I have machine grey and black, and I seriously thought about SRC and black. But I decided I don't want to attract attention to myself that way; SRC is a brash color, even more so on a big car; I was looking for something timeless and rich. This whole forum needs more pics so here's mine. BTW...

My 2017 GT has DRL and headlights on when moving...the car has to move before the lights come on, but it's both the center light and the DRL/Parking lights that illuminate. It even does this when stalk in "off" postion. I think this partially confirms bigtex and joe6864. Mazda's programming...

No, I don't mind the mod at all...looks bad.ass. I gotta say, though, I like the look of the new rims better than I thought I would.

That's interesting. If you look at machine grey in real life, subtle, striking, and very compelling. I liked the color at first glance, and have grown to love it over the past 2 days. It's amazing.

It does sort of shift hue in direct light, different angles, under street lights, etc. Sometimes it takes on a subtle earth tone to soften the starkness of grey. It's a trippy color, and I like it much more than I thought I would. That's me in the pic.

Yeah, the machine grey is a fantastic color. In some lights and certain angles, it's almost silver. In other lights and other angles, it's much darker. The metal flake is much finer than in some other Mazda colors. The finish is smooth and glossy, but it's almost as if the paint is a...

Brand.Spanking.New. Machine Grey, Grand Touring, AWD, Premium. This is a hard color to photograph well. Looks good in pics; looks better in person.

I was a banker in a former life and did a lot of car deals, and I'm a business/corporate attorney now. At 58 years old, I've been around this gig many, many times. I've never seen a dealer do closing documents on a car that was not present at the time of closing. I would never sign off on...

This is supposed to be a pics thread. Too much conversation, not enough pics. How about some pics of silver? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

You're not paying attention Kaps: in the first deal, the dealer ended up trading our lease car instead of us turning it in. He took about a $1,000 hit, which more than offset the $400 difference in the car he delivered. We came out on top because the dealer screwed up and had to find a fix and...

Excuse me? I made two mistakes? I fked it up?

I did not take the FWD car. I'm really tired of FWD, which is one reason I'm not gunning for a GTI, which would be my first choice. I could escalate to the principal, owner, or GM - but I'm in too hostile of a frame of mind at this point to behave the way I want to. I need to cool off.

I had a deal with Independence Mazda in Charlotte to purchase two vehicles, a 2016.5 for my wife and a 2017 for me, and was able to reach a good agreement on price. The dealership had to get both vehicles from other dealerships or incoming inventory. Car #1 came in a few days later, and after...

Eternal Blue - more vivid than I imagined...striking color. Machine Grey - not as bright as I imagined...but with parchment interior, it looks spectacular.

Original Poster Here - So seems like the pictures posts got a little wordy and critiquing design and rendering opinions. So I'm bumping the thread in the hope of getting more pics. How about silver, machine grey, etc. More pics please!

I saw some pretty good pics of the 2017 on the "Revealed" thread, but I'd love to see more - especially in colors other than red. So while you pioneers are encountering the 2017s in the wild, shoot pics and post here.
