September 2010 is a lonnng time from now, but I wanted to do as much research on the car as I could, even though I know it's still over a year away. September is when my lease ends.
I'm thinking about ordering one directly from the factory, especially if Mazda might not have them on the lot by that time.
Also the next Rotary could come out by than

lol @ PSTNLSS
Well, for next year I think the "next Rotary" will be the different colour selections.

That Jersey dealership is very smart.
RX-8 is one of the poorest selling sports car today, period.
Bad thing for the dealerships, but good thing Mazda North America, as there won't be as much negative feedback on those surveys from the general public that bought the car and not knowing the maintenance that rotaries require.
After the first generation, I truly applaud Mazda's continuation of the rotary despite pitiful sales number and the amount of money they spend replacing/fixing the Renesis engines.
With that said, Don Miller Mazda in Madison has 4 RX-8s in the parking lot, and one in the showroom, that have been there for a few months now.

That's true, all this information helps even if I have to wait for the Rx-8 for awhile. I'm hoping Mazda won't come out with the next Rotary for awhile.
As Snickle said, it will probably be just the colors because I heard somewhere, Car and Driver maybe? that the next Rx won't be out until around 2011 or 2012.
I'll keep my eye out for the 2009's, I heard they had one at Ramsey too, but I drove into the lot and didn't see any
I'll guess I'll have to try again in a few weeks lol.
Thanks for the information guys, it helps in my "early" browsing for a car next year, even if it's just for fun, the Rx-8 is looking good!

I hope not. The RX series needs a redo with a stronger engine. It's being left in the dust, regardless of the fantastic handling.
