the dealer added the whole ms cometic kit , ms lowering springs and tokico shocks. the only performance mod was the ms sport muffler. The powder coated wheels match the bottom piece of the body kit, looks dope in person cant tell very much by the pics sorry. the sticker was close to 40k

will they have a veilside version at the dealership in the future? well, i just don't think those dealer should do such thing, since i couldn't even see the car in Mazda's official website, that means they are doing it with out the permission of mazda, you guys feel comfortable? i can get all the kits and **** under 10K, then y paying so much for it? why others don't do such but mazda, disgrace.....

Just to confirm, that 8 has the MS springs installed?
If so, cool I think I'm going to add them to my "Mazdaspeed" RX-8 next. I like the look of the drop.

THE PICTURES REALLY DO THE CAR NO JUSTICE. WHEN YOU SEE THE CAR IN PERSON IS WHEN YOU REALLY APPRECIATE THE MAZDA DESIGN TEAM AND THEIR EFFORTS IN TRYING TO PLEASE THE REAL MAZDA ENTHUSIAST. TO SOME PEOPLE WHEN IT COMES TO BEING HAPPY WITH A VEHICLE LIKE THIS, PRICE IS NOT AN ISSUE. PLUS NO MATTER HOW YOU CUT IT OR SLICE IT THERE IS STILL NOT A BETTER VALUE ON THE MARKET FOR A REAL SPORTS CAR.

down with the caps. I think its a matter of convenience more than price not being an option. Think about it. Would you spend an extra 5k for this car vs. buying a car with the factory options you'd like then spending the additional moeny to get the MS appearence?
To me, if I could do it all over again, I'd get a base model and build it up to a MS version.

GOOD POINT. I THINK YOU'RE RIGHT THE FACTORY AP PACKAGE IS SIMPLY GARBAGE COMPARE TO THE MS PACKAGE IF IT WHERE AVAILABE FROM THE FACTORY I WOULD HAVE DEFINITLY ORDERED IT ON MINE. THE DEALERS ARE DOING SOMEONE A FAVOR BY DOING IT FOR THEM VS. ORDERING THE PARTS, WAITING FOR INSTALLATION,HAVING THE SPOILER PAINTED,HAVING TO PAY CASH FOR THE MS KIT. SO WHAT IF THEY MAKE A PROFIT WHO DOESNT
