Well, I know I'm not blind, and I know I can see a circular shape where I circled around the oil cooler opening.. Anyone else see it?

I'm not thinking it's a fog light. Look at it from this angle.

While I see a small circular area I don't think it's a foglight unless its recessed a bit. The lines of the new face are pretty obvious. Moreso now that altspace posted the other shot while I was working on the previous one.

Please excuse the crappy lines but drawing with a mouse sucks and I'm not supposed to be doing this at work anyway.

Evidently the dash has a lot more changes than previously thought.
Enough to keep it covered.

I love you, have my babies?

So this would be speculating for the 2009 year, correct? So they should start taking deposits for these guys Mid 2008 and start seeing them at the lot end of 08? This may just be the last straw for me.. depends how they add this 'power'.

I don't know about the rest of you, but I'm pretty excited.

GIVE ME MORE EASY_E1!!!

Well this is the latest. You might want to sit down.

"We got a little more info on your two 8s yes you have two. There are several dealers they are being passed around to. Each dealer will have one two different times (that's the plan) and one of them has the 16B in it.
They will be back in April or May if all the improvements can be made by then and will stay into the summer. Supposedly they are having a heating problem with the 16B (sound familiar) and want to test it in the worst failure markets they have."


Now this is just what is being told to me.

If you new that info, It would make me have to kill you.
By then a lot more info will be out. Mazda will have shown what they have in Detroit and all this will be pushed under the carpet.


The answer to your question is in my post.

Exactly what I was told by someone who I won't name, and wasn't going to say anything until you said it yourself, and confirmed what he told me. But, he also stated to me that they were having a heating problem with the 16B, and couple of other things that I won't bring up. Well, 20 more days until the 2008 Detroit Auto Show!

Does this mean there will be potentially more recalls again?

Nobody payed this post much attention, but I am curious as to what everyones opinion is. This looks probable to me?

That picture looks very plausable, wouldn't doubt if it is the new 8.But the picture looks too blurry though, it could be a nicely done photoshop.
