Smile Black and Titanium @ Performance Mazda

I went by yesterday, and a Titanium and a Black RX-8 were on the lot at Performance Mazda in Ottawa.

The Titanium one is mine. Pick up is 4:00PM today! My wait is almost over!

I'd like to apologize for the rain.
I spent most of sunday washing, cleaning, polishing and waxing my 8. It hasn't really stopped raining since I finished and is apparently effecting all of eastern Canada.

I'll be sure to warn people before I do that again! :D

Dammit Jasper, what were you thinking?

Oh well.. I managed to get 4 coats of Zaino Z02 onto the car in the first week I have it, so I'm well protected until the rain goes away.

I went by performance to check out the titanium, it's a lot lighter then I thougt. They were in the process of washing the car but I still got a good look. Nice...... it looks awsome with the strakes. I have the same configuration on order (still no vin tho' ) I then went to Argus to see the winning blue (my other choice). It also looks very good specially in the shade, it makes it look darker. In the full sun, I find it becomes too flashy/boy racer, I'm happier witht the more subduded look of the titanium. BTW the black/tan inserts seems to look more luxurious then just black.

Bank st. got a TON of cars. 1 Titanium, 1 Red, 1 Silver, 1 Yellow, 1 Blue.

Maybe more but they had every colour but black. Originally I wanted the Titanium but it was lighter than I thought and not as flashy as I first thought. The tan is classy but I didn't really like it all that much. I'm glad I got the red now!

I took the car to a car show in Kanata tonight.... LOTS AND LOTS of attention!

I added for appearance:
Front Rotary crest
Rear Rotary crest
Air outlet garnishes
Cargo liner
Cargo net
Shock alarm sensor
Inner door protector

All totaled, a bit over a grand + tax. I think that Performance Mazda is giving all the RX-8 buyers a watch like mine, I saw the one they were giving to the guy who bought the blue 10 days ago.

I don't know about the car show in Orleans, I live in the west. I am also going to be out of town for the next few Mondays.

Nice car, md...I believe that may be the car I had dealer traded to Performance so that I could get their Ti Grey with NAV.... only mine ain't here yet...

So, you're welcome :D

I'm in Kanata md, I'd like to see that inner door protector.

Man, maybe I'll go to performance for some extras. Although apparently Pembroke gives a good deal.

I can't believe performance gives everyone a watch and I basically just got screwed around. I won't be returning to Bank St. for anything, except to use the coupons they gave me.

Performance Mazda was claiming that the watch was something that they were doing, not just something free from Mazda corporate. It's hard to tell what's true, but it was a nice touch.

And on the back of the watch it says:

MAZDA

1969 - 13A 655cc x 2 ROTOR
