Congrats!
 
No worries, around here, convertible season is right now! July and August are just way too hot and humid.
 
Fall is the ideal season. You have nearly 3 months until the official start of winter.

I live in Charlotte, NC and we had over 77 days of high 90's and very humid and over 7 days in the low 100's. It's finally cooled down to the 80's and I can finally enjoy driving with the top down. Loving it!

Hey that's awesome! That color really shines. My Galaxy Grey Mica on order was purchased based on seeing a 07 Blue Mica which was the only one in my region. If mine comes in 4.5 months I will be thrilled. I'm being told 6 months. I did receive acknowledgement the other day from the dealer who mailed to me the Mazda confirmation sheet showing production date and VIN#. Now I'll be watching for the other dates on the sheet to fill in. After conversing with some people on this site I was doubting what my dealer told me about placing the order into the Mazda system. It really does work like he told me it did so I'm happy about that. Enjoy driving that beauty for another month or so. Does the top work as effortlessly as it looks? Congrats

The Galaxy Grey Mica was my first choice,my wife really wanted me to go for the Copper Red but I couldn't see me in that color (although its nice)but when I saw this lady in Minnesota picking up her stormy blue,I was sold. When I got back home to northern Ill. I went right to the dealer and put money down on the only one they had allotted for the
'08's first shippment.The top works like a dream,I love to show it off to everyone I see. And last monday it was pouring rain when I went to work,so for the first time I drove with top up,no leaks and the sound system is much more intense,but i'll take a nice day with the top down any time . when I put it down its very quiet also,not sure if i will get 3 more months of top down weather but I'm gonna go as long as I can.

I wish I lived in an area that has a little less cold weather than here in northern Ill. but I'm stuck here for a while, we don't get too many snow days so I'm going to put some good winter tires on it and drive it all year,we do get a lot of warm spells through out the winter,but your right this time of year is perfect

So how long did you wait to get your PRHT? I'd drive it top down as much as possible, winter or not. Isn't that what heated seats are for! HA... Enjoy

I was very lucky. I went to the dealership and they had ONE in Brilliant Black Clearcoat sitting on showroom floor. I grabbed it and love it....

Ordered on May 28, delivered on Sept. 29th the dealer by me said he had one "08 PRHT allotted for them so I was able to put the options that I only wanted on it,and I put $3,000 down to make sure I would get it, there were a few around he could get for me but they didn't have the color with the options I wanted,they were all sports with the ground effects package and didn't have the performance package 2,I figured I'm going to have this toy for a while so I didn't want to settle for what they could just find for me,and I'm glad I waited because the "08's have the 6 disc changer at no extra cost,the seat risers & tire moniters also,it was the longest 4 months of my life,and I will bundle up put the heat/heated seats on and drive top down every chance I get What are they telling you on delivery date?

I'm looking at Jan-Feb 08. Ordered in mid-August. It is very difficult waiting, I fully agree with you. I didn't want to settle for color or options either thats why I ordered too. Thanks for sharing your information. Using this forum helps get through the "waiting" period!

The BBC really shines. That was my second choice just because my last three new cars have been black so I had to get something different. It is super-sharp though. Congrats
