Question Hello, About the new Mazdaspeed?

I am looking to buy one. It drove good, handled very well and had good power but I couldn't really drive it hard because of the break in period. Can anyone send me to a website or tell me what the 0-60 and quarter times are?

I'm brand new to here and I appreciate your time.

According to Sport Compact Car and Super Street 0-60 is 6.9 secs.

I test drove it also and the salesman wanted me to put "the pedal to the metal". So I did, but not to hard. Its really fast too. I peeled out 'accidently' when driving off the lot. The handling is sweet, crisp, and exact. Next, I'm going to test drive the SRT-4. If I like it more than the MSP, this will probably be parked next to my Protege in a couple months.

BTW, the highway passing in the MSP is a little slower than I thought, but its still a WHOLE LOT faster than my pro. Also the MSP is WAAAY to quiet for my taste. I guess I got use to my exhaust, but the first mod I will do if I get this car will be a custom exhaust. Seriously, if your still you car forget the car is on.
