Have you seen the new colors, stormy blue mica, copper red mica, metro gray and golden sand and how do they look? The metro gray has been talked about allot and I kinda get the feeling the sand will generate little interest here.
I really want to see the copper red. Is it similar to the copper red that was offered a few years ago?
How different is stormy blue mica from the aurora blue?
Or even how about the new sand color interior?
This one is copper red...I think it looks great. It's not a very good picture of it I'm waiting for the weather to change to get some better pictures...sometime in july...

I did find this photo of a 06 Miata in the copper red using Google Image Search

I do freaking like it. I thought the true red just did not look grand on the Mazda3 from the front view. It looked fine on the Mazdaspeed3 with the slightly different front grill and clip.
Yeah, sorry...here's another try

This is the only one I have for the moment. It really doesn't show off the color very well.

I fear I am becoming a pain, but your link is bad. Gives a permissions error.
I did find this photo of a 2008.5, and I think it is yours.

There is a dealer near me that has 2 Stormy Blue ones. I'm going to go take a look at them soon and see just how bad off I am in cutting out of my CX-7 lease early. The MPG on that is just killing me. 15 MPG with a city/hwy mix just won't cut it at over $4 / gallon.

Saw the copper red and the storm and golden sand at my dealer. Golden sand was in the showroom. Interesting color, not for me though. I think its more of an old man's color.

Sorry again. I give up yeah that's it. Not much for all the work (I even checked the link out before I posted it to make sure it worked.)
The wife picked out out over black and silver. Guess I'll stick to just reading instead of trying to post.

Don't do that. You are one of the few posters I understand that does not use all sort of acronyms I do not understand. ;)
