Just seeing how many people already ordered one? And when is the time the dealer told you that you'll get it?

Thanks for the welcome. I am a very active on the rx7 forum(www.rx7forum.com) myself and this forum seems to be very similar(preaching the search feature, lol). Stop by that forum, there are lots of people there with all kinds of cars, especially mazdas.

well I don't preach the search feature.....you just drew that welcome....you could have gotten the other one...lol it goes like this:

Welcome to our happy little corner of the net, and to our Club. There are TWO BIG fridge'S in the corner with anything you can think of in them...help yourself...of course only take what you can LEGALLY have.

make yourself at home on one of the big fluffy couches, kick your shoes off, put your feet up on one of the tables, yes we are allowed to do that, mom don't care....and take it easy.

oh...btw....every once in a while a food fight breaks out...so you may not want to wear nice clothes here.

Welcome!!

I really don't believe Mazda dealerships have their act together when it comes to delivery dates of any vehicle...especially the MSP.
They made me wait over a month beyond what they originally quoted me. Yet there was nothing special about my car. The only excuse they used was the colour and being a 5 speed was very popular. Actually had to wait for one to come over from Japan.
Only thing positive that came out of it was that they gave me a loaner while waiting since I had sold my previous car based on the delivery date.

But that is true for every dealership..not just Nissan or Mazda.
I totally agree that ever customer should be treated this way. I don't know if it's a Mazda thing. But on several occasions I hear of people getting the run around from local dealerships...in this part of Canada anyway. However there is still a chosen few Mazda dealers here that that pride in there service here. I now drive way out of my way just to be serviced by a dealer who cares about my business. Unfortunately I didn't know which dealers provided good service until after I signed the contract. I know next time around I will be inquiring about a dealership before stepping foot inside. Just my 4 cents...U.S. exchange rate kills us. lol

Since this thread never got on topic, I guess I'm not putting it back on topic, but anyway...

I'm getting one. My dealer told me I'd have it in September. Then October, then early November, then late November, then "any day now", now end of December (but if not the end of December the January sometime.)
