20030530 for me...
Mazda has done a great job of sending out these e-mails just like they said, even though we know some of them are a bit late... |
Got the e-mail, manufacture date was 5-23 for Black Touring, VIN ending with 1058.
|
wow, great another new email.. guess I'm really off the pre-orders list.. I received the first three on time and early and then BAM it stopped after that.. havent received anything since then and after hearing from rx8orders that I am no longer on the list..
I am still wondering how in the world this has happened.. :mad: |
YAY! 20030530 for me.
Interesting: "In about 3-8 weeks, depending on where you live and shipping schedules, the port will release your car and it will be on its on the way to the dealer! We'll let you know as soon as that happens so that you can make arrangements to pick it up. " I'm surprised they'd estimate anything as low as 3 weeks..... |

05-23-2003 for my car (VIN ending in 1155). That's the earliest US build date I've seen so far. Also, I've been noticing that all of the automatics are low VIN's but not early build dates. I wonder where the VIN cutoff is.

How can I find out if it made the first boat or not?
|
Give your dealer your VIN and ask them to look up the status. Transit code 10 = New VIN, still at port.
Transit code 20 = On water |
I got mine.
05-30-2003. Does that mean, the car is in transit????? I've always assumed I was part of the 2nd allocation, since my order was finalized sometime in February. Would this make me part of the first allocation???? Did anyone from the 2nd allocation get this email???? I'm getting EXCITED........:) |
Probably not. I'm supposedly first allocation but I have the same build date as you. My car is still at port in Japan....
|
Got mine:
VIN: 00852 Build Date: 5/28 Port: Tacoma Tit Grey GT |
