When I had my FD, and my buddies still currently with FDs purchase OEM from Pembroke Mazda. Forget what the price is, (cost + 10%?) - worth the call though...

Redshift was on time with his departure time heading to mills.
He left our lot at around 10am.
Look out for the winning blue gt on the twisties between Halifax and Truro.

My Yellow GS buyer still hasn't called with his "funds avail." yet so if anyone wants instant delivery just call.

So Redshift published his timing on the forum and Steele Mazda stepped up and delivered, right on time.....

So after flying to Dartmouth early this morning, and visiting the fine folks at Steele Mazda (the yellow GS is very nice!) I'm twiddling my thumbs waiting for word from the rail yard.

Hopefully I'll receive the vehicle by 3pm so I can hit the highway and catch my ferry back to Nfld tonight at midnight. If all goes well, by this time tomorrow, I'll have the break-in accomplished and will be able to safely get after it on the Southern Shore highway .... narrow 2-lane highway with plenty of sharp turns, should be a blast.

Some feedback on Redshift's car - the Winning Blue is MUCH nicer in person than in the photos. Tell you the truth, I was a bit concerned about the blue, but it looks incredible. Hopefully I will feel the same about my Titanium Grey later today.

Does that mean that the cars are all going to be out of the rail yard today?

bgparsons3

As I understand it, not unless the dealer is going to the rail yard to pick up the vehicles in person. I suppose normally they would be trucked to the dealer?

funksoulbrother

Do we (by that I mean me) have any way of finding out the details of how and when the truck will take the car out of the rail yard?

Is it a corporate thing, continuation of the CN transport, or is it the dealer responsability to get a truck out there and get the car?

What do you guys know, because I'm in the dark again, and starting to twitch.

I really need my car! Productivity is at an all time low right now.

Hey guys,
Just an update from Dartmouth,
I just personally picked up Mr.Parsons new RX8 and have it on sched for delivery.
I noticed 3 more out front to be picked up by dealers,1 for Kentville and 2(?) for New Glasgow.

I'm on the phone calling you now Mr. Parsons

Cheers

I also saw a titainium sitting in the rail yard looking like it was waiting for a truck.

funksoulbrother

That's gotta be mine!!!

timsteele

Bgparsons3 just pulled out of our lot with his new Titainium GT
He may see Redshift on his way back from Mills. It was still on the hoist last time I was speaking with Mills.

2 delivered from here and more to come.

Cheers

Pete

congrats everyone!!!

Tim, you must have beat us there. I went up with my dealers today and picked up mine. When I was there there were three waiting out front. My silver, the red for the other guy up here and a Ti, which must have been the one for Kentville.
Mine is getting cleaned up now and I'm picking it up in, ummm, 55 minutes.

What a sweet ride. I drove back following the dealer who was driving the red one. The two driving in formation caused just a fe heads to turn:D

BTW, I saw Redshift's blue on the way down, just before he got to Truro. Man, they look sharp even from across the median.

bgparsons3 is going to be passing here in an hour or so, and will be stopping by, so I'll hopefully have some shots of the Ti and Silver together. I'll post some picks later, if I get a chance.

Dang. Still 50 minutes until I pick up the car.....

timsteele

I see everyone is off line,
Must be out driving.
Happy motoring everyone.

Cheers

Mine arrived in PEI today.
Thanks to everybody who tracked it along it's path.

I know it's safe until I pick it up on Wednesday...it's going to be a long 5 days wait!

thanks all
