Bye Bye WRX Hello Mazdaspeed3

[ElBartoRex]

Welcome to the dark side. I've notice something with the Speed3s. There seems to be quite the exodus of both Subaru and BMW drivers to the Mazdaspeed3.

I started a thread a while back because it seemed like a lot of WRX guys were trading in for the MS3

Congrats on picking the best looking color on the ms3. TrueRed ftw! (drive)

good choice--I have a defi mounted in the vent, what series?

Congrats on your purchase. Im sure you will be happy.

DEFI BF series- Amber

The gauge is a little too big to fit on teh column. Im gonna find a nice OEM-ish way to mount it. Not sure yet though.

Yup Ive been a junkie for 3 years or so now...Still gonna hang out with them. Im from San Diego.

I really like how the MS3 feels VS when i had the WRX and was always looking for a way to make it different. It is a boring car in stock form. The MS3 really amazes me, so I wont be doing much to it. I'm also turning 25 next month and starting to want a reliable car that looks good and performs without me dropping tons of cash into it.

However!!! I love RPF1's so I may be putting a set of 18's on the MS3

thats cool to get a awjunkie on here! Also good to see more SPEED's here in SD. There's alot of MS3's running around here and very few MS6's. I've been wanting to gather up some peeps and do a little mini meet. Head over to the the MOCC.com forums also... its Mazda Owners Club of CALI.

Where in SD are you located? Im in Otay Ranch/Paradise Hills area...

Congrats man. Coming from a modded Evo, I'm still suprised how happy I am with this car everyday. I won't lie though, I miss the AWD.

Congrats and welcome to the family. It is interesting that there are so many WRX-to-MS3 converts.

Glad you could make it, we are glad to have you I'm sure. And best luck with the limited modification theory. El Barto is wise in these matters and speaks much truth.
