Re: Couple of pics of my Speed3

i believe the turbo in the mazdaspeed 3 is a all mazda design. I think the v6 in the mazda 6 and the block from the i4 in the regular mazda 3's are from ford.

I wish they made the mazdaspeed 3 in a sedan form too. I think it would look way better like the mazdaspeed protege.

Re: Couple of pics of my Speed3

I have seriously loved these cars since they came out. Only thing that sucks is the weight, but they do have a lot of power. I've contemplated putting a down payment on one, but I do like having no car payment. Maybe in a couple of years...

what kinda gas mileage do you get? nice car by the way too.

Re: Couple of pics of my Speed3

do those have a front mount or top mount? judging by the lifted middle of the hood, i would guess top, but not sure.

Honestly weight isn't an issue because of the powerplant in the MS3. Weight is 3185lb.
Sentra SE-R Spec V-3086lb.
VW GTI-3155lb.
Subaru WRX TR-3200lb.

I average about 23mpg.

even if it is ford design, if you look back at the aluminum v6 in the mx-6 and probe gt, that was a damn nice engine. ford doesn't suck at everything, it's just putting the damn things together where it usually goes wrong.
