Yes, but they're not RX-8's. Mike was talking about other cars in his inventory report. Sorry.

I think any Vin lower than 3313 will show on water when it is updated.
That would definitely be cool. Budaman, here's my VIN. If you don't think the registry will be updated until tomorrow, then could you run it for me at that time? I'm in the 2nd allocation, car was built June 4th, so I'll keep my fingers crossed .

JM1FE173340102626

Thank you in advance!

I think this lookup is way behind.....I have some cars that are on the water in which i can see on my inventory printout and when i do a vin lookup is says its not shipped......I might just be blind and looking up the vins in the wrong spot....

Hey everyone!

I just checked to see if there had been any status change in reports, but alas, none.

I have 12 of your vins that I'll run in the morning to see if there is any change.

Keep you posted

How about a baker's dozen? Here's an East Coast VIN for your collection: JM1FE173240101130

Thanks, Budaman.

Good Morning All!

The following Vins are showing a 20 in transit code at present.
1130,1308,1317,2064,2170,2192,2520,2787 & 2975

These Vins are still showing a 10 code
1535,2626

This Vin is not showing built yet
5469

On my inventory report the units that were on the first boat are now showing @ Port. They are still showing a 20 in the warranty report.

Yes everyone, there are RX8's on US soil finally!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Also, it doesn't look like the second group of cars bound for the East Coast ports has left Japan yet.

Hope this helps, your dealer can get you more up to date info from his inventory report. I can't pull up other dealers reports.

Have a great morning!

Mine being the '2626' VIN. But if what you're saying is right, there still might be hope because mine is headed for the east coast. Is there any info on when the east coast boat will take off?

The 2 Vins that were showing a 10 status were both bound for Port Jersey. I can't get any info on Eastbound boats. Of the Vins that were a 20 status, 1 was bound for Port Jersey, 1 to Port Jacksonville and 1 to Port Honolulu. The Jersey & Jacksonville cars had very low Vins so they were probably on the first boats to the East Coast. Sorry I can't be of any more help to you East Coasters.

I know I didn't make the first boat to Jacksonville but will be on the second. If you get a chance run JM1FE173340101850 to see if status has changed. Then we willl know if the East Coast ship has left Japan.
Thanks budaman

Its still showing a 10 status. The warranty screen that I can access Vins other than my own has not been updated yet. I'll run the East Coast Vins again tommorrow and see if anything changes. Its amazing in this day of computers that updates cannot be made instantly!

Despite being owned by Ford, Mazda appear to be doing their best to remain inscruitable.
