Voted, but you all do know what will happen if the RX-8 wins- it will just be another annoying thing that Mazda USA can put on their website boosting about how great teh 8 is...

... and how dedicated the 8 owners are to their car.

and the fact that we would notice that we came up from behind on the vote.

It isn't about the car anymore

I guess if you really care about the outcome you could spend all day doing this and put us in the lead.

If it tracks IP's also, then what about voting from a network sharing the same external IP? What it prohibit users from voting because the IP is the same?

Yep, that is why it waits for so long and lets a person back in.

Not sure what the time limit is as it doesn't seem constant. Might be more like 15 minutes.

It didn't yesterday at work and they are running a Proxy server.

We would need to post on the Mazda 6, the MPV, the tribute, and the 3 sites.

Where people need 4 seats...

It is tough to convice someone that has a 2 seater 2 door to vote on a 4 door 4 seat... functionality.

Although it does have a rotary engine going for it.

I'm not sure about all the IP mumbo jumbo in the above posts, but I can clear my cookies and vote again just as fast as my DSL service will pull up pages.

Still down by 326 votes, not really denting the lead at all considering we were only down by about 200 last week.

47% to 53%, up 1 % since 4pm today. Keep it rolling, Guys! Too bad it's probably all guys doing this voting for the '8. I imagine the female '8 owners couldn't be bothered with such a childish "macho" kind of event. Anyway, Guys, get back every 15 min and keep the votes going!
