An RX8 (UK) roll of firsts?
As some of you are now so close to getting your hands on your machines, stake your claim to being the very first...

Here are some suggested categories:

First to take delivery

First of a certain colour

First 5 speed

First in a certain county

First ....etc, etc

First to need a new engine?

First to get compensation for December delivery?

First to crash?!

Maybe - beat me by 3 hours, collecting mine at 2pm Friday! Still perhaps the English record is still up for grabs.

bear in mind i'm so bad with financial matters it could well take me over three hours to fill the forms in.

remember with mazda it's not a race it's a marathon.

Very good point Jumpalongjim...could the first one already be out there????

I'm sure once we see a claim made, any challengers will crawl out of the woodwork.

I'm expecting to see the first one posted here by noon today... exciting stuff!

I've got no doubt there are some people out there already driving their own. Even at my small dealer there was one that arrived a couple of days before mine, so that must be on the road by now. Not even gonna try and stake a claim to be first, but its nice to be ONE of the first...

There's been a red one driving around Newcastle for about 3 months now, guess it's a Jap import. Seeing that car is what diverted my interest from buying a TT.

How about first 2 to meet on the road.

Should we make friendly gestures to each other? What do other people think?
