Number2

So for those that haven't heard, I finally picked a car after researching and driving a bunch of cars.

After doing my homework, I went out for a test drive and fell in love. I knew right then that this is the car for me so I bought it the next day for a stellar price.

Behold...Mazdaspeed 3
Crystal white pearl with the Grand Touring Package. This car is pretty sweet.

Night of purchase


And 2 days later...tinted and debadged

Looking good man... clean...

Mouse

ya know.... it kinda has a somewhat similar look to the wrx 5-door hatch....especially with those wheels.

IDK....maybe its just me?

Number2

I was between this and the wrx. Both very good cars!

Mouse

yeah... fairly similar in look to the wrx 5door hatch.... but definitly less cost, less insurance, and better gas mileage than the wrx.

Nice choice paul.. I have always liked that car..

I remember you telling me you wouldn't drive a hatch back.

Next time I see you you'll have to take me for a spin. Looks sweet!

Congrats Paul! Those are badass, nice color choice

Dude I found a GREAT review of your car on Yahoo Autos..





Yo you hear that Paul-o??! ALL you need are some stiffer springs and pffft its all over for G35's son! Man add some strut bars front and rear and you could probly take LAMBOS

Also, less transmission headache than the WRX.

Number2

Yea, the 3 was def. my favorite over the wrx. Sitting in the rex felt too low with far too much headroom. Other pros are interior materials, exterior looks, low end torque. etc. etc.

The Subby is made for all out power, but there's just a few less mazdaspeed 3's on the road as it's a limited production car...esp. in white. I'd rather have that unique factor.

Good choice paully. lets go to bandi and race... and by bandi i mean any strip of street will do. go go turbo FWD.

From what i remember they only made that color white in the speed3 for 1 year so it's a rare find. i could be remembering wrong tho.

Number2

They introduced it half way through 2008 as a 2008.5 model. When I was looking, there were only (x6) 2009 models in white for sale in Colorado (at least that I could find).
