Yeah, if you're only worried about someone taking off with your car. But they can still break or shimmy the windows to get stuff you have inside the car.
i heard that the mazdaspeed3 has a sensor that turns the motor off if u dont have the unlock key sensor when u drive a few miles. not sure if its restricted to gt or sport but that is what i heard other than the other security features. can anyone confirm this?
Both sport and GT are supposed to have the sentry key or whatever... meaning you should not be able to start the motor if you don't have the key you got from Mazda.
The GT also has an alarm that will sound if the doors, hood or hatch is opened without using the right key/remote.
I'm sure most of you know this but the sport does come with the driver information system it just needs to be unlocked on the sport model. Sport is definitely the best bang for the buck.
With taxes and tile I got out of the door for a little over $25K. My GT was a little more because I added widow tint and the homelink mirror. Totally worth this price. I like this car as much as my old BMW which was a pretty fun car. The car has more muscle.
