Just Got a 3

I just got a 2018 GT auto in deep crystal blue with white interior.




I've been driving an RX-8 for ten years and it was finally time to let her go, but I'll always miss the 8 and I'm so glad that I got to spend a decade in one.

But honestly, after driving a MT sports car for so long I'm ready for a nice comfy ride to work, and I'm loving having an auto in traffic. I didn't expect the 3 to be quite as quick as it is, it's not like the 8 but it scoots and feels quicker than the numbers say. I love how the sport mode works, it shifts pretty much how I'd shift a manual but no more tap dancing on the pedals I also love the steering and handling, which is why I keep coming back to Mazda.

I've been around these Mazda online clubs for a while, I was on RX8club.com and RX7club.com way back when. I also used to own a Protege, the ancestor of this car, but it was like a horse-drawn buggy compared to my new 3

Here's a farewell pic of the old girl, next to the new girl:
