Which dealer was it? I've been trying to think of all of the Mazdaspeed dealers in your are. IRA, 128 Mazda, Sentry West Mazda (I think they only have the '05s). I know there is a Mazdaspeed dealer in Manchester, should see if a fellow NECEGer would swing thru and take a peak for you.
128 was pushing me on trade in as well as trying to stick me in a crappy used Miata for about a thousand less than the new one. I went with Gallo in Worcester because they made the numbers work on the new Miata. The day I bought the car, I got a cocky little call from the sales rep at 128, I let him know that he lost the sale.

128 doesn't have any MSM left and I don't like them anyway. The sales guys don't know anything about their own cars. They tried to convince me that the MSM was only 5 HP more than an LS. Try 34 HP! 128 has consistenly been losing their "specialty car" privileges. They are no longer a MazdaSpeed dealer and 128 Ford is no longer an SVT dealer.
Ira is my next stop. I drove a V-Red with cloth a couple weeks ago up there and I think they still have it. I'm just not in love with the red. It calls too much attention to the car. The T-Grey is a much better color, IMO.
The place we went to today is Mazda Gallery in Norwood.
If you know of any other dealers with MSM, let me know!

I sent an email to Grappone on a T-Grey 2005...they have about 3 of them. I laid it all out for them about the trade and we'll see if they come back to me with a reasonable offer.

according to another CEGr, Tom, Vachon has one in red.
Wellesley Mazda has only one Miata and its a base model, drove by it today.
Mazda Gallery has about 7 2005s and 3 2004s. the 04s are grey/cloth (the one i almost bought), red/cloth, and red/leather. the 2005s are orange/leather (x2), black/leather (x2), and red/leather (x3)
I'll look into Vachon, Grappone, Ira, Sentry, and Talarico.
Thanks Ryan! I think Ira or Grappone will be my best bets because they have access to Nissan/Infiniti internally or do a ton of volume and will be able to resell the G20 without having to go wholesale.

i think it is a great color, just not for me. i'm really not into the flash. that's why i don't like the red as much as the grey or the black. i didn't mind it on the SVT or the Saab because they are sedans and look pretty ordinary to begin with. but on a small convertible, it's just asking for way too much attention from all the wrong people...

it looks even better in person. the web graphic doesn't do any of the colors justice.

Can anyone sponsor me for a FoMoCo "plan" like X-plan or something? I know they have programs for people who work at Ford, but aren't there friends and family programs too?
Help a brutha out!
