come to think about it, i went to city mazda and ended up telling the sales man about the car. He didnt know his product. He was amazed with the car after i finished with him. He blamed it on being a part-time sales assistant.

The cap photo was me too....
Kas, I brought the car from city Mazda (closest to home and work) and they are ok..
The lady that sold the car to me was very good (It was Dianne Sewell) and she is now at John Blair Honda.
I am going to get my dad to buy an Accord Euro (should con him to buy an M5 :D)
Other saleman are shithouse... I dealed with the manager Patrick who is a good man - got the floor mat and did not charge me to put the custom rego (been to another car b4) to the RX8
I am happy ... eventually

Saying that we know the car better than the salesmen - I went to Brighton and Penfold for test drives .... to kill my itch before I have the car. They know the car but not AS WELL/INFORM as us
I show him how to switch off the DSC totally - by pressing it for 7 seconds until the slippary sign turns on. He does not know that at all!!! Not to say do they know any difference - they just tell us to keep it on?!

Tell me takahashi
I have to know why they were making you take delivery smack bang next to the fire hose.
Did they anticipate a flaming exit from the dealership :D
It looks good on you!
cheers, Kev.
