ah, i'm not usually a fan of leasing ('cept for apartments cuz a mortgage is out of the question). i usually buy to own. though i might reconsider my strategy; if i started to lease, i would get a new vehicle each time, and i get to try a variety of different vehicles. all this and no worries about expiring warranty. has anybody compared it with the legacy gt? some consumers are more attracted to the legacy gt than the mzspeed6 and me personally i've never driven either.

from what I hear the original design of the MS6 was slightly quicker than the Legacy GT but now with revised gearing and shift linkage I'm sure it's a touch quicker. I'm not buying it as a handler though...it's too much of a pig but its GORGEOUS in person. The interior trim is first class. The wheels are yucko though. I'm trying to swing the dealership into trading the 18's from the MS6 for the split 5spokes from the 06 mx5 special edition 17" rims....they are super lightweight and the same bolt pattern and everything. Plus they are 205's as opposed to 215's so that'll help acceleration and gas milaeg some.

damn, I'm too ****.

i kinda like the mzspeed6 wheels, they are unique and fit nicely with the body design. it wouldnt work too well with many other types of cars. there is an air of elegance while maintaining a sporty stance. i'd take those over the 2006 civic si wheels in a heartbeat. and the interior, as far as i can tell, its similar to the mazdaspeed protege interior; different pedals and shift **** & minor details right? sorry for being nosey and all, but this car has really grabbed my attention...

it's got an entirely new dash console overlay that is a type of CF weave....dark grey metallic in color. the shift **** is unique as is the shorter shifter, pedal covers, aluminum scuff plates, sport gauges (2 big black black circles until you turn the car on), heavily bolstered seats. These seats are some of the nicest I've ever been in. Nice big side bolsters while still being soft. The rear spoiler is a lip-style, very nice. The dual exhaust outlets are larger (more oval) and built into the rear diffuser, the hood has a "power bulge" to clear the intercooler...the hood is GORGEOUS in person. pictures don't do it justice.

the GT models have a keyless entry and start feature. It's got a buisness card-sized remote that you keep in your wallet or pocket. When you have it on you (or in a purse) you can unlock the doors just by touching the handle. Also you don't need the key to start the car, just turn the **** on the dash and go. No need for keys in the car.

it's a great package. I wish they'd just cut the weight down 300lbs and given it an extra 25whp.

If you really want a new car, the MS6 is a great choice! A nice car to begin with, and youll still be in the Mazda family!

The only question I have is that, what if somebody has a problem with their WOMP kit but you dont have your car to go out and see what one might be talking about...?

I wouldnt mind one myself, but no money, so you gotta work with what you have! And I like the MP3 anyway, so its not that bad...I'm happy with it, especially the handling, and I'm greatful I even have a car! Can't wait to WOMP her...(that sounds dirty)
