Any more info on the 2006's
#4
no information on release dates
given that the price lists are not even out, it looks like the earliest date the cars will arrive is around March 2007. Maybe even later. It would be unusual to launch a Sport Prestige II model now and launch the 2006 model in such a short time frame.

long time coming
I put my deposit down on an a Winning Blue 06 (touring package, nav, plus extras) in October. I was told then to expect delivery in mid-november. I just recieved a call today from the dealership that that date has been pushed back to late Jan, early Feb.
I'm starting to think that the 06 8 is just a myth

i got told this evening that mazda has informed the Canadian dealerships not to see any on the lots until mid Feb. and around here, finding an '05 that you want is hard as well. plus the shipping company that hauls the cars around on trucks may be starting a strike this coming weekend, which will make it harder for dealer trades outside cities...

Don't know 'bout US spec but 06 Euro spec prices area already out. They'll be charging €170 more. Confirmed new features are cruise control (We didn't get it before) and voice-operated satnav. Don't have a clue regarding keyless entry.
People I know have ordered '06 cars and should be getting them around january.
Where I live we only get the 238 Hp version with sport package (Heated leather seats, satnav, sports suspension, 6 CD changer, Xenons...)

Keyless entry, and couple new colors will replace couple old colors. Big dealships are saying late Jan early FEB litlle dealerships march. Mazda 1-800-222-5500 says March. Mazda wake up before you loose all your customers

It's funny, because most other countries aren't overstocked. Looks like Mazda NA miscalculated a bit. Here in Edmonton Alberta Canada most dealers have one or two cars. Some have none.

Why would you want an 06? Winning Blue is available now and its the same car. Why wait and pay more? You can get an 05 lower than an 06. I dont know why anybody would put money down on a next year RX-8. its not as if those cars are gonna sell like hot cakes when thy are out and they arent limited edition. You can buy it when they do come out, why leave your money at a dealership?
