Yes, we've seen it before, thanks for the reminder. Do you understand Japanese?, cause I don't get the first part and I don't like that song. So I just turn down the sound and pretend the Japanese guy is an RX8 and I enjoy it. As long as an 8 is in motion it's a good thing!

Check out the video part of the forum and you'll be able to dl a hard drive's worth of videos.

I can't read Japanese, but understanding the video is easy.

The man recalls his childhood. He remembers riding his bike, and playing with his toy Mazda RX-7 car, then he realizes he's all grown up....

He bought an RX-8....

He gets married....

He finds that he loves the car and it suits him well...

One scene shows himself thinking: "Man, I am the KING!"

And the rest of the video is easy to understand.

Mazda has, in the past used toy cars of RX-7's in their videos, because we, well most of us are grown up now, and we remember the RX-7 back in its' day.

Talking to people older than me, they all say the 1st Gen RX-7 was THE car to own back in it's day. More so than any Mustang, Camaro or anything of the like...

That is what the video is trying to imply.

That is what the cars' target market is geared for. Older enthusiasts who need a more functional car for a young adult with a family. But you should know that already...
