    Pllleeease Mazda, give us a V6 with a manual tranny!!!

    There are still rumours of an AWD 6 flolating around. But it will be automatic as Mazda thinks the reason why the MS6 was a sales flop was due to it being a manual. While there is some merit to that as some people just don't want anything but auto tranny, Mazda just doesn't GET IT still...

    What do you want changed on the 2010.5 MS3

    those r3 wheels are really purdy. I like the info on the display idea too. I didn't like the fact that there was no temperature gauge on the car. Seemed a bit odd to not have something like that.

    A new car is a magnet for danger, post your stories

    brand new 99 Honda Accord V6 coupe at the time. Picked it up supper time. Drove to store to get some stuff, came out, someone side swiped it in the parking lot. Never had the car for 3 hours for god sakes. From passenger door right to end of rear bumper, tons of scratches. Luckily it wasn't deep...

    First new 2010 seen on the street...

    all front grills are functional on all cars. It's not that I think that it's not functional, but I do not believe that the design was completely the result of function. Mazda immediately had press and whatnot complaining about the front end when the car was announced. The explanation that the...

    First new 2010 seen on the street...

    for the record, I love the hood scoop. No issue there. Should help with heat soak too which was a real issue. Car side profile, also like that too. Back on is not even bad ,but the tails need to be darkened. I just want a new grill. Back with the original MSP they changed the front bumper a...

    nice job, but for those of us that don't use front plates, the car will still be too happy for my liking.

    I get what your saying completely. Actually reminded me of a certain type of whale. I was trying to find a picture of one on google to show it.

    First new 2010 seen on the street...

    when I first seen the color on here I thought it was much deeper. Then I seen it in person. It's not horrible, it's just a girl color. Speaking of women, mine was watching me doodle in mspaint with my advanced and highly skilled drawing techniques...she says, not only does the new 3 look like...

    I've been wanting someone with some pshop skillz to start some thing like this. I only have ms paint, and zero skillz, but I think they need to square it up some maybe?

    MS3 and Winter rims

    I thought the ms6 had 13" on the front. Guess I'll have to google... a quick google says Mazdaspeed 6 brakes: Braking is by discs all around, with fronts measuring 12.6 inches and vented, and rears measuring 12.3 inches and solid.

    Stock tires - terrible wear, Mazda/Bridgestone won't do anything about it

    For normal driving the Pzero nero's are ok. They wear better then stock, but they suck in snow. I have them now and after I broke them in they were quieter but loud at first. The bridgestones suck for mileage but you could practically climb walls with the darn things, really sticky. I got...

    Occasional clunk

    wow, this worked for me. Just went out and tried it, seems ok now. Lets see how long it lasts. I thought I was losing my CV joint.

    MS3 and Winter rims

    I've seen a couple of reviews mention that the new MS3 has larger front brakes again. If I remember correctly, didn't the last gen MS3 have the same brakes as the MS6 or am I wrong? I'm bringing this up because as a MS6 owner, I'm telling you guys, there is not a lot of room left when you put...

    CV joint - drivetrain warranty?

    I think I may have the beginnings of a bad cv joint. Slight knocking when turning the wheel. Mostly turning left. No knocking while the car is up to speed. My car is passed the 3 yr warranty. I believe drivetrain is 5 yrs? wonder if this is covered under warranty? I only have the car for...

    What do you want changed on the 2010.5 MS3

    its certainly not about hating, it's about disappointment for me. Look at my sig, I've owned nothing but Mazdaspeeds for the better part of a decade. I'd have no issue getting another if there was something I liked. But for me to spend 34k on a car I have issues with, I just can't see it...

    What do you want changed on the 2010.5 MS3

    after driving the car, the steering wheel look and buttons were the least of my concerns. The red nonsense inside needs to go asap though. One other issue I had, the shifter is physically too tall. But that is just preference, as I like shorter shifters like the ms6 has.
