K folks...

Let's not stray off the subject I started. and yes being 36 years old and living in New England, I think I know better NOT to drive with summer tires i nthe snow.

I have the dealer badging on the car since they are our club's sponsors.

 

[major error]

Yeah I told them up front...no stickers and no front plate bracket. Although my state requires it and they insisted, I said "hell no"!

Scott

Well hello there, fellow law-breaker!
The front end looks so much cleaner w/o a bracket to clutter it up...

...and yeah, the dealer can take their badges and stick 'em where the sun don't shine!

Hey BSTD3 <<THREADJACK>>

how did you like Werner Mazda? I just bought my new 07 mz3 from them 2 weeks ago. I am not a fan of the hatch; which is why i didnt go with the ms3; but i still took one for a spin. It might have been yours... as it was the red one they had inside....

Hey Zoom:

Doubt it was mine as it was tucked away in the back lot. Only Speed3 with Nav and homelink. Picked the car up Sat with 13 miles on the ticker.

Werner is my Miata Clubs sponsor so I had little to no problems with my purchase. Who did you deal with for your purchase?

 

[elderlycoffee]

the only mazda dealers in my area are all cheapskates, cheaters, scammers and con artists...

Literally I'd have to drive over 200 miles to get to one with a healthy reputation.

 

[ZoomVT]

elderlycoffee, the same goes around here; all the mazda dealers in my area are a bunch of con artists; which is why i drove 200 miles to Werner Mazda.

BSTD3, i dealt with Tamara. She was very helpful. I think i did drive yours as it had the navi installed.
Dont worry; i was very careful. (lol)
They only had 1 red and 1 silver when i was there.

ZoomVT:

Tamara did my paperwork also. What day did you go in to drive the MS3? Mine didn't come in until about a week ago?

 

[ZoomVT]

i was there on 3/24. i bought it that same day.

Bringing this thread back from the dead. In the area were the jack goes there is also a plastic Oil Cap, I guess you can throw that on there if you ever go to the dealer for an oil change.

Do not listen to this.

There are plenty of good reasons to not drive in the snow with summer tires, but ice "shredding" your tires is not one of them.

ummmmm Yeh it does, soft summer tires like our stock tires basically turn into plastic, then shread basically like plasitc, ever looked at a pair after theyve seen ice? looks like they were doin burnouts all day long...

 

[voiceKoil]

Mine has the front plate attached

Mine too looks nice lol NOT, its the law though and IM trying to avoid them

sorry off topic, good point out on the the foam, I noticed that when I took it out of my car and put it in the garage, I didnt know what that was at the time, I later found out... What kind of club is it? A regular car club or do you get parts discounts and fancy functions? Some clubs do that..

I am the President of the local Miata club www.mstersmiata.org and our local dealer gives us discounts on parts, test drives on new vehicles, door prizes for events, things like that.
