Okay, so after browsing several wheel maker sites... I'm still not sure if I should go Gunmetal or Hyper Black (on RX-8 5-star wheels) on my soon to be delivered Crystal White Pearl MS3. The wheel maker sites (for color reference) don't offer GM or HB on the same wheels... so I can't clearly...

Unless, there's a way to get my buddy to grab them from you locally... it's 3-day freight from you to me at $240.00. That's figuring 10 lbs. each and loose object freight. PM sent anyway... warning, don't be insulted by my offer. :D I still gotta figure chemical/blast stripping them, powder...

Bunch of info on oil here too... http://www.bobistheoilguy.com All the info made my head hurt, just like I was told it would by the person who forwarded the link to me. What it boils down to (for me) is... sticking with my standard routine of switching my lubrication needs over to Astrogli...

Ahhhh... dude. This doesn't sound good (no pun). I pick my MS3 up next week and then have a 2k mile round trip the week after. I thought I'd be groovin' with the tunes in a quality system.

Well... it's gonna be a CWP MS3 GT for me! :D I pick it up next Wednesday. Now on to figuring if the iPod thingy is worth getting, on to the Audio section! ;)

Busted. :D Nah. I do like the blue, it's just not me. Me thinks the white looks kinda JDM... ya know, like the Type R when it came out. With the right tint and wheels... white is right. Damn those near racist comments! LOL!!! :)

I'm secure in my masculinity and all, but that blue just wasn't for me. Don't get me wrong, it's a nice color on the car... for someone else. Besides, I've never owned a blue car. No need to start now. We'll see in the morning as to which dealer plays the white car(d) right. Hmmm... that...

Hahahah... no doubt. My buddy said the same thing today, once he found out I was shooting for white first.

Yes, well... it was a generalization. I doubt any sticker will ever say "yyyy.5". Maybe I should have stated, "...none came up as a Mid-Year Product Enhanced model." :)

I'll just say midwest for now. ;) Actually, many dealers are about to receive their '08.5 MS3's. So anyone looking should really inquire with Mazda USA to find out what some dealers don't already know. :D It's been a bit of a negotiating hassle, as I'm requesting the chosen vehicle be...

+1 on that. According to the Mazda USA customer service rep I spoke with and the Mazda USA shopping assistant I chatted online with, this is true. They searched 26 MS3 VINs for me and none came up as 2008.5... all had build dates of November or December.

Hello all. I'm about to pull the trigger on a 2008.5 MS3 GT. My choices in order of purchase availability are: Metropolitan Gray Mica (today), Black Mica (Friday), or Crystal White Pearl Mica (Saturday/Monday). The BM is an ok and safe color choice given the stock silver wheels. However...
