From an Evo to this

I was surprised on how easily I could get the MS3 to oversteer. All you hear about FWD is understeering into curbs and stuff, but this car you can oversteer into a corner if you let off gas right before the turn.

Technical term: Throttle lift oversteer
 
Dude, congrats. Yeah, after joining the Mazda family (I also owned an Eclipse), the MS3 is in my radar. You live close by so come this summer, hit me up so we can attend meets and shows.
Very cool. I am up for meets!

It's called trailing throttle/lift throttle oversteer. Pretty common, especially if you have a big rear sway bar.

As for the custom plates, I stopped doing that after my cars kept getting vandalized. I think custom plates are kinda antagonistic and sets your car apart in a bad way.



Whereabouts in IL are you? I am in Naperville.

Dude, I've seen this car recently! I've been bouncing between Chicago, Detroit, and Toronto recently so I really can't remember when/where I saw it, but judging by your location I'd say it was Chicago. Probably up on the north side on/near Clybourn Ave... I remember that plate in particular :)

Would that have been you driving, or the new owner?
 
LOL Hey I said I couldn't believe he traded it in for a Speed 3. However can't go wrong with either car.

Probably me...I just got rid of it last week.
