Wow, I'd write to the editor! lol. That must be some weird joke.

Lol Wtf ???

So was the article on the RX-8 or was it on the Mercury with just the wrong photos?

wow that mercury almost looks as good as my car:p

Gee that does look suspiciously close to the RX-8. It's even the Monterrey "RX-8" model. Mazda may have a lawsuit here. :eek:

holy chit! what a bunch of morons

The best part is that the whole article is about the Mercury Monterrey... Get me outta here!

they even spelled it wrong too, it's 'Monterey'.

Mike

yea thats pretty gay

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. wow. can u say. EFFIN dumb? seriosuly how can u mess up that badly. sheesh. good stuff.

..... ROFL that's a classic especially how they rolled the "rr"s on Monterrey and printed it!!

Don't you guys know ... the "M" insignia is the new Mercury symbol. Sweet, I wish my RX8 looked that good ... I mean with the amber corners and all.

Wtf?

do they even mention the RX in that article, aside from the large picture at the top that says RX-8

Dude, not even a blurb. :mad:

maybe tomorrow they'll have a story on the RX-8 and put pics of the mercury on it

Did they say good things about the car in the article at least? :p

Thats the new Monte(R)rey! (the sporty model of the Monterey) LOL! :rolleyes:

what paper is that?

It's my stupid local paper...

"The Laredo Morning Times"

....and the date??? I wanna request a copy. That is print journalism at it's best!

I'm sure this was printed for Nov. 4th 2004. I had taken the pics on the 7th with my camera phone. I had completely forgotten about these pics till like two days ago when I was making space on the phone's memory for other pics. I lost my copy of this paper like a month ago, I would have sent it to you that copy, sorry dude.

Damn, I wanted to e-mail them..

I'm thinking about trading my RX-8 for one of those mercury's

RX8Power

Gosh, talk about dumb...

Where are the editors in all of this? Do you know how many people at that newspaper had to have NO CLUE about cars, etc to not notice that HUGE mistake.

What would be even better is if somebody actually called up a dealership up after seeing the article wanting their Merc RX8...LOL LOL, I bet at least a few people thought it was right...LOL
