Red Stearing wheel

Can anyone confirm if the red leather cars come with the black/red stearing wheel. I am a bit confused because it is on the accessories price list.

It does in Australia and I really wasn't expecting it.

It does also on the Dutch 8ths.
You can get either a full black interior (with black steeringwheel)or otherwise a red/black or brown/black interior with two colour steeringwheel.

Rexy its standard. I originally ordered black with the red/black ;eather way back in Jan/Feb, but wanted the black s/wheel. Dealer said that I had to have red/black wheel.

In the 8 it certainly will be black. I think I will not change that and neither change the handbrake ****. I would like to have the aluminium pedals though, but on the Dutch LP version, this is not a standard item.

Hi

In Belgium you also get the two-tone staering wheel when you ordered the "upgrade" version with leather and sat nav.

30 october I have my test drive, finaly as I ordered 28/01/03.

Dear Patrick,

It seems that, even though you ordered your 8, Mazda Belgium is letting you testdrive anyway.
I was only invited to sit in one, and never been offererd to drive one when possible. I do not think I can't sleep because of that, but you are more lucky I guess.
I live about 1,5 hours from Antwerp, perhaps we could meet some time after really getting our 8.

I wish you a pleasant testdrive.

Kind regards,

Eric
