    MS3 and unsuspecting passengers.

    When I got my MS3 I told my 63 year old mom she needed to take it out for a spin to check it out. We got in and she asked if it had any "get up and go" I told her it was OK.... not too fast. ;) We got out on a country road and she asked me if she could "punch it" and I said sure... She was in...

    Mazda S Plan

    I got it out of Michigan. The salesman said that the order came from Mazda Corporate that he could take S-Plan on the Speeds for the first time ever... so whatever that is worth. The interesting thing is... I never mentioned I had a S-plan number. I know you are supposed to, but it must have...

    Never, Ever, EVER let a girlfriend drive your MS3

    I'm guilty of letting my girlfriend drive mine (manual experience as well) She put it in first, rev'd it to about 2500 and slowly.... very very very ever so slowly let out the clutch to accelerate. I may have yelled at her to loudly, but I could picture in my mind the glazing and burning of my...

    Flamed!!!

    I think it's odd that you want confirmation from a bunch of strangers (for the most part) that you aren't, in fact, a fanboi. AND at the same time are somehow concerned that a few strangers (for the most part) think you may be one. Set your own tone man... why worry about it? If you let some...

    Mazda S Plan

    Sorry guys but incorrect. I just got S-plan pricing on my 2008.5 MS3 3 weeks ago. The S-plan pricing is 23,535 on the GT. That price includes destination and fees. So what you end up with is 23,535 + tax for a plain vanilla GT (no options). The 2008's, I was told, were set at 23,370ish...

    Wax recommendations

    Turtle wax ice has gotten quite the rave reviews lately... very easy to use as I used it myself just 2 days ago. BUT, I happen to think it kinda really sucks. Feels smooth, but has become a pollen magnet since I used it and the shine is, well.... not that shiny. or is that 'the shinning'?

    gas prices

    I agree. First page man... first page. And don't say I didn't warn ya. ;) Besides "economics 101" this helps explain why EVERYTHING is getting more expensive. Inflation is sold to us as a rise in level of prices of goods and services over time. I think a better way to think of it is the...

    Noise while braking? New MS3

    2008.5 with 1800 miles and I have the same issue. It's almost as if I can feel it more than I can hear it... it resonates through the steering wheel and pedals very slightly. It reminds me of the sound of a bad wheel bearing... I had a couple of those on my old MR2.

    gas prices

    It's called the falling value of the US dollar, but we dare not mention that here. When I was looking for cars, my choices came down to a Honda Civic Si (4 door), a Subaru WRX hatch, and what I ended up with a MS3. They all take premium and I drive a crap load of miles for my job. I simply...
