I don't bloody believe it!

Email from Mazda asking me to hurry and pre-order!

Last chance to pre-order
your Mazda RX-8!
Thank you for registering your interest in
pre-ordering a Mazda RX-8.
The Mazda RX-8 pre-order internet service is due to shutdown at 5pm, 22nd
October 2003.
New orders will be accepted up to that time, however, once an order has been entered, any further changes or updates must be made via your chosen dealer. This has been necessary to allow us to finalise the vehicle allocation and deliveries to dealers. Alternatively if you wish to pre-order a
Mazda RX-8 after the 22nd October, you can do so by contacting a Mazda dealer directly.

I just had one as well.

Looks like a blanket email from their marketing company.

Over the past week or so I haven't been able to log in anyway because it always brings up the new user registration form. Left and right hands not talking to one another as usual! :/

Oh, and the mail I got is a little different - thankfully in my case, they're at least aware that I did place an order!

Thank you for placing an order for your Mazda RX-8 and your patience in awaiting the delivery of your vehicle.

Got the same email as lurcher - at least acknowledging that I had placed an order.

Perhaps you other guys had better check they are actually going to allocate you a car... or that they even ordered you one.....

Hey, at least you guys are getting e-mails.

I appear to be non-existent after they got my e-mail address, and I am normally batting marketing stuff off with both arms....
