Pre-order book and letter - its arrived, pics and scan inside.

Since I was feeling nice and this showed up today I figured I would post it for everyone.






Book is very high quality. Not quite art print quality but at least 200 line prints. Tons of images inside (very high quality). 191 total pages.

Well, maybe there's hope for the rest of us yet, since you guys just now seem to be getting the book- I'm going to cross my fingers and hope it arrives on Tuesday now...

How did it arrive? (UPS, FedEx, USPS, Airbourne) or did it get sent to your dealer and you had to pick it up???

Good ole fashioned USPS. If you look at the address on the letter is a Langhorn PA which is about an hour from my house. Best guess is that they were mailed out on Friday and I just happened to live close enough to get it today.

I'm glad they made the Yamaguchi book for the RX-8. I've got them for the 2nd and 3rd Gen RX-7.

Unhappy

Now I have one hell of a dilemma!! I ordered my 8 in January and then moved within Savannah in late February. I never updated my new mailing address with the dealership that I ordered the 8 from. Now, when the book comes it will be arriving at my old address. I don't think that the USPS will forward this type of package. I wonder what will happen or what I can do to actually get this package. ARGH!!

any way you can pick it up at the old address? The USPS should be able to at least nofify you that they have it to deliver; you might try calling the old post office and ask - they may just be able to hold it for you or call you even to let you know it arrives!

Does anybody have an extra copy of the book for sale? It will not be made available to pre-order people in Canada because Mazda won't do a French translation (I learned this from Mazda Canada today) and they'd have preferred to make both official languages available.

Cool

Hey how about sharing the ISBN number so the rest of us can at least buy it when it shows up on Amazon.com.
I cant believe that this will be the only printing we will see of this book.
