2006 Mazda MX-5 Hot Streak Tour Dallas **UPDATED**

[boowana]

Hello Fellow Enthusiats: While I realize that this is the Rx-8 Forum, a lot of us owned Mazda miatas in the past. The new 2006 Thrid Generation mazda MX-5 will be coming through Dallas next Sunday and Monday. Here are the details for those of you who might like to get up close to this great new car. It is built an a modified RX-8 chassis so it should certainly be a great handling car. Welcome and thanks for being a part of the hottest national program this country has seen! In honor of the arrival of the 2006 MX-5 Miata, Mazda has loaded the new MX-5 on top of a fire truck and is burning up the highway across the country, with a stop in DALLAS, TX. In each city we are teaming up with a local fire department to raise funds for fire safety education efforts, providing a great community connection at each stop and an added hook to generate media coverage for the new MX-5. While the MX-5 is in the DALLAS metropolitan area it will be making stops to not only give you a chance to see the car up close and personal, but also create a heat wave of excitement as it tours high-traffic consumer areas. This is a great opportunity for local clubs to see and sit in the new MX-5 Miata and simultaneously generate awareness and funds for our local fire department partner, the Dallas Texas Fire Station, #27. We hope you will come out to see the new MX-5 at various destination points across the metropolitan area, caravanning along the way for some added fun. Below is the schedule for the Dallas “stop,” including a description of what will take place at each stop. We look forward to seeing you!

This is the oddest combination of promotion i have ever seen. Who would of ever thought miata's and fire safety would go together. I will admit, seeing a car in a clear case, on top of a fire truck, driving through the city... sounds pretty interesting.
