They only hate because they are affraid of the potential

But No hate here, just jealousy

Congrats on the purchase, I just wish i could afford one right now

very nice car. Welcome to the forum. No hate here...thats kinda our motto. If you're a hater you get gone.

Any plans for mods or just keeping it stock?

Definately no hating going on here .. one of the best forums you could belong to on the net. Nice car by the way, I'll trade my P5 for one of those any day!!

haha Yep. I live in las vegas NV, dirt everywhere. I have a good touch-free car wash nearby for good a rinse between real washes and waxes.

It's a really nice car. I test drove one a couple of months ago
I was just wondering.... what do you guys think of the engine? Is it pretty reliable since its turbocharged? I mean is it going to last 5-6-10.. years?

no wya to know other than to wait....however the problems with previous turbo mazda engines has been resolved.

the current duratec 2.0/2.3 is very tough. It's been around for a while and is a poven player. Now couple that with forged internals and a more efficient fuel delivery system to make th engine run cooler/safer/stronger and I think the mazda 2.3 DISI is going to be around for a LONG time.

how is it feel to pass everybody on the highway with a little touch on the gas in this thiny little car when all those mustangs and corvettas are arround and can do not much about it? i still remember ferrari red faces of the two guys driving z28 and corvette when we were racing through the traffic on i-290 in chicago and they couldn't even keep up with me...
