is it at the conv center like usual? i might be down for it, but redbull flugtag is in tampa that day, and the day after there is some mazdapalooza i hear (though i have yet to see any fliers or info on it).

are they going to sell just the rears? i have a few small chips on the side skirts, but nothing i really care about. they aren't the best looking, but since there are no OEM ones, i was thinking of getting some rear ones...mostly because i absolutely hate being behind someone when it's DONE...

the tires are too small. with the right profile tire and lowered about an inch it would look alot nicer.

nice writeup. :) i'm in agreement for the most part. a subtle drop of no more than an inch is all that's needed on these cars. (wheel choice is much more of a deciding factor in completing a 'look', IMO, esp on these cars) i agree the stock sway bars are pretty stout. i was surprised to...

my car is just like any other stock speed3, so i got bored and hacked up autoXracer's car into a 2 door [for some reason i was thinking about GTIs]. probably could have moved the doorline back just a bit farther but didn't want it to look too huge. if mazda intended there to ever be a 2 door...

good hiding spot but i love the remote pocket to put my phone - perfect fit. ash tray is a good area for the TT too if you don't use it for change or something.

yeah mine works most of the time. my only grip is that strap has to get turned around in its little swivel and it fights me sometimes. the few times mine fell off is i was placing it too close to the gas door and the protruding metal tab was grabbing the upper rim of the cap, that one above...

it's still a pain in the ass and half the time comes off. also the fact that the plastic strap that connects to the hinge has to rotate around and half the time it's all whacked out and just ends up pissing me off. i may try that little velcro mod, or bend up the tab a little.

alot of dealers make more money off warranty work anyways. voiding tons of warranties would not be profitable. now if mazda NA was doing it (above the dealers' heads), that might have made sense, but it's still doubtful. i hope the dealer doesn't mind my speed holes in the hood :D

i wave to MSP guys if i can. it's hard down here since everyone has such dark tint to escape mr. crispy's killer rays hehe. there are quite a bit of speeds in FL and i see a bit of MSPs as well. i mostly see them on the interstate going the other way, so waving and them seeing me or me them...

you should get the official swampass billet mouth blockoff plate. the kit includes: -(1) billet aluminum polished mouth blockoff plate -(1) your choice of black, red, or blue triple nylon weave securing strap (duct tape) with official swampass logo -(1) instructions on how to distract said...

i also found out that the older SS models aren't always supercharged i think. i wanna say there was an SS model that was appearance stuff but no s/c. i'll have to check. the new turbo ones don't seem bad since it's a nice coupe body. they still have really big plasticky headlights and interior...

i'm waiting for v2 when you can control the butterflies to open and make it sound like vtaK y0! plus i want the built-in suspension adjustment system. full damping and dynamic shock partitions to create a "virtual" external reservoir. take that, ohlins!

i dont like ms6 headlights, they are too bugeyed, what is there, 4 projector/round objects in them...
