Does anyone know how to put the ringtone on your phone once you have downloaded it to your computer?

Well, it seems pretty clear that the "Zoom-Zoom" theme is one of the most sucessful ad campaigns Mazda has ever done.

Personally, I love the song. Very catchy, very Reggae. Very upbeat.

What's not to like?

"what's not to like?"

it is so annoying it is boaring a hole in my brain

reggae? reggae is more Carribean (combo of French/Dutch/African), it is really just an African music style (very South African/Swaziland style)

I'm just being an ***, smile

It is going to depend on your phone. I have the Mot V600 - so it accepts MP3 ring tones. I also have the USB cable, so I just have to copy it from my computer onto my phone.

I believe there are websites that allow you to upload a ring tone and then go get it via your phone's browser.

I also think there is a way to message the ring tone to your phone.

In the end it is going to depend on your phone and your wireless provider. Search howardforums for more info.

ARE YOU SERIOUS?? The only thing in the world more annoying than "Zoom Zoom" is the freaking ringtone. It makes me want to rip people's heads off.

Someone at Mazda must have thought it sounded like "Zoom Zoom".

The lyrics are:

Zum, zum, zum Capoeira mata um


Something about Capoeira killing one person.

It was featured in a movie called "Only the Strong".
Holy crap, MazdaManiac... Thanks for the info. That is sure to score you some points in some board game... in hell.

His username is obviously appropriate considering he knows the origin of the Zoom Zoom song!

OK, here is the universal key in sequence (zoom zoom beep), I had to convert it myself, so it is not exactly the best, but it will do.

Code:
*5d4*5d4*5d4*5d4r4*5f4*5f4*5f4*5f4*5f4r4*5d4*5d4*5d4*5d4*5d4r2r2r2r2
Go here for 4 MP3s of zoom zoom ring tones.

WTF? I don't see it in the "top right corner" on mazda.com ?

Do you have to go to another page within the site ?

http://www.mazdausa.com has a link to the ring tones. It eventually takes to you to this site
http://www.foxhome.com/zoomtones/
which of course takes you to this site
http://www.midiringtones.com/rington...c.aspx?aid=186

If you have a phone that takes MP3 ring tones, you can get all of them for free :D
