Default Question

I ordered my NB tC a couple of months ago and I'm getting a little impatient. Are the NB's a little less popular that they don't make too much of them?

I'm considering telling the dealer to keep an eye out for Flint Mica as well just so my chances of getting the car is a little quicker.

But which seems to be more popular in general? Flint Mica or Nautical Blue? as in which do you think is produced more?

Flint Mica is the most popular color and has the highest manufacture along with the Silver. The blues both Azure and Nautical are manufactured in smaller numbers, I think they told me that AP was only 3% of the total run. I started out wanting AP, changed to FM, and bought an AP. Think about it for a bit, your car will be original no matter what you get bcus it is yours, but if you stick with NB, which I see very few of here in So Cal, you will definitely be different as there are fewer of those than the others colors. I was even surprised to find that they manufacture more of the BCP than the blues.

What ever you choose, you will be happy so best of luck.

Tell them if they dont get it within a few weeks, you gonna buy mazda 6 instead. That will make them work harder. You are the client and you are the boss. Dont be afraid to go to other dealers.

I dont see any here in Houston, but i live on the north side, and dont get out to much (school sux) but tC's are starting to show up more and more. I saw four in one day last week, I couldn't believe it, I think its cool, as long as the ricers stay away.
