Not Officially A Mazda3 S GT 5AT Owner...YET

[Future_MZ3Owner]

As you read in the title...I plan on purchasing my Mazda3 S GT 5AT by the end of April...reason why I have to wait so freaking long is cause I need my driver's license first (yah, I know is really sad and pathetic...but real life got in the way of my "OWNING A CAR" dream

After a few weeks of doing some heavy research online for the best car for me...my first choice was the Volvo S40 T5 but heard from others that it was very expensive to own and maintain...

So back to the drawing board to find a car that would best suit me and my needs...along came the beautiful and awesome Mazda3 (which had so much more to offer than the Volvo S40 T5)...I checked out the colors, features and options...whatnot...decided the S Grand Touring 5 Speed Automatic was the one I wanted and I loved the Copper Red Mica color...

Only thing I didn't like about it was the seat height features..it wasn't power but manual...maybe that is the lazy ass in me talkin here but I kinda wished it was power. But other than that...am in luv with the Mazda3 S GT 5AT and that is the one I got my heart set on.

I am so excited...it is such a damn shame I gotta wait one whole month (or less) to get it...my goal is to get it before the end of April if all goes plan (and hope to god they do).

I hope that is not a bad way to make an intro as a newbie on here...am just excited to meet other Mazda 3 owners and look forward to meetin you all as well as learn more bout the Mazda 3 line!

And I had to wait until I was 34 to get my own first new car...

Nice choice of cars and colors...I would have pick the GT, but I have a strong aversion to leather seats...and no it isn't because I don't like leather seats...save the leather for my jacket and gloves...and I'll have the steak...

welcome! official or not, your welcomed here =).
I sat in my friend's civic yesterday (06 EX model), for 25,000 cnd (she told me she got employee pricing). Its pretty nice and as roomy as the mazda 3. Its louder but not as quick. The suspension seems stiffer than the mazda 3 or at least my mazda 3.
I'm not bashing the 3 or anything. I suggest that you test drive all the cars in your price range and find the one you like.

no powered seat height? come on! That's something a 16 y/o can't live without.
