"two rotors"

Thanks for the info, and I PUBLICLY TAKE BACK ALL THE 'DIS' I GAVE YOU.

I think it's best when you know something or have access to it is to share the info, particularly on the subject matter on anything new to the RX-8, IF you are not prepared to share it then don't mention it in the first instance, or expect a reaction.

Even though they are Canada Specs, it's still the same for the rest of the world, so, no new/update RX-8 for 2008, I am surprised and then again...not.

It appears Mazda are going down the MX-5/Miata road, where it was about 7 years before any real change and 14 years before a platform change.

Maybe if we all sign a petition then Mazda will produce an MS8 or at the very least an improved 8 for '08. Or we could all threaten to sue, that would probably work better.

They should bring winning blue back and make the moonroof optional in the US too.

Pretty stupid not to have an optional moonroof when the car has zero headroom to begin with. Unless mazda believes tall people don't like leather?

Nah, Lightning Yellow must remain exclusive to us first year owners. They are only allowed to bring yellow back for a Mazdaspeed version.
