Re: RX-8 Port Release

GREAT NEWS...the all-new 2004 Mazda RX-8 is on the way! Starting today, Friday, July 11th, we will begin releasing this revolutionary new sports car from U.S. ports for delivery to dealers.

Pre-Sell Customers Are Being Notified When Their Car Ships

Pre-Sell customers will receive their final e-mail communication from Mazda once their vehicle leaves the port. This is NOT a mass e-mail sent to all Pre-Sell customers. Each e-mail is VIN specific and matched with an "official" Pre-Sell customer - those whose complete customer contact information is entered into the eMDCS system.

The following copy is contained within the Pre-sell communication:

Great News! Your 2004 Mazda RX-8 has been released from its final U.S. port and is en route to your Mazda dealer. It will arrive shortly, so now is the time to call your Mazda dealer and arrange for delivery.

And as you know, Pre-sell customers have been anxiously awaiting the arrival of their cars, so once they receive their e-mail with the message above, you can definitely expect a call.

The 2004 RX-8 marks the next great addition to the Mazda Line-up and is truly a "halo" vehicle for your Mazda franchise. I am excited about the arrival of this great new product and look forward to sharing the joy of RX-8 sales success with you!
