Hello and where the heck are all the phantom purple 3s

[willy77]

Hey all I just bought my first Mazda. Its a 2007 3s 5speed.

Purple wasnt my first choice but i looked at 2 silver S's around the same mileage but a bit older and they just were not as clean. I have to say after a couple of days its grown on me though and i like that it seems to be a semi-rare color. Is it?

The 3 is worlds apart from my last car a 00' trailblazer, its also the first car ive owned with a manual transmission. Which i love. Especially since my commute has zero traffic.

And i know for a fact the car is fun to drive because my dad gets a big smile on his face whenever he shifts through the gears and he has an A4, and a new maxima.

Anyways ill try to clean it up and get some pics for you all tommarow.

welcome... i haven't seen too many purples out there...if i were you id go crazy on that finish and see about a nice deep shine. even though im not a fan of purple in general, a deep wet looking purple on a 3 would look damn good.

yea most of the '07s I've seen are silver, red or black. I have a flint mica phantom blue. depending on how the sun hits it it green or blue. I have only seen 2 with my color on the road over the last 3 years. I dont think it was a popular color here in sw fl. but I love the fact that no one else really has that color.

Rock on with the purple
