      Suposedly they redid the engine management for the 2nd gen and the power band is much more linear with better top end, i havent driven the new gen so i cant say for sure. I cant afford a 40 grand car either so test driving it would just make it worse lol

      Granted i would kill to be able to have a 2010 Mazdaspeed 3, but it might be overkill for my girl
      a guy that just wrecked his civc bought a grey one, a 2010, it looks kind of weird, it has power but its big lol, 1/4 mile times are sucky though

      Speed 3 is out of the question, way too expensive.

      The 1st place we went for the Mazda 3, my girl and I havent got an answer yet and its been over 2 weeks, the guy is a retard. You can clearly see hes not interested in doing the work to sell the car, kinda wonder how he is still in business today.

      So we went straight to our local Mazda dealer and applied for credit today, we spotted a nice 2008 Mazda 6 Sport sedan. I like those models so were trying to get it.

      I dont find it that big, im 6'3" and sitting inside the 6 i feel right at home, its perfect for a guy my size and very comfy compared to the aveo where my knees are almost hitting the steering wheel.

      I couldnt imagine taking a long trip in the aveo i would remain crippeled in 1/2 afterwards. Only going to the big city an hour away, i have to get out of the car cause my back and knees are killing me.

      Its still not official so i can still change my mind, time will tell...
