YEY!! My order for my RX8 is going in today!
Hey Everyone,
I've been bugging all of you for about a year now and I finally decided to pull the trigger on a new RX8.
Not a lot of details now but all I know is the order was sent to the General Sales Manager this morning. :D
(We're hoping to have news from Japan soon)
I'll keep all of you posted as the details come in...

*laughing* He just said he doesn't see too many requests for the black with black / red.
I took it as quite a compliment that there won't be TOO many cars out there like mine...

2010 Prius - Miss the 8
The Fleet managers over at Irvine are pretty cool... Test driving no problem. I almost went to buy the car there, but at that time they didn't have the one I was looking for.

Thanks Slvr8!
Yeah, I just couldn't say 'no' to that great looking interior.
I might even paint the calipers red to match...
I'm getting ahead of myself again: Need to get car first :D

'04 MT RX8/71 351C Mach1
The black/red interior a unique animal. I had a Titanium Gray with the black/red for a weekend test drive before I bought. I thought the black/red interior was OK, but not teriffic with this combination (as did my wife). But I finally ended up getting a Velocity Red with the Black/red interior and I think it is GREAT! I think the two best combinations for the black/red leather is with the red or black exterior, absolutey!
Good choice!
Good choice!

Thats cool... I want a MS spoiler also... 
I'm planning to get my RX-8 at Tustin Mazda. Good to know that you enjoyed talking to Joey. Hahaha... How much did Joey offer the RX-8 to you for? (Just curious) :p

That would mean NO HASSLE 2005 RX8 @ invoice... :D
That is of course if you don't like going toe to toe with sales guys over a specific price.

Invoice + $500 is through the Costco Auto Program. (totally free for all members)
What you do at that point is spring the Gerber rebate on them and you could walk away with it at Invoice.
Just like you said... No sense in paying over invoice on one of these.
The owner of Tustin Mazda is also a great guy by the name of John Patterson. He's a big RX enthusiast and is a pleasure to deal with as well. (just an fyi)
