it was silver, i think sunlight silver actually. i usually notice all cars on the road (im somewhat observant ) so when i saw this flash of silver with a very happy 5 point grill face i immediately took notice.

i didnt know they had hit the dealerships yet. i have to say, its a very nice a looking little car.

I saw one a couple days ago (it looked like an SS too). It sort of surprised me. I didn't think they were out yet.

A possibility is that the OP will soon follow with a relative post about a new RX-8 article/news bit???

Mazdaspeed RX8 ver2

oh leave him alone, haha, this is rx8 news, one of the family (little cousin) has been seen on the street, they're taking their first rolls in life

DOMINION

Yup they for sale, Seen them in the show rooms and as rental cars out here. Also seen the MS3

emmers

i went to the dealership on monday to look at the 09 mazdaspeeds and the guy took us to the backlot where they had the 2010s. pretty fancy, i saw them online like last month so seeing them in person was better. i didnt like them online but they do look better when you can touch it. eh, still not my cup of tea. i still prefer the 09s better.

Roger Beasley Mazda Central had 2 brand new on the lot a month about a month ago. I saw them when I took my car in for service. Very, very nice.

yeah Heritage had them about three weeks ago, I was in for service and they arrived then and there,,, the service manager walked me out to them and pointed out all the F*** ups they made into the new like absolutely no leg room for the rear passengers,,,

zoom44

i sat in the 2010 and 2009s at the auto show and noticed no difference. and the specs i just looked up on consumer guide show 2009 legroom rear was 36.3 inches while the 2010 is listed at 36.2 inches

http://consumerguideauto.howstuffwor...mazda-3-13.htm
http://consumerguideauto.howstuffwor...mazda-3-13.htm

thats still 4 inches more than the published spec for the RX-8

http://consumerguideauto.howstuffwor...da-rx-8-13.htm

you think that translates to "absolutely no leg room for the rear passengers"

and you and the service manager could tell the difference of .1 inches?

zoom44

id question why the service manager is attempting to discourage sales of the car........

snizzle

Yeah, awful strange.... sounds like he wants to move his current older stock.

I finally get to sat in one today.

Went to Wayne for service(need to check something out for my car), while waiting, I went into the showroom for a walk, they have a Mazda3 hatch 5 dr sports in black sitting there. Its a Manual *sweet*, but I cant get Manual tranny(retarded GF couldn't/refused to drive manual for ****!

chit chat for a bit with the sales guy, it sounds like he wants a sale but he is "after" my Honda FIT's trade in more. lol! (I am going to sell it privately ... more $$$ that way )

Since the car justttt came in not sure if he is willing to do a sale at "invoice" price with the special APR.

Anyway, the car is nice, need to check out the GT package one day (dont have it in the showroom).

why'd you have to tease me with a diesel? huh? huh? don't you know the USA hasn't evolved to that point yet?

pbuck1

Boy I wish that we could get the Diesel here in the US . This would give VW a run .

They sell diesel here ---- its just that it cost WAY more than gasoline.

I think it was like 3 bux a gallon here around my home.

Typical Americans "still" believe that Diesel sucks ... some dont even know what Diesel is (especially younger generation)

i seen 2 so far, one silver one black, i took pics of both while on the road, i actuall got a rare shot of a new 3 with the previous gen side by side at a red light, it was so unexpected that i had to snap a pic, then seconds ater i saw my 1st R3 on the road (everyone i seen has been at dealerships) i have a pic of the side by side 3 if anyone wants to see.
