    2014 CX-5 Clicking noise during low speed turns.

    I had the same thing on my 2012 CTS-V coupe. Took it back to the dealer and apparently it's a known issue- had something to do with lug tension. In other words all they did to fix it was tighten all 5 of the lugs. No more clicking.

    Was offered $15k for the ms3 what do you think?

    PS You are going to love the XI. I picked up a brand new fully-loaded 2011 (w/ M-sport Package) about 4 months ago, and just got a 2012 Mazdaspeed3 today!

    Ok now I'm OFFICIALLY back! Pulled the trigger today....

    Pulled the trigger today on a 2012 Liquid Silver MS3 (non tech). I can definitely feel the changes they made to the chassis and steering. The steering tracks similar to my old S2k! It handles wonderfully! Looking forward to breaking it in and beginning the modding. (drinks)

    10 Year Mazdas247 Member Preparing to Return (re: 2012 MS3- Need Insight)

    Spent some time at a local dealer today they were offering a 2012 Liquid Silver (non-tech) for $22,600. Not bad- however I don't like what I hear about Cobbs tune not working on the new 2012's, is this correct??? Cobb's website says 2010-2012 MS3.

    Hey guys, I've been a member here- wow, a decade now. This is, by far, the longest membership to any online forum I've ever had and even though I tend to move around in cars a lot in the past I've always kept this community on the map checking back frequently to get my fill of Mazda News. It...

    CX7 Switchblade Key (mint)

    Anyone need an extra CX-7 switchblade key. We traded my wife's CX-7 in a few years back and just stumbled upon her second key fob (which is mint/never used). I know you can have the key portion replaced and re-programed. If anyone is interested please contact me with an offer. Thanks.

    Can I get some help from my Mazda brethren?!

    For some reason someone nominated us under Photography. I believe we got that removed so there is only one category you can vote for us on...VIDEOGRAPHY. Today we got bumped to 2nd place as a local competitor (whom wins this contest every year) rallied for votes on a video game forum...

    Can I get some help from my Mazda brethren?!

    As some of you may know my wife and I do video production for a living. Mostly weddings/events. Here's our webpage if you want to see our work: http://www.gmelliottvideo.com We were nominated in Philly by PHL17 in a contest for the best vendors around the city. Could you guys take a minute to...

    I iz newbie

    A fast 3, very nice. You are putting more power down than my 09 Vette with bolt-ons. I would love to line up with you at the track.

    So long to my fellow Mazdaspeeders.

    At least you didn't trade up to a slower car. I believe the V6 Camrys are able to pull low 14's stock- just like the MS3. Put a blower on it and call it a day- the MS3 wouldn't have a chance.

    How fast 'should' my car be now?

    Slicks, short shifting, and power-shifting are the key to good times with the MS3.

    How does the Mazda3 compare to the Mazdaspeed3?

    Bah- too much weight, slows the car down. ;)

    S2000 owner, just picked up 2008 MS3 for DD!

    Nice pickup! I actually owned an S2k at the same time I had my MS3. Such a great mix of vehicles to own simultaneously. Both extremely fun, and both as DIFFERENT as could be in the way they drive and the way they deliver power. I LOVED the torque from the MS3, and absolutely adored the...

    How does the Mazda3 compare to the Mazdaspeed3?

    It did ok in winters- I bought a 2nd set of winter wheels/tires. Granted you aren't going to be trudging through deep snow but that isn't something you'll be doing with the MS3 either. I'm actually daily driving my Corvette- I have a set of Pirelli Sottozeros and ZR1 replicas on it now. Oh...

    How does the Mazda3 compare to the Mazdaspeed3?

    Yeah they did TERRIBLE for sales. A total automotive flop for Chrysler. I, personally, attribute it to the original bloated price-tag. The SRT6s were in the mid 40's with the verts toping out around 50k. That's a lot of dough and incidentally puts it in a very competitive class including...
