I hear you on the teal... can still see the Miami-Vice-blue Explorers with the green pinstripe. But Mazda is really playing up the red in the brochure... and the copper red is closer to red than teal blue to blue. Maybe I'm just trying to talk myself into it because it has the options that I want on the lot already.

But hey, if the copper is the one that makes your blood boil, go for it. Just be aware that at SOME point down the road, you or a potential buyer might go "wow, was this color that cool back in '07?" Or, it might not even matter after years of happiness and satisfaction with your copper CX-7. |

Replying to: needsomezoom (Dec 28, 2006 6:41 pm) We ended up with the Liquid Platimum FWD Grand Touring model in Oct. 2006. We have about 4300 miles and love it. Our last two trips in Oct. and Dec. going up in the Ozarks Mnts. We average over all gas milage of 25mpg in Oct. The weather was really cold and rainy in Dec. and we only average over all 23.8mpg. It is a blast to drive. At night it is especially fun with the lighting inside. It is a soft blue with red/black back ground. You feel like you are in a cockpit.

Truthfully, I would have taken almost any color but my wife really wanted red and was willing to accept white. The only other colors they had were maybe the Black Cherry or the Grey. I don't think any of them are really bad colors. I also like the fact that I ended up with an all black interior when originally we wanted the two tone sand.

Replying to: vbbuilt (Jan 25, 2007 12:07 pm) As for the dealer, I believe that it was just that it was under new ownership and since it was afterhours the sales manager was trying to figure it out himself. The actual service shop has been around and is located further down the road combined with a Mitsubishi dealer that I had good experiances with. I probably would have been uncomfortable with any dealer taking things apart to add the module and antenna on my brand new car. |

I just got off the phone with Mazda to complain about the fact that the Pearl White is a 200 dollar option and was informed that it is a more expensive process to produce the iridescent effect of the Pearl. He was also kind enough to let me in a "little known secret" that the Pearl has less drag than normal paint and therefore makes the car faster and more fuel efficient. So... eat your hearts out!!!!
