This is coming from a HUGE LP fan, so bear with me. They have always been my #1 group for the past 5+ years, maybe more. I'm terribly dissappointed with the album. I liked the fact that they stuck with THEIR own kind of music, and didn't need to swear to make their music good. Now, all their...

Sorry, but that stuff isn't true. Yes, everyone has a maturity level. And yes, you might be a safe driver. However, kids ARE immature at times - it's just a fact of life. To say you aren't ever is a lie. Why do you need a 260 HP car if you never break the law and speed? I just can't imagine a...

No offense, but poor choice by your parents in letting you get a 260 HP car. No kid our age (I'm 18) can really handle that kind of car and not be a show-off to friends/girls at school. That being said, my brother just bought one and he's 27. I looked at one and decided it was too much for me...

Thanks for the answers. I just asked because it's .3 liters bigger without much of a power gain, and when I drove it, I felt practically no difference, and just heard a throatier tone when in WOT. Mazdaspeed is out of the question ;) Dumb car-dealers don't know how to sell a car to an 18 year...

I went shopping for a mazda3 with the parents again yesterday. It looks like to get the car I want will be 15k, or 17k if I want to upgrade to the 2.3l. Those numbers are a bit rough, but it's looking like about 2k extra in the end to get the S edition. My question is.. is it worth that much...

Jones soda really does suck. Bawls on the other hand, (cool)

... You must have super low standards if you're looking for girls who are gonna **** you for driving a mazda3 (screwy)

Get black! Black car, black rims, black tint all becomes sex on wheels when combined together.

Personally, if you have the means of paying for it, and you're somewhat of a car enthusiast, GO FOR IT. I'm 100% convinced the MS3 is the best car you can buy if you want performance for a bargain. I won't even let myself touch one when I test the regular threes because I know it will spoil me...

Currently I own a 2006 Civic (LX, boo). The 06+ models are the newly redesigned civics. Recently I test drove a 2.3l Sedan and hatch. Let me tell you.. the civic comes NOWHERE NEAR the mazda3. The three even has a nicer interior than the civic's highest model (the SI). The three was so solid...

I was just saying how I'd LIKE 200 whp. And the SI DOES make close to that.. dynoing at 180-185 whp stock. That's pretty ******* impressive from an N/A 2 liter engine... no? I/E/H/ and they dyno at around 200/150 whp/wtq respectively. The interior does grow on you.. the mazda has it beat, but...

^^ good ideas, sadly I'm only 18 years old though. A highly-powered turbo-charged car just isn't gonna fly with the parents. That and I'm not a fan of the srt-4, I don't think a neon was ever meant to be turbo'd. They do run quite well.. but I still think it should of been a new platform to...

Completely different car.. but my friend and I tried this once in his mitsu galant. At first the car idled like absolute crap, and depressing the clutch while driving caused it to stall. After a few days it stopped starting all together until he plugged 'er back in.

Thanks for the replies guys. I think I'm gonna go with the SI, and then the mazda3 if the SI doesn't work out. Shame it can't make more power =( I had hopes since it was a 2.3l engine with DOHC. Guess not. And ford only owns 33%? I was hoping it was more like 2/3s, as that is what I'd heard =(

I agree supporting American cars is stupid if they aren't competing with foreign cars. It's pressures from my family that are kind of veering me away from the foreign cars. The speed3 will, sadly, never join that list. 260 hp turbocharged + 18 year old = horrific, brutal, nasty, disgusting...
