    Feel like I'm kissing my sister . . .

    You made a good move. I think the Honda's feel cheap compared to the MS3.

    Not me. I would have passed had the sedan been released.

    Thinking about buying a MS3

    Former BMW owner here. You will not regret the MS3. I like it because it is fast as hell, handles like my old BMW AND I can haul a bunch of stuff/people if need be. I took it on a 300 mile round trip yesterday and got a respectable 30mpg. The only downside is it is not the most quiet car I...

    Update: Impressions of Speed3 GT after 3,000 miles

    Hey go easy on him. I have had mine 8 months now and only have 5k on my 2007. Mine is mostly a weekend driver since I take mass transit during the week.

    Lets see what everyone drove before getting the MS3

    1991 Saab 900 S. Slowest vehicle I ever owned. 1979 Jeep Wagoneer. Rode better off road than on road. Broke down weekly for a year that it was my DD. Wish I had not sold it after all the work I did to it. 1999 BMW 323is Dinan. Loved that car. Horrible seats and interior though for a...

    3k on the clock and the engine is really opening up

    Wow!! after really breaking in the engine it is really starting to come alive. The MS3 is the best bang for the buck out there period. I have had my MS3 since April and have really liked it but it now I love it now that it has loosened up. Maybe my diving skills are getting a little better (wow)

    Picking up an '06 Mazda 3 GT in an hour

    You will love the 3 Hatch. My wife had one and I liked the light weight feel that it had.

    Any chance there will be a 2009 MSP3?

    I did not like the styling of the MS6 or the bad gas mileage. It also did not feel very sporty in the handling. My MS3 handles more like my old BMW 3 I had which is a compliment.

    Why all the hate for the BOSE in the MS3 GT?

    I agree my wife's old Beetle Monsoon was is the best factory system I have ever heard in a vehicle. I think it was only a $250 upgrade which was a deal.

    Pulling the trigger!

    I went with the GT because that was just about all you could find in my area. I was able to get mine for dealer invoice so I did not worry about the price too much. I love the automatic AC btw.

    Pics of my MS3 in the North GA montains

    Yeah it is beautiful up there. My father in-law lives in the mountains and has views like this from all sides. He is only 45 minutes away so I try to go up as much as I can to drive through the mountains. My little wiener dogs don't care too much for the twisties. After the ride they look...

    Pics of my MS3 in the North GA montains

    I must say I was thrilled with the handling qualities of my MS3. It handles just as well as my old BMW 3 series through the twisties except that the MS3 has more power. I had no trouble blasting by the slow pokes in the passing lane...even up the steep grades.

    No compliments yet but I can tell you after driving this Kia POS all week while on vacation in Arizona all I can say is: "I WANT MY SPEED3 BACK."
