I think the polished wheels would only be appropriate on MTV Cribs, when they are "checking out my rides"

Agree with MarkW about the wheels - Bling Bling!

Looking at East Moon's pictures of some of the Japanese cars with the MazdaSpeed kit fitted I'd be far more tempted by a MazdaSpeed front.

Unbelievable !

Sorry about that, but I have difficulties to understand how customers that are going to take delivery in early 2004 - so that they ordered it WAY AFTER ME (oct.2003) are just having a test drive invitation ....

Mazda FRANCE, UK you really suck.

I am so mad about this unbelievable bad customer service.

They even told me "well just cancel your order, it will be free of charge".

Surely they think another one will take the queue, but believe me this is a very short term thinking ...

It was my decision. I preordered in may 03, that allowed me to take part on the test drive. My dealer told me I`ll get the RX8 in october 03, (I don`t drive the car in winter) I sad I don`t need the car bevore march 04 and meanwhile the delivery date is nov. 03, so it`s OK for me.

Stephan,

Mazda Austria were just lucky that the European cars were "spare" for a couple of days so they made use of them.

We are not so fortunate here in UK as there are no spare cars for us to drive at the moment, looks like the same for you in France as well

I would like to know. I prefer them over the coat hanger anyday. Seems like an easy retrofit if I can get the struts. If I can't locate some Stateside maybe one of you great guys could measure them for me. Or better yet pick a couple up from Mazda :D

Didn't get to look at them when I put them up.

Very nice. No running in period then Stakato? :p


DVD screen looks good too - the fold up motorised screen is quite neat. Still don't know if I can justify 1500 quid for it tho :/

I just tried a download to see if it was still working. It's fine here!

Getting 195k/sec


Bandwidth is from NewNet. They're currently rated as the fastest ISP for Web Hosting. 150quid a year for 1Gb space, with 1Gb transfer/month and a whole load of features and scripting/SQL etc support.


Glad to see it's working well Now just got to get my **** in gear and start building my site!

Working fine for me now as well.

EDIT - do I need to install RealPlayer for these? They do nothing in either windows media player or power dvd.
