Last weekend got a 2007 Mazda5 GT pearl white, espresso leather, no other options. Paid $21,063 before tax, plates, and $195 "vehicle admin" (ie, full tank o gas and wash). I had S-Plan pricing through work which is the same as invoice pricing on Edmunds.com. They added about $500 over...

I bought a Mazda5 from them last weekend. My sales guy was great and I would definitely do business with him again. That said, there are a couple of points to mention: 1. I have no experience with their service department 2. They low-balled my trade-in, so I decided to sell privately, no big...

Hi ansatzjp - where did you end up going? Also, what % tint did you get and where? I'm thinking about doing the same thing. Thanks!

I'm in the process of buying a car from them. I've dealt with Wellesley, 128 and Tallarico (Manchester NH) as well.

Hey Simmadown, Got your PM but I thought I would post for all to see (nana) I'm here in Salem and I think it would be cool to get together. I haven't been too active around here lately - just got a new job and my commute sucks, so I don't have a lot of spare time to mess around anymore...

Yeah I had good luck with peanut butter. I had to reapply after a week or so because the white spots came back. That's why I switched to Zaino car wax. That stuff is so forgiving. It doesn't matter if you get it on the plastic or your windows. It buffs off so easily and doesn't leave...

I've had mine a few months now without any problems and I even keep them on during the day. Check the Sylvania site's product comparison at http://www.sylvania.com/ConsumerProducts/AutomotiveLighting/Products/ProductComparison/default.htm and you'll see the SilverStars have the lowest rated...

I installed Sylvania Silverstars a couple of weeks ago and I didn't have any problems with the prongs. However, I agree with Kurt that it was really painful to get the passenger side bulb in and out. I left a substantial amount of flesh and blood in that little crevice. Good thing my hands...

mcstark - yeah I agree with you that the taller sidewalls don't do much for cornering. What PSI do you keep them at? I inflate mine to 32 since thats what it says in the manual. When I took my stock Dunlops off, I noticed their inflation was down to 27-28. I gotta do a better job checking...

Hey thanks Ryan! I just sent an email to NEPOC...

Hey all - my first post! I put my winter tires on last weekend and I'm ready for the snow. Last year I got Pirelli 210 Snow Sports (195/55/R15) on Borbet rims and I was pretty happy with the ride. Snow and water traction much better than the Dunlops. The Pirelli's are noticeably louder on...
