The only thing I added was a little zoom zoom, aside from this - No badges

I have an 06 Regular 3s here (CDN) and no 2.3 badge on my doors.
I see some other Regular 3's with the 2.3 badge. Not sure what the "standard" is.

Edit: Seems random, maybe it actually is a dealer choice?

See Wes's thread: http://www.mazdas247.com/forum/showthread.php?t=123659534

Actually Wes's thread is what prompted me to post this one (drinks) didnt want to hijack his.... gona go see if I can decipher the build number from the VIN and see if its a dealer thing or a "we started doing that to MS3's after a certain date" thing


Oh and jbiird there was no sea in the weed they found in your tailpipe meng....

Im starting to think there is some guy in the Mazda assembly plant saying the following "Damn it... why the hell do I have so many 2 . and 3 characters left in my parts bin...."

My Speed3 came with 2.3 badges on the doors... not sure how they got there. Thinking of either taking them off.. or adding a "T" after them.

See look:

You can kinda see them in this pic. Oh, and mine is a Sport not a Touring..

Well that definetly settles it... its either a dealer whimsical install or Mazda really screwed up the quality control on the factory line..I have sport from the same region in the country and no 2.3 on mine

thanks all for the replies....

I have the 2007 3 Touring (not speedy), and it came with the badges on the doors. A quick email to my dealer and they were gone before I took delivery.

I have an 06' and just like the title of this thread- we no need no stinkin' badges! And in my case no door moldings either!

Picked up my MS3 GT yesterday and no badges. The dealer just got two red MS3 sport models too, also no badges.

And.... They all have stubby antennas.
