Went to the local Mazda dealer.  Still no RX8s in stock.
Was told (again) that "it'll be about two weeks."  I would buy
one sight unseen except that I am 6 foot 2 and hate rubbing my
head on the roofs of cars, so I want to test drive it first.
Anybody know of a dealership in NJ with a demo model?  My
current car is fading fast.

As far as I know they are not in regular production yet.  Won't be until
later this year.  The ones that are currently ordered were part of a special
preorder campaign that Mazda had that ended around March. Each dealer has an
allocation ...some as few as one or two vehicles, and they had to be ordered
by a customer through the internet.

All the new RX8s you'll see for awhile are probably the deliveries from
these pre-orders.  It's possible though, that some of the preordered
vehicles may no longer be assigned to the original orderer (word? <G>) due
to lack of funds, moving, etc, and your dealer may have one or two to sell.

Best to check with your local dealer, and see what they have available.  The
first deliveries of this preorder should be coming in in about two weeks (my
dealer says they are expecting the first one on or about July 15th...mine,
being the second one ordered here in Rochester around the first of February,
should be shortly afterward).
