right where do i begin, i will admit when i first got the car i was a tad disapointed witht he 1.6 motor i even looked at getting another car. however i didnt in the end because slowly as it started to loosen up the 1.6 motor unleashed its pure revyness! its amazing u get all the power between about 4-6k and the car loves nothing better than being grabed by the scruff of its neck and thrashed!, and then i started to realise how good all the technology is inside it and the bose wow! ten speakers of perfection even at vol 62 "max" its clear as any thing! and now that i finally have the lowering springs on it, it just gets better and better, however now u can feel that the chassis can handle more power

!
but all in all great car!
at the end of 2010 i will be looking to change it for eaither another mazda 3 witha diffrent spec of the all new up and comming mazda 2

! i would highly recomment this car!
