So yeah.... i traded my 2008 VW R32 for a new Mazda 2 Touring Manual. Crazy huh?

I got the same package. I bought mine straight from the dock the day it was listed. I came from a well sorted B13 Sentra SE-R and was looking for something new in the same weight class. Cars are too fat nowadays.
 
Congrats! I have the 'Evil Twin' of yours!

It's not fast, but it's super fun to drive; pretty much the perfect size; and it feels great to go over 300 miles on $30 with gas prices this high!
 
Thanks! The pearl paint is nice huh? I do have some questions. haha How do the H&R Springs feel? How much more horsepower are you getting from the intake and exhaust? 3 things i plan on doing.

The H&R springs feel nice. It stiffened up just a tad, but still goes over bumps smoothly. And it gave it a very nice drop. As for the intake and exhaust, well it didn't give much. Maybe 1-2hp. I haven't actually dyno'd it or anything so I'm not 100% sure on that. It just gives the 2 a nice sound now. I enjoy revving to high RPM's just to hear it! :)

You can buy cars straight from the dock? Nice! Cars are very fat now a days. If you think about the 90's Honda hatchback they were tiny. But so was the safety.

So yours i black? haha It's not fast but it is quick. And the cool things about it is that you can make it fast if you want. I'm noticing the gas savings immediately. Especially coming from my V6 R32. It's great.

Definitely like your description of the H&R springs. What size wheels you have? I'm looking to get the dual center exhaust from AutoExe or HKS. I'm actually happy that the car sounds revving even in stock.
