Just wanted to say Hi to everyone. I just purchased a 2007 RX8 Sport MT6 this weekend. I traded in my S2000 for it and I must admit I'm glad I made that decision. I can now use my Bluetooth Headset and people can actuall hear me now

The deal I got was a dream deal for sure and I must say that the dealer was fantastic. Basically I saw an add for a 2007 for 20,988.00. Knowing that dealers do this to lure people in, I decided to bite. To my surprise, they actually had that vehicle on the lot but it was white. I previously had a white vehicle so though it was nice and I loved the way it drove, I left the lot and continued my search for my S2000 replacement.

After a horable experience at Nissan looking at a 350z (Man that new Blue is really hot) I went back Sunday evening to the Mazda dealer. I told the sales guy that if they gave me the Sunlight Silver one I would buy it now.

Long story short, the gave me the one I wanted at 20,988.00 and I walked out the door at 23,300.00 with a huge smile on my face. Its nice to deal with an honest dealer who actually tries to make the customer happy.

Welcome to the rotary world.
You got a great deal. People are paying more than that for leftover 06's.

But what is wrong with the white?

Thanks much for the warm welcome!!!

I'm normally a black person when it comes to cars. After years I decided to get a white truck because black shows dust so much and at the time I thought white didn't show dirt......well live and learn I guess. White does not show dust like black does, but it sure as hell shows everything else. After 3 years and tons of scrubbing, my front end looked horable between the splats and rock chips. After that I went back to Black, dust film 5m after washing it and all

White = No thanks for me. So this time I went for Grey

Welcome aboard Bravnik.

Grats on your purchase...that sounds like an awesome deal for a Sport. Also, if your car has the Bridgestone tires stock, don't count on people being able to hear your Bluetooth headset. Those things get flippin' LOUD when they wear...I can hardly hear myself think driving mine. Stoopid noisy tires! Have fun with her, and great color choice!
