This is my first post. I am farley new to the forum and wanted to post a few questions. I've only recently decided to purchase a new vehicle. I haven’t made up my mind totally, but I love the looks of the rx-8.

I live in Indiana and there is only 3 dealers in my area. I went to two of them and they are not even taking pre-orders for the rx-8. I've done a lot of ready and it appears that the rx-8 will be out around spring/summer. Does anybody have any idea how early mazda will post add. info on the rx-8? Price, availability, etc? I'm not sure if car manufacturers normally let out add. info at 6, 7, or 8 months prior to car availability. Also, any speculation on how long it will be before you see any at the dealers after pre-ordering is over.

Thanks in advance for opinions.

I expect Mazda to release a ton of info for the car at the Detroit Auto Show.

Info is coming out all the time. Keep checking out this forum. Your choice of car is admirable. The RX-8 will be one of the BEST ever. Good luck. Price should be around $26,000.00 to $31,000.00. Availability should be around May, 2003.
