I got pics of the new Mazdaspeed 3 from the NY Auto Show... I'm currently organizing them and putting them through Lightroom.

(It's FUGLY!)
 
The mazdaspeed3 actually looks a little different than the normal 3 hatchback... and a lot of people tend to agree that the mazdaspeed3's front fascia looks better than the regular 3 hatchback. Overall, I think Mazda went the wrong way with the design this year, and I hope that they will re-vamp it for the next year.

Yeah, I went to the Auto Show yesterday too. The new MS3 is horrifying.
 
Well Im back in town and would love to meet some of the "old" people and new of course. Just checked out the calender too trying to figure out what would be worth while! Nice to be back in the great white north! I think...

Yeah I am glad that I didn't wait for it. It having a not so nice front end and that it uses the same motor, I don't feel like I got jipped.

It even has softer spring rates in it, probably because most of the reviews of the current one say it has a bit of a harsh ride compared to others.



But saying that I thought the front end of the regular 3 that I saw at Lime Rock was better looking in person than the pictures.
 
i guess it can grow on you....i thought it was real funny looking at first, but i saw one on the road the other day and i agree, it's distinctive for sure!!

Yup, I was there too. Zach, be really glad you didn't wait to get this newer look. Unfortunately, this style will be around for a few years before they revamp it again. Subaru also decided to change the looks of the Legacy. I can't say I like that change either. They extended the front headlights and it looks more like an Infiniti. My highlight of the show.. Bumblebee. I'm in love with that Camaro.
 
Mmmmm...I really dig the new Camaro. I'd buy one if I had the extra cash for sure. Subaru is always changing their style, some for good, and well....we know the rest. I'm sad to say that if I had to choose between a STi or MS3, it would be the later.

Just wondering ... why's that?
I also saw the new 3 on a lot and I really question how many people had to authorize that body style...? At no point was some designer at mazda saying .. "Ya seriously this is fugly."
 
One must see thru all the bull and have thick skin at times on these forums.

yes being this is my first forum I've been apart of I've been fortunate ... i joined some others and I really haven't stuck around on them in MONTHS.

The transformers were cool but I don't like the camaro.

I didn't have a clear cut favorite there this year.. The whole show was a little more downplayed than years past. Nothing really wowed me.

I have stopped going to the auto show the last few years because of that reason. There is nothing out there real amazing to see, most of it I can catch on the web or on the street. Plus the super cars you really cannot sit in so yeah.
 
yeah.. I took somewhere around 200 photos and wound up trashing 90 of them due to being blurry from being bumped or people walking in front of my camera.
 
Gonna be 24 degrees tomorrow morning here in Ithaca. With the wind chill it'll feel like 15. This is April right?

Went to the farmer's market today. Shoulda left my winter floor mats in the car because the summer ones now have mud all over them.
