Have any port of NJ people heard anything on their relase?
Seems like the other ports are showing released from port and the emails are flowing but I haven't seen anything from someone whose car is coming into port of NJ. I know mine has been sitting there since like 6/27 so just wondering if they were just behind the ball on getting the emails out or if they aren't releasing from NJ yet.

where are you located?(Herc)
Please forgive me, but my memory tells me you live in the Jersey area - can you be more specific in relation to either the NJ port and Philly or Baltimore? (I'm about 4 hours from the ferry that goes to Manhatten in NJ, wherever that is)

My dealer is located literally 45 minutes away from the port of entry, Jersey City.
Edit: I'm in central Jersey also, and about an hour from Philly and an hour and half from NYC (driving to both).

Browns Mazda Alexandria received 3 of 4 first shipment pre-order RX-8s last night. The fourth one (MINE ) should arrive later this week. The reason is that my RX-8 was the only one in this group with accessories. As soon as they are installed (Roatary Accents/Splash Gurads) it will be on its way!! It still shows delivery of July week 2 on the inventory report.

My car arrived today. I just happened to drive by my dealer, and look around the lot to see if I saw any. Just as I was leaving, I noticed a silver RX-8 in my rear view mirror turning into the maintenance shop. I drove around to the shop and saw three 8's in there.
I went in to talk to my salesman and he said mine came in today and was going to call me when they finished the PDI. So I will be there at 10am tomorrow to do all the paperwork. ( They were not going to be finished tonight. )
I have not received the delivery e-mail from Mazda.

I've heard there is a shortage of rotary accent packages at port, so they are waiting on a shipment to install before they release some with that option.
If you ordered port accessories, you may be waiting a few more days.

Next you'll be telling me there is an even longer wait for the splash guards.

Heh I live in Lancaster, PA not more then about 4 hours via the slowest route from Jersey city and according to the Mazda people at the 800 number mine is scheduled for 7/17 arrival which is absolute crap. WTF is taking this so long? Mine has no port options, and a VIN under 1000. What are they doing have the truck driver tour the country before coming here or does he have drive in reverse or something?
I am still amazed at the complete lack of information that Mazda is providing (still no promised email about released from port) and the fact that allocation units are showing up prior to pre-orders placed 7+ months ago.

I just came back from my dealer. Two rx-8s came in today(yellow and black). My car will be arriving next week or the end of this week. Damn i was the first person to order the car and since i got the accessories it bumped my car off by a couple of days. The tension is high

I just called MazdaUSA, and they said my ETA was yesterday, 07/15. Either my dealer hasn't called me or the truck is delayed. I called the sales manager, but he's out to lunch. Hopefully he'll return my message and tell me my RX-8 is here! I'll keep you guys updated.

arrived 7AM 7/17
Mine was unloaded at 7AM this morning from a truck that had sides covered and the tail covered by a bubble. Another Red was also on the truck. Mine was positioned last, bottom row. the other red was top row, 2nd from back.

No Gods For Me
My red RX8 came in this afternoon and I drove it home this evening. The Mazda Sales Manager also got his Titanium which included the appearance package.
The car is, without a doubt, the best car I have ever driven. There is no comparison between my old 1981 RX7 and this new car. Handling, road feel, smoothness, and the unbelievable eagerness to rev are huge winners for me.
This is a great car!

Herc,
Don't be so sure about weekend deliveries. The Browns Alexandria dealer received 3 RX-8s (NOT MINE!) last Sunday night at 11pm. I was talking to them about this and they said if the truck comes in after closing they off load and put the keys in an envelope with time of delivery. Just like joe average dropping a car off for service.
The latest 'guess' is my car may show up tonight or tomorrow morning.
