A good realtor will save you thousands and can ensure you get good inspections and such. A good realtor will listen to what you want and find you te perfect house. They also know the areas they work and will know the schools, crime rates, and traffic patterns as well as Movements in value.

1) get a good realtor 2) buy what you can afford NOT what you get approved for- there is a HUGe difference!

Not final but 17-17500

May trade it in this weekend so, if you are interested, speak now or pay 2000-4000 more from the dealer!

Morning bump

I have lots of pics on my iphone of the interior and exterior but photobucket is being stupid. PM me your cell number if you would like some pics or your email address.

Good interior photos are tough to take but I will try at lunch. Interior and exterior are pretty close to perfect. Only "blemish" is a 1 inch crack in the bottom of the front spoiler where the previous owner must have hit something while parking. It is likely most would never see it. I intended to get it fixed and have the "smile" painted body color... That makes a huge difference. Anyways if you google "2010 mazdaspeed 3 interior pics" you will get an idea of what it looks like. Interior is red/ black cloth / leather combo. Lighting is red/blue with indirect blue LED lighting for door handles and shifter area. If you like the looks this one won't disappoint. Some don't like the red/black splash pattern on the seats but they are comfy and firmly hold you in place. The 280 plus pound foot of torque is fun too!

Will likely trade it in this weekend if no interest this week!

I have never driven a normal 3 but I haven't has any issues with the console.

Just Tim and you Clay I promise ;-) I should have you drive this thing Clay and post a review. It will sell for sure then!

El Karacho knows market value on these ;-). In all honesty I got a great deal on it when I bought it a year ago because it needed tires badly. Priced to move fast as I have already found a replacement.

Up for sale is my 2010 Mazdaspeed 3 with 38k miles. It is fully loaded with the tech package (Nav, Bluetooth, push button start, proximity key) and is Velocity Red Mica in color. A couple of minor mods: tint, CorkSport short ram intake and turbo inlet pipe, and a 10" sub and amp added to the stock Bose system. The tires have less than 7k miles on them. Those who know me can tell you I take great care of my cars so, if you are in the market for a quick (260 plus hp) and versatile car you will not be disappointed in this example.

It also comes with a set of Weathertech mats that I got within a week of owning the car. I have a couple of deals in the works and they are giving me decent trade in values but I know I an get more out of it with a direct sale. I am asking 18,500 obo - pm me with any questions!

All: Posting this for a friend...if you are looking for somewhere to hang out on Sunday afternoon (3-530) and would like to benefit a good cause, check it out: http://www.discovercc.org/index.cfm?i=14380&mid=1000&id=389065

Yep, in.

Why are you limited to the GXP on the G8? You can get a G8 GT for the money you have budgeted. They are only available in an auto but I believe that is the case for the E55 too. The difference in power from a GXP to a GT can easily be made up with minor mods you would want to make anyway.

I may bring the soon to be collectible C70 ;-)

Sent once from my phone and did not go through, so I resent. By then you all responded. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Love my wife's C70 - oh well.

Seconded, Lexus GX470. Appears to be 1st gen (2002-2009)

Worked like a charm, thanks man.

This sounds like the procedure I went through but I had the driver door open. Did not think of that. Will have to try that when I get home. Thanks Scott.

The "periodic maintenance" light is on in my wife's Volvo C70 as it was due for an oil change. I took care of the oil but cannot find the right instructions to reset the light on line. I found instructions up to a 2007 or 08 but, to this point, they don't work for our 09. Is a reset tool needed?

I still cannot figure out how my car weighs over 3200 pounds. I thought only GM threw in senseless weight. Oh well, it does not feel like it weighs more than 3000.

Since when did C and D results predict market success or failure? Read the review, it basically said they are all great cars separated by dings here and there. Joe Public is not going to decide not to buy the Chevy because C and D rated it lower than the others. For the record I would not buy one (or any of the other 5). I would however drive a GM truck, corvette, or Cadillac CTS (preferably a v)... That's about it. There is nothing in Toyotas or Hondas line up that even remotely interests me. I still don't think any of the companies should have been bailed out.

I regularly pull a 29 foot, 6000 pound trailer with my 5.3 l suburban. It is no sweat.
