A handsome update to an interesting car.
When the car was first released, I test-drove a loaded RX-8 Grand Touring with a 6-speed manual in nordic green with black-n-tan leather and really enjoyed the driving experience and absolutely loved the color combination. When it came time to talk price, the dealer wouldn't budge off of MSRP + ADM so I walked. Not surprising given that the car was a new release but I received a call back from the dealer 3 months later begging me to come back in and work on the price. No thanks.
Too bad the only place you can buy a new Mazda in my area is from a Mazda dealer (same for VW and Subaru) - decent cars, crappy dealers.

I had a similar experience. I really wanted the dark grey w/ th burnt sienna leather seats in the GT 6MT and the rotary accent package. All they had was silver w/ black seat w/ no accent package, or anything else I wanted...the fender strakes, etc. Well, dude wouldn't budge on the price, so I walked. Now I see that damn car everyday at least once guaranteed. :(
