I got my car Thursday night and have put 500 miles so far!
Here are some Pics on the streets of San Francisco..

Congrats on the new baby, brothervoodoo. Love the shots, especially the ones at the Palace of Fine Arts. That's a favorite place of ours as we got married there. The Golden Gate Bridge shots are nice enough for a magazine ad!

Hope to see you at our next meeting. Please suggest at venue in the RX-8 Club thread.

 

I love the color. congrats. Did yours come with the strakes they look great

 

I ordered the strakes and put them on myself. They are fairly easy to install and add a nice touch to the car. :p

 

Congrats, brothervoodoo. That Ti Grey sure is a nice colour isn't it? :D
Care to share first impressions?

 

That's so great that your car came in! It really looks awesome in those pictures.

So, wanna share with us all the sordid details of your buying experience? I know you had to do a lot of maneuvering to get what you wanted.

 

I'm jealous. That's exactly how I want my ride.

Congrats.

 

Thanks. Well I don't think I can add to what has already been said. I am very pleased with the ride and the car performs well at high revs, you zip along to 100 before you realize. The car still gets a fair amount of attention in the city, it is has been evident when I was sorting out my financing or getting a coffee. When the car is standing still people really focus on it and make a lot of positive comments. The one I've heard a few times "oh, that's that James Bond car!" Ha!.. they think it's a Vanquish... LOL! Some are shocked it's a Mazda, I think many assume it's an 80-100K car when they see it. I think the appearance package without a spoiler throws people off, they don't think it's a japanese car...
