Melbourne?

Who of you out there are from Melbourne?

I just placed my order and half these conversations only really apply in Sydney.

Anyone heard details on delivery etc from Melbourne dealers?
I ordered last week and was told i got the 2nd last in the first shipment. The shipment is due in july.

Hi

I ordered and paid deposit in January 2001.

Red with Red Trim

Got my book last week

I think I'm going to get the front air dam, side kit, spoiler and rear deflector... probably about $2k extra but over the course of 4 years it's not much different.

Oh... also the Rotary badges...

Yeah - same - Early August... bummer huh????

Certainly is.

I'm going to wait and see what the extra's look like b4 i go ordering them. I went the leather pack/manual.

I'm starting to wonder if i missed out on the book.
I was told i would get it but most of the early orders have received it already.

Is it anything special or not really?

If you want to understand *everything* about the RX-8 including the 6PEI (the six stages of intake volume adjustment) and the various iterations of Apex seal development then you need the book...

Otherwise, it's still a very handy, glossy, beautifully bound and printed coffee table accessory.
