Newest member of my mazda family. 2010 VR Mazdaspeed 3

[boostedmsp]

I've wanted a mazdaspeed 3 since they came out and I came across a pretty good deal on a 2nd gen from Ohio. I haven't picked it up yet but I should be driving it home on sunday. I know I didn't really like the 2nd gen looks at first but it kinda grew on me and I was really wanting a new car that still had a warranty. LMK what you think!

Wifes ride
2007 Mazda 3i

My other car still for sale
2003.5 Mazdaspeed Protege

New ride
2010 Mazdaspeed 3
25,000 miles

I plan on doing the small things but really want to keep the warranty. At first I will probably only do an accessport and a HPFP internal swap.

Thanks, I hate to say but I already have a crazy mod bug but I am trying to squash it.

Got some updated pics. Drove like a dream back from columbus. I know its not too accurate but averaged 28.9mpg on the trip back. First mod I think I will do is remove the front lic. plate bracket.

Guy I bought it from only put 20k miles on it in 3 years and kept it 100% stock. Also came with a hard folder full of every receipt/maintenance log since he purchased the car in late 09.

Do you mind me asking how much you paid? I will hopefully be making the same move in the near future. I really like these cars in red btw.

I would like to think I got an excellent deal considering the maintenance and care thanks to the original owner. I bought it for 18k. The only thing close to that low for an unabused car that I could find was an 08 ms3 with 42k miles on it and after deal crap fees it would have been like 17.5k.

Plus, this car doesn't have a SINGLE door ding. It does have 3 small rock chips though.
