I think 3% sounds right. Check out edmunds.com, they list regional prices. At least I think they do based on zip code. The dead of winter is the best time to buy a sports car. Just remember, you will either need to get winter tires or leave it parked whenever there's a chance of snow. For timing of last snow fall in St. Louis, it's not unknown to have snow in early April, but I'm thinking of switching back to summer tires in mid to end March FWIW.

It’s a done deal with Sunflower Mazda sponsoring the Rotary Revolution. They are bringing their supercharged rx8 to run her around the track a bit. They might even offer special pricing to folks at the show on those accessories you didn't get at the purchase table.
St Louis has 27 rotary powered cars coming to the show so far. It sure would be great to see more rx8's this year. The owner of this forum is from St. Louis :D
Come be a part of the largest gathering of rotary cars in the Midwest. Your $45 fee includes 3 meals and 2 days of race related fun, seminars, tech session, and rotary nirvana.
Plus, we have Mazda exec's to hit up with all your questions and concerns about your new car.

Do any of you guys have the base model AT that everyone has been advertising? Ive had a stick for three years and am tired of it. This would be my first car that I would buy on my own and just want to make sure Im not digging myself in a hole by not getting the sports package which includes DSC and (not sure what the other option is t/c?) Do any of you regret getting the a/t and not the m/t? btw..Im from OFallon IL and would prob drive to bommarito to get the car.

I'm thinking, I'm thinking! I would love to go, but with a family, there's a lot of issues with taking a whole weekend to indulge myself in rotary euphorea (SP?). I know the longer I wait the more it costs, but I won't be able to make this decision until closer to the event.

Have had my 8 since late last year (September/October-ish, and too lazy to look the date up), stumbled across the forums a couple of days ago.

I have been seeing more and more pop up. Unfortunely I do not have mine quite yet. Another two weeks and I should be getting it.
Spotting this morning 3:00 a.m blue on mid rivers mall dr and hopped on 70 east-anyone here?
BTW I reside in St.Peters and it looks like a lot of others do as well hope to meet up sometime when I get mine.

Greetings from Bridgeton. Owner of a brilliant black 6 speed w/ Grand Touring pkg. Have also seen a silver one with a front license plate 
in town and occasionally see the silver one driving in Florissant. Last night saw a blue one in Ballwin. I am particularly upset that I wasn't able to meet up with everybody at the get together in July. It looks like I would have had the only black 8 there! When's the next meet? We need to do it next time on a Sunday. I have to work Saturdays.

I am in the process of organizing another get together. The only problem with sundays is if we want to go to a dealership again they most likely will not want to do something on a sunday. I am thinking for the next drive it will be an only rx8 thing since the last time none of the 7 guys would talk to us.

Sunday is when the autox's are, but I'm up for any Sunday that I'm not racing. If we're to get any dealer sponsorship, I agree it needs to be on a Saturday.
Off topic, but did anyone else notice the add for Bommarito listed the sale price for an auto 8 at 22k in the suburban journals today? It seems like a good time to buy.

RX-8s in St. Charles
You may see me in the St. Peters, O'Fallon, and St. Charles area. I live in unicorporated St. Charles close to "South" O'Fallon, Weldon Springs, and Cottleville. I drive a brillant black GT with black and red leather, appearance package, rear spoiler, polished accents, and most unique fender stakes I just put on a couple of weeks ago.

My reply was a little confusing. I didn't mean most unique fender stakes. They are the Mazda stakes from the dealer. I the terms "most unique", I only meant unique, as in you don't see many RX-8 with them. Sorry for the confusion...

Plus BUMP, there are a lot of 8 owners in stl that are not posting here. The last autox event had 3 8 owners. Seth I know you post occasionally, but Richard please post (join iin on the sharing of info). And on the way home I saw two other 8s, I passed a silver/tit grey and saw a yellow on the outer road.
