Mine came in on 7/25.

I ordered on 2/4. My car was on the first boat out of Japan, which docked at port on 6/24ish. So, it was about a month from when it docked until it reached the dealership.

when i emailed then they told me they couldn't help me because my dealership didn't register me as a pre-order customer, i sent an email to the mazda address on the site, still haven't gotten a response back yet, i may end up calling them

Rotar_Dude - where did you order yours from. I went to Blue Ridge Mazda yesterday and they said they have already sold three of them. A green and a black 6 speeds, and a red automatic.

You guys really should not rely on what MNAO is telling you. They are just as clueless as we are unfortunately. They told me the second week of August, but mine came in on 7/30.

I also just got my e-mail about the car being released from port today (Tuesday) and that I should call my dealership to prepare for delivery, even though I picked up my car last Wednesday. They are really on top of things aren't they???

i love u vert! u are singlehandedly sustaining my optimism.
(though, like u did, i'll keep the MNOA ETA in mind so that i can be "surprised" when i get the call.)

your posts have gotten a lot less "aggressive" lately...hmmmm.

ahh yes...zaino. i haven't decided yet whether i'm going to do that or not. i might go with mequiars, mother's or liquid glass. (i hadn't given it a whole lot of thought cuz i wasn't expecting the ride for a while.)

91vert (kevin) is using liquid glass and swears by it.

i gotta decide soon though.

anyway, are u going to the BBQ tomorrow? u gotta come! i can't be the only 8 there...too much pressure!

I just found out about it today. Unfortunately, I can't make it!

On the bright side, if you are the ONLY RX-8 owner there, you WILL be the hit of the party! Have fun!!!

My car

I went to St Louis last Friday night, talked to a dealer and by Moday afternoon, they had a car. I driving it now. The original RX-8 I ordered was part of the train derailment, the dealer in Kansas City refunded my deposit money.
