No More Wagon for Shaggin'!!!!!

[shaggin'wagon]

Hey whats up everybody, i haven't been around the board lately, but mostly do in part to the fact that the P5 is no more :-(, I do miss it though, but the brand spanking new 3 sedan with leather more then makes up for it, I had only had my P5 for 9 months or so, but I am to in love with the 3's, I got the 3 w/ leather, auto (my P5 was a 5 spd) but I drive too much for a manual, sport package, xenon lights and what not its the mica black w/ black leather and of course the 2.3 baby, silky smooth and peppy as hell....... the best part is I went to the Mazda dealership that i went to for my P5 and I got my P5 for $12300 (plus tax and crap) but 9 months, and 15,000 plus mile later they gave me $11,350 for it (and it was manual and base everything) could not be happier, will post pics ASAP!!!!!!

[Brian MP5T]

Too bad about the P5. I'm happy you like the 3. It's got alot of cool gizmos.

 

[dream merchant]

what did u pay for the 3?

 

[shaggin'wagon]

.....

I got the 3 at Tustin Mazda, great guys over there... I got the 3 @ sticker since i was upside down on the 5 (from the refinance) but the sticke was $20,340 w/ auto the sport package, xenon w/ tire pressure gague, and leather, so everything but navi and sunroof and 6 disc, so i am very happy, i do kinda miss the 5, but all i need to do is hop in my 3 and all is right with the world. yeah i've gone back to the dealship with a few questions and they found out that i had bought it from them 9 months ago for $12,300 the sales guys were impressed at the fact that i worked the deal that i did, and on top of all this my insurace went down $400/yr with the new car!!!!! thats it for now! late,

.... I got the 3 w/ leather, auto (my P5 was a 5 spd) but I drive too much for a manual...

Good choice on the 3, but drive too much for a manual?

I dunno; I've read reviews about the Mazda3 5-speed being about the best gearbox out there right now in it's class - beyond Honda even...

 

[zach34]

I thought he meant it was inconvienient to drive that much with a manual.

 

[shaggin'wagon]

yeah i LOVE manual and i did drive the 5 speed...... AWSOME better then my buddies brand new saab, i would of loved to have gotten it but i drive about 5-600 miles per week (not including the weekends) so the traffic in the morning and night to and from school AND work was killin me, so i figured when i am done with school (2yrs) mazda will have once again built something even more dissireable

Hey where do you go to school? I live in Aliso Viejo and go to school at CSULB. I hear what you are sayin' about the driving and traffic. There is no place in the US that has traffic like OC/LA/SD/SB/Riverside counties. Maybe some cities but they are not the size of half of California. Also, I got my Pro at Irvine Mazda and I was extremely pleased with there service, glad to hear that Tustin is taking good care of you. There is nothing like a crappy dealership (ie: Ray Fladeboe Honda in Irvine). Peace

 

[shaggin'wagon]

SWEET!!!

I go to CSULB too my second semester there 4th year of college (3 @ OCC) I work in Mission Viejo, we should meet up at school or something what days do u have class, i have tuesday thursday all day. i went to irvine mazda, didn't have the two colors i wanted, and if they did it didn't have leather, big selection though, let me know if you wanna meet
