US 2007 Mazdaspeed3 and Mazda3

[rbmazda3]

It is going to be hard to choose between the re-freshed 3 as a Five-door Touring versus the new VW Rabbit for me. The pretension ass in me still wants the VW even though I know it will not be as reliable as the 3.

The 3 will outperform the VW.

they need an AWD, too much power in the front wheels IMO, other than that i love the hatchback considering i am a sedan guy

The 3 will outperform the VW.

Depending on what indexes you care about. Seeing the IIS side crash test results of the 3 sedan have concerned me. Also the road noise in the current 3 is beyond my tolerance, I hope the claim the new one is better is true.

I like it, looks really nice and sporty. The hatchback version is the best

Welcome to the real world

I'm worried that if I buy this in Sept, early oct when it comes out, that next summer there will be a sedan version and I would really be pissed.

i dunno, they didnt relased the msp as a p5 version even though they released a second batch. They havent released or that I have heard of planned on releasing the MS6 as a hatch or wagon......i dont know why they do these things (particularly the MS6 as a hatch and msp as a p5) but they seem to like not offering a lot of choices in their "premium" cars.

yeah, that wouldn't make me any happier either !

 

[trees]

Do you think they will still be sitting around a year later?

 

[slug420]

yes

 

[ZoomVT]

its very possible that they release a sedan version next year, especially since the mechanicals are very similar. Probably to compete with the civic si that will offer a sedan si next year.
I just wish is true. i have been thinking about trading my car very soon, if i can get a financing deal similar to the one i have now. I am waiting for the 2007 refreshed version and if they give me a similar deal then i will do it.
Right now acura is giving me 2.9% fixed, so i may look there too although i would rather stay with mazda.

 

[SaaBaaDoo]

I'm going to have to call my local speed dealer and see if they have any clue about this car and where I can sign up...LOL

I wouldn't sell my MSP for it, but the thing is starting to grow on me... Maybe in silver...

yeah...have you seen the sticker price on the Mazdaspeed6!? It's outrageous!! They will be sitting there for a long time. Not many people are going to fork out 32K for a Mazda!!

(shocked) your brother sounds cool.

technically the dealership is in kansas City, MO. but its on the border of grandview/belton/kc.

 

[dread]

I asked the dealer about the speed 3 and they told me that they wouldn't know anything until august. Then they tried to sell the speed 6. That car looks even better in person I hope the 3 looks the same way.
