Well, that didn't take long...

I'll pick up my MS3 GT in metro grey mica tomorrow afternoon. I test drove a black one locally, but i said i'd never buy another black car 3 black cars ago. And while red looks good too, it screams pull me over and give me a ticket. so, under the radar grey it is. I worked a deal over the internet for $157 dollars over invoice...not too bad i reckon. So even though i HAVE to drive 50 miles to pick it up, I GET to drive it 50 miles home!

Well, I'm not sleeping tonight!

Great pick up! and of course, you got the best picture . Post pictures when you pick her up!

Good job! If I'd offered my dealer $157 over invoice, he'd have laughed and said, "Next!"

So, did you get her yet??? I couldn't sleep the night before either!!!

lol i was excited to get mine, but i'm pretty sure i got a good amount of sleep the night before i picked it up.

i lost more sleep laying around trying to figure out if i should bite the bullet and get one now, or wait till when i was planning on buying and hope they came out with an 09.

i felt like a 7 year old on Christmas Eve! My MS3 GT is safe and sound in my garage...man, what a car. Tint will be next and then sometime down the line I think I'll go with the COBB SRI. I ended up getting it for $157 over invoice and then they tacked on $189 'advertising fee' -- whatever.

Anyway, great car; for once, I can't wait to drive to work!

My sales guy stated there will be a 09 MS3, he even stated they're taking orders on them, though the decision to build them is still kind of up in the air -- not entirely sure what that means. Something about it depends how well the new Mazda 6 does and then the redesign of the Mazda 3, i have to admit, after awhile, all i heard was bla, bla, bla.

you should have refused the $189 ad fee, but still, you got a good deal. enjoy your car.

OK, so most of us couldn't sleep... did anyone else invent errands or come up with other things/reasons to drive the car the first several days?

"What? We need a pizza? OK, I guess I'll go get it... What's that? You broke the tip off of your pencil? OK, off to Wal-Mart I go to get more..." LOL!
