I have considered doing that but i dont think its possible to get a mazdaspeed 3 used without it being ragged out by its first owner, or for around $14,000. if i could find a good one for 14,000......i would sell my 3 in a heartbeat for one but i can only get around 14,000 for mine, atleast thats what kbb is saying

The Mazdaspeed line has never moved very quickly. Depending on the condition of your 3, I think they would rather take a small hit on the MS3, and then sell your 3 to someone else used for a couple grand profit.
That way they make money on 2 car sales. An MS3 to you, and your car to someone else.
Most dealers would rather do that than have a slow selling Mazdaspeed car on the lot.

im not sure about that one but i think that they would put one. and if they did then it woulent be anything really good. just like everything else the manufacturer sells you, its always just barely sufficient enough to do what you need it to do.

actually, the last time i drove past mazda of burlington, there was (IIRC), 2 black speeds, and 1 white one, however, there was a sign on the white one saying it had already been sold.

wow ive never seen a white one. although i have a red one that lives right behind me and a black one that lives right here in the neighborhood. the black one is by some kid of course and the red one is owned by some older guy that knows what he has and is modest about it i guess.

well its not surprising seeing as to how mazda was hoping that it would compete with the evo and wrx. but that was only in theory with the awd and turbo, and when it came to real life it didnt quiet make it.
so im pretty sure they're just going to remake it and then bring it back out better than before.

But I don't think it was supposed to? The speed6 was in a class of it's own. It's a larger sedan, whereas the evo and wrx are based on economy sedans.
