    So whats the next Speed edition from Mazda?

    There's a difference between an RX-8 Mazdaspeed production vehicle vs. an RX-8 with Mazdaspeed upgrades. Currently the production vehicle is only available in Japan but Mazda announced at the 2007 Tokyo Auto Show that they were planning to release it globally. No news since then unfortunately...

    2008 Mazda6

    Came across spyshots of the '08 M6. http://news.windingroad.com/body-stylesmarket-segment/sedans/spotted-near-production-mazda6-sedan/ What's more interesting is the speculation that the MS6 will continue to be available. Thought Mazdaspeeds run in 2 year cycles with the next batch based on...

    Dealer slam (houston)

    Are you saying they itemized standard parts (ie. leather seats) with a specific dollar amount next to it on the bill of sale?

    Buy now, or wait?

    I know of one instance where an '07 model is selling lower than the MSRP from several months ago... so it seems you could get a better deal buying an end of year '07 instead of waiting for an '08. On the other hand, don't expect clearance sale prices as the model is still limited and a dealer...

    08 ms3's coming aug 1st.

    There's a red MS3 GT that's been sitting on a dealer lot for about a month now here. It includes the MS CAI installed for $23,900. Looks like things are moving slow pre-'08 model release.

    Wow thats dark. Looks sweet on the silver though. Looks like you have your windshield tinted, too.

    BOV and warranty

    ... and possibly your cat. You'll get no real hassle with the cai installed. Just pull your bov out before taking your car to get serviced... issue resolved.

    Turbo Back Exhaust Packages - $950

    Sorry guys... I might actually take my name off the list for now. I know Cobb Tuning has been talking about their turbo-back package for a long time now... but there seems to be more chatter about it releasing shortly. I think I'm going to wait to see and compare the performance + sound for...

    Turbo Back Exhaust Packages - $950

    I don't think HP gains are additive with multiple parts. In fact, we probably won't see anything significantly above 300 without replacing the stock turbocharger. There's only so much induction it can handle.

    Shifting

    Was wondering the same thing the other day on the best shifting technique for the MS3. Was messing around with a few and was wondering what other people are doing for best acceleration: 1) Shift close to redline 2) Shift at around 5500rpm 3) Short shift to 3rd 4) Redline 1st and shift straight...
