Hi everyone,
My name's Jack and I just became the proud owner of a 2011 Mazda2 Sport 4AT. We have owned the car since October of 2012, but the car was my fathers until we decided to trade cars. He got my 2011 Kia Forte and I got his 2, which we nicknamed "Tommy" because its True Red paint makes it look like a giant car-tomato.
Last October, it was bought with 35,000 miles, after it started its life with a rental company. It was a bit beat up, with broken floormat clips, no cargo shelf (one of the pegs it rests on is also broken), lots of scratches and paint chips on the rear bumper, and some odd fabric stains. My Dad didn't do much about it, but I made makeshift floor mat holders with push-pins and got most of the paint scratches out with rubbing compound and touch-up paint.
My plans include lowering springs (anyone have problems with Tanabe springs?), 16" wheels, a Webasto sunroof, and the OE roof rack.
My old car (now my Dad's):
The "2":
