**************
Your local Mazda dealer has submitted your request to Mazda for your 2004 Mazda RX-8—the sports car bred from bloodlines of the legendary RX-7. The next step is for the factory in Japan to process and confirm your order. This normally takes place within 45 days of your production month. We will send you a notification email once this process is complete.

Preordered today from Mazda North in Austin. From what I've been told, my car is one from the first schedule that the dealer had already spec'd out. Its a good thing I wanted it loaded ;-) Supposed to get confirmation email tomorrow.

Drop me a PM when you come to town to take delivery. We live one block behind Mazda North.

Houston... ordered early Feb.

I received the following on 3/19/03:
Great news! The factory has accepted and confirmed your order for your all-new 2004 Mazda RX-8--a sports car like no other. Next, the factory will assign your Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) and begin production on your Mazda RX-8. We will send you a notification email with the VIN when that occurs--sometime in the next 1-3 months.

In the meantime, please visit the web site's gallery to view the latest Mazda RX-8 photos, 360o views and more.

Thanks again for your participation in our Mazda RX-8 Order program!

I am in Houston (recently moved from NJ). I pre-ordered on Jan 8th but said I cannot pick up the car until late July or August timeframe, so I was put into the 2nd allocation group. I received the same e-mail as Boowana in mid-March.
