It may not be new, but it was new to me... Shown during coverage of the Italian GP at Monza on SpeedChannel.

RX8, Mazda6 and Miata (and possibly others) in a large garage-ish looking area, the M6's headlamps project a film on the wall of Mazdas in various races with a voiceover that says more Mazdas are raced on weekends than any other brand... Guy comes into the room and grabs a set of keys, and then races off in an '8.

Is this an old commercial that I'm seeing for the first time or a new one?

 

new to me, you know the only time I ever see rx8 ads is on speedvision during a non-nascar race

 

Never seen it. The only 8 I've seen on the tv recently was on Wheel Of Fortune as a prize, but I'm not sure if it was a repeat.

 

Anyone have a copy of it or a link to it?

 

This sounds like a new ad. We need a link.

 

Before I posted this thread I looked on youtube and on the mazdausa site, but to no avail.... I've got it on my VCR but that doesn't do us any good since I have neither the knowledge base nor the equipment to transfer it to the online world.

 

well, thanks for nothing then... <LOL>

Hey, I tried.

 

I've seen this ad. I like it. Maybe I can record it an post it? Im watching the Star Mazda series right now and I am pretty sure they will show it.

 

What channel is that on???

 

Sorry it was a race I have saved on my DVR. Speed channel is where it airs.

 

Here is the link- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IZumEShOEXM

 

Nice commercial...video quality on that link leaves something to be desired, but still that's flippin' awesome. And the 8 looks great at the end.

 

Digital Camera recording the TV FTW.

 

They need to air that commercial on other channels as well, its a cool ad for sure!

 

Never seen it before. but i still think they should go back to those cool commercials they used ot create in the early 90s with the rx7's. the FD going through a salt flat and going straight through a large desert tornado.

 

Thats a new one to me too. At least they are advertising a little bit.

 

never seen it but no thrill to it like the zoom zoom commercials

 

I thought it was a cool little ad; sends a message about the pedigree of the Mazda line, not just a specific car. and sort of says "non-enthusiasts need not apply". plus the rx8 at the end looks just like mine

 

thanks for the link, nice vid.
