was red, ems was black. I came after em and left before em, so never saw the owner. But I could see the other 8 out the window. Several people checked out both cars. Are you a member here?
