it will be strange returning the car and getting a new one, but the saleperson is talking about a great deal. I told him I would need to get at least $2,500 off sticker because that was the value of the service and debit card based what people were saying. He agreed and then his sales manager said since we have already made money on the first car that they can deal alot more on the second. Also, because I will be paying cash for the car - so financing to deal with.

Waiting for the letter...
I haven't received my letter yet. I'm currently out of town (can't drive my 8...boo hoo...stuck with a Pontiac GP rental). If there's no letter when I get back to town on Friday I'm giving my dealer a call.

Bought mine on 8/23. No letter yet. Wonder how long it will take. I'll most likely keep it, but I'll wait until closer to the deadline to decide.

...got the letter 9/2 then, interestingly enough, the dealer calls minutes later to ask who I like my car!
....I do like my car - and - I'm holding my letter.

Read the letter from Mazda about the RX-8
You can read the actual letter from Mazda about the horsepower issue. Just in case you haven`t received yours yet.

Received my letter today, Friday 9/5. Postmarked 9/4 from Lansdale, PA.
Now, all I need is my car (and mug set).
edit: I just read through the letter and my two options are to take the $500 + free maintenence or to get my deposit back. No offer of a buyback.

Purchased on 8/2, still no letter, and getting more impatient everyday. Before anyone says it, I know I can call the 1-800# to expedite the letter, but why can't Mazda just get the letter to me without me calling! People who purchased later than me already have received the letter. That absolutely makes NO sense.

strictly wild rumor
Talked to my dealer today to tell him I was keeping my RX8 (he said he wanted to know). I told him I'd sell mine back to Mazda if he could give me $2,000 off a new one to cover the $500 Mastercard and the free maintenance. He started laughing and said he's selling everyone he can get his hands on for MSRP.
Anyway, he said that the regional Mazda rep mentioned that those that keep their cars may get "something special" from Mazda in addition to the money/maintenance. I asked him what that "something special" was, but he said it would be worth it to keep the car, but wouldn't tell me what it was. He said Mazda wanted to reward those who were loyal.
Of course, he said we woudln't hear anything until after the Oct 1 deadline.
Hmmmmmmm??????

Something special eh.. the only special thing I would consider worth something would be the missing ponies.
If it's some crappy little trinket, like a thermos, a die cast car, or some other doohickey, why insult us?
