    1st Maintenence

    Warrenty covers fixing things, not normal maintence, ie. changing fluids, plugs, etc. Unless when you bought the car you got an extra package for oil changes or maintence stuff...

    what's a good price for a 3??

    Yeah, I've done the website "build your car"...it works out to about the $484/month for 60 months for the gt w/ gfx ...that's without freight,pdi, dealer admin fees, the negative trade-in....so it works out that I'm paying a good $550/mon no matter what I'm looking at (mazda or mitsu), actually...

    Mazda 3 vs. Lancer Ralliart

    They wanted ~545/month for 84 months...which is ludacris... ...I'm finding it pretty sad how the only dealer/salespeople that are willing to try to help us out are Saturn...but unfortunately I don't the Ion, and am not crazy about going with a Vue...I think the general idea we're getting now is...

    what's a good price for a 3??

    Hey, well I've decided to go with mazda, but they don't seem to be very negociable on the price...as it stands I'm looking at $531 for a sedan gt with gfx and leather that's on the lot, or $507/mon for a sedan gt gfx with cloth... This includes $-4000 equity on the trade-in( stupid saturn), and...

    Mazda 3 vs. Lancer Ralliart

    Goodday...well yesterday was dealing day...(bicker) and the decision is made...mazda wins...why? 1) slightly nicer interior 2) both cars drive very similarly and the most important part of it all 3) mitsu kept trying to f**k me over by having me pay $38-40,000 for a car worth $20,000-25,000...

    Mazda 3 vs. Lancer Ralliart

    Hey, I've been looking at getting a lancer RA, but went to look at a 3 today...it was nice, but I haven't driven it yet. I was wondering how you guys feel tehy compare...most stuff I've seen basically relates to them being very close, and that it's pretty much just a preference thing... If I...
