Everyone's too busy pouting and being jealous of whoever's those are, I guess. At least, that's currently my problem.

The GM of my dealership in Houston is checking with other dealers near Midlothian port now and also with Mazda themselves to see if shipments are on their way (he was not expecting anything today). I will let you know as soon as he calls me back.

It's hard to get too excited, when so far all I'm hearing is Texas and New Jersey seeing the cars.

Anyone in California seeing any cars???? Any please don't include those at the Port...... :p

This is exciting! Someone's gonna find the golden ticket today I feel. It better be a current forum member and not some 1st-post person thumbing their nose at the pre-order people here.

I dont think I'll be jumping up and down until my sales jerk calls me with good news - and then there's waiting a week until I can get to Austin to pick it up.

I called the Mazca dealership in Marietta to verify the 8's were there. I spoke with a salesman and he said 2 RX8's arrived this morning, but they are both demos, they are not presales. He was expecting those at any time. His dealership is the largest in Atlanta, and they are due to receive 40 RX8's total. The cars received today will be available for viewing. He said this proves that the boats have arrived, the cars have been released from the ports, and they should be arriving any moment now! The dealership was Jim Ellis, and the phone number is 770-590-4450. You can also get the phone number for this dealership at the MazdaUSA website.

Dude, I can see you are freaking out, but nobody here really wants to be subjected to your cursing posts. Next time, just yell in a pillow or something but please don't post it here.

Thanks.

I just spoke to the Sales Manager at my dealership. Trucks are delivering today and tomorrow around Texas. He doesn't think he will be receiving anything today (already after 5pm) so it will almost certainly be tomorrow.

BTW he got a chance to drive the 15k mile test car last week when they went through Houston and thought it was phenomenal - amazing steering, engine sound was quiet at low revs and great when you hammer it. I asked about interior quality (plastics etc) and he said it was pretty good like the Mazda 6 (no comment on leather as it was a cloth interior). He thought the NAV was excellent with voice announcements and over two million points of interest (restaurants, gas stations, ATMS, train stations, airports, hospitals etc).

Also NO INFO YET ON LEASE TERMS (residuals and money factor) - might not have that for a few more days. My car arrives in two weeks (2nd allocation) so hopefully leasing will be sorted out by then. Very unlikley to have a low money factor (e.g. when the Tribute SUV first came out the rate was effectively 10% for leases - divide by 24 to get money factor).

And POOMan - take a deep breath, it's just a car . Sounds like you'd have a heart attack if you were expecting a baby. Go and watch a movie or something, T3 was quite good...

Just stopped in at my dealer this afternoon. They are expecting a dealer allocation unit tomorrow, and weren't sure if my car would be on the same truck. They verified that mine was at Port Midlothian, so I'm hoping to get it later this week. I'm assuming it will need emissions checks etc. done there before they ship. Here's hoping I get lucky, and see it tomorrow (I have no port-installed options)!

On a sadder note, no coffee mug/thermos today
