Hang on
For those of you who haven't received the book yet (that includes me), just give it a few days. They were probably sent out from a single location and might take a couple of extra days to get to certainparts of the country. i would guess if you haven't received one by the end of the week then you might want to follow up Monday.

Well, after all that ranting yesterday morning about not being a pre-order, I received my book yesterday afternoon. Very nice.
I'm still pissed about the pre-order thing though and my dealer hasn't called me back!

no book for me yet but it looks like they are hitting the west coast sporadically, one in san diego, one in tacoma washington etc. so i'm going to chill like boowana said and wait until at least friday. i'm a little worried though that since the dealer has screwed up a couple of things before that maybe he didn't enter my mailing address, i don't know if it was one of the mandatory fields or not

Who wants a book!? Yes I have mine and yes it is nice quality, bal bla bla. But come one. It is just a bunch on pics of the car, more history of the renesis, more how they car up with the concept etc... It is nothing that ll of us havn't read a thousand times now. I would have rather had anything but this book. All the other pre-order gifts were much better than this book. The US gets the shaft...again.

Arrived today!
Just after I posted that my dealer e-mailed me with my VIN# and told me to expect my book in the next week or so, my wife talks with me and said, "Guess what came today"? Yup, my book got here.
I was a little skeptical about receiving the pre-order gifts since my car was coming out of the dealer's allotment. But now it looks like I may end up getting all the gifts along with all of you that ordered the car through the pre-order sales program.
Still wish it could be a set of watches like the Europeans, instead of a die-cast model and/or a keychain, etc, we are due to get.

While I'm happy that we're getting any gifts at all, I also would've preferred getting a watch since I'm sort of a watch junkie, myself.
I had a terrible nightmare last night -- I dreamt that they told me I wouldn't be getting my car until December - LOL!

What do I have to do to get the book??
Is it to do with the preorder of the actual car??
Cuz I made my order, and I never got anything, is the book supposed to come up to Canada?

So I've been trying to get it into Mazda's head that the best gift they could give any of us to help our patience would be a copy of the owner's manual. Anybody else think that's a good idea?

almost got it
Mine has made it back to Mazda - they will now ship it to the correct address and I believe I'll get it maybe Friday (6/6). Or Monday (6/9).
Or ... (got an email from Ashley / rx8orders saying they had it back.
