I'm just hoping the Mazda Speed 3 doesnt fall short on this one.

looks horrible...IMO.. I'm NOT a fan of 6-spd trannys in low output engines...it means you've got 2 shifts to get to 60mph instead of 1..

also, the MS3 has been estimated to be 240hp with LSD...I think it'll do just fine against the 06 Si.

that thing looks like crap...

hughes412 February-16th-2005 03:23 PM

I kinda like it. But it does go with the normal look of other cars. Thats the thing I like about the 3, when you see it you know what it is.

240 would be nice, I would might get one. No I think a house is next for me, I have to keep telling myself that so I don't forget!

Roddimus Prime February-16th-2005 03:31 PM

yeah, I'm debating on wether to buy a nice new $45K Infinity GT-r or a few smaller project cars.. I want a Mazda 2 or 5....and possibly a used RX8 base to put that Greddy turbo kit on.

hughes412 February-16th-2005 03:35 PM

I would probably go with the project cars. I mean if you get one expensive car you'll just end up spending more money on a project car anyways. YOU my friend are a mod-a-holic! There is no cure for this! So save your self some money.

Sucks when the cars are coming stock w/ 18s on them...you have to do 20s just to look oversize...and that means $$ when it comes to tires.

Roddimus Prime February-16th-2005 04:25 PM

i can't understand anything over 17" on cars under 350whp...i guess it's a looks thing....

Uh huh. I can barely get my 18s to turn...it's like putting dead bodies on all 4 corners of the vehicle! :cookoo:

Just for show!!!! :bt:

what the hell. i fn hate civics *throws 93' civic keys down* get that picture out of here *brings camera to take pics of civic to put on sight* j/k :D

Bartizek February-16th-2005 07:31 PM

Haha i know i was just screwing with you Mac

I like the body style, even though I prefer the old hatchback i think it's the Eg chassis?
The hood is pretty dumb and the wing is just stupid. But the body itself looks pretty nice, kinda like a stealth RSX. it would look great in black.

just my $.02

hughes412 February-16th-2005 09:14 PM

Well I guess the ricer is comin out then, I really like the wing!
