[mookiebarras]

wierd that none of the photos of the speed 3 have moonroofs either. i guess ill have to wait until mine comes in and find out. although i still cant get an estimated arrival date.

I know...that's why I was skeptical - I tried to build one and that option just wasn't there. Of course, you can't actually build a Sport with the Bose stereo option either, but if you look at comparison specs, it says it's part of a package....but doesn't say what package or really point to ANYTHING else that is part of a package. A package is a GROUP of options though, and so...maybe their webmonkeys need to be fired?

The Bose is to the GT as it was with the '05 SP23... unique and exclusive.
When I built this GT, the tab at the top of the page said that there were "no packages available." only options... and Damn few of those.

Argue with the Mazda rep I talked to on the phone...on the website's 800 #. I don't know what to tell you.

Okay, now go to the 'features and specs' tab. Near the bottom, you'll see 'In-dash 6-disc CD changer'....and next to it a 'P' that denotes it as part of a package.

WTF?

The A3 comes in turbo 4 (I believe) and six-cylinder versions. I've heard the six-cylinder A3 rocks.

Yeh he has the Turbo 4-cylinder. It's not that quick off the line but really kicks then the RPM's get high and the turbo is screaming. Fun car to drive...definetely a smoother/floatier suspension than what a ridged mazda matchbox car would be.

Edmunds.com said the A3- 4cylinder can do a 0-60 in 6.8 secs.
The specs on the MS3 I have seen say 0-62 in 6.1.


Oh man...for the price difference I'm sure it's gonna eat him up inside. Wish me luck!!

'Sorry nondual. I'm not trying to ruffle your feathers, just posting what my own research dug up.
As I'd said before, I'm on your side and hope they do offer the roof.

Oh, I know.

Like I said, do the specs and you'll see the 6-disc offered as part of a package...but the other parts of the package are not shown.
