Skinner Posted June 5, 2005 Report Share Posted June 5, 2005 picked up a new 05 mazda 3 for the wife she loves it so I am happy. here are some pics http://flathat.woodstream.net/ColumbusRacing/Shawn/mazda3/frontleftside.JPG http://flathat.woodstream.net/ColumbusRacing/Shawn/mazda3/rear%20rightside2.JPG http://flathat.woodstream.net/ColumbusRacing/Shawn/mazda3/left%20side.JPG the rest are here http://flathat.woodstream.net/ColumbusRacing/Shawn/mazda3/ its a fun little car 2.3 I4 with 165 HP and 150 torque 17 inch wheels auto w/manual slap stick (wifes first auto, would have gotten stick but her knees bother her) power everything 6 dish indash chager sunfoor int is great ifit and finish it freaking notch. only thing that scares me alittle is it shares the same platform with the focus. so hopefully no issues but at the same time it has decent aftermarket support. only thing i want to do to it is tint the windows and maybe lower it a inch or so and maybe a intake Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cougar1647545494 Posted June 6, 2005 Report Share Posted June 6, 2005 Those are cool little cars.. i like most mazda's out now. Especially if they come out w/ the mazda speed 6. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TurboRust Posted June 6, 2005 Report Share Posted June 6, 2005 ....only thing that scares me alittle is it shares the same platform with the focus.... remember this both the 3 and the focus are built on the new volvo s40 platform and should be worlds ahead in quality compared to the last foci.

Conesmasher Posted June 8, 2005 Report Share Posted June 8, 2005 I really do like the shape of those cars, very on point. The external dimensions are fucking superb.....I'm just scared Mazda is going to fuck it up one day. It reminds me of a 3series/s40 kinda thing. If they make a mazda speed model, I would be highly enthused. I drove a previous mazda 3 mazdaspeed model, and was highly impressed with the driving characteristics. A+ to Mazda, and an A+ to you sir. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zeitgeist57 Posted June 8, 2005 Report Share Posted June 8, 2005 Mazda3 has been very highly regarded (even better than the Corolla XRs). I rented one to drive to NC and even in rental form I felt it was a very good car. Great pick! Mazda definitely got it right with the 3.
