I had an '07 Mazdaspeed 3 from the first production run and it was a fuckin' beast! True red and everyone one wanted to race me! The car is fast as hell for the money ($32,600.00, tax and p.d.i. included). Anyone talking shit has no fuckin' clue! At the time it was the world's fastest fwd production car out there...that pretty much says it all.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
haha mazdaspeed 3 i saw that symbol the other day for about 1 sec as my m3 took it out for dinner ,fucked it and left it for the sloppy seconds for the sti
lol most likely....I mean who wants a performance vehicle such as the STI with its 300hp AWD when you can get the 2010 MS3!!! 265hp with FWD and a car with a grille thats smiling at you....my moneys on the clown car MS3
And although the WRX wears snazzy red-painted calipers that use three times the number of pistons, it was the Mazdaspeed that offered superior brake feel and performance, halting from 60 to 0 mph in 111 feet.
Around our figure-eight course, a telling test of handling and braking, the WRX clocked a time of 27.1 sec at 0.64 g average, again no match for the 3s 26.6-second at 0.69g average. Circumnavigating the skidpad, the Mazda held on for 0.86 g of lateral gripbetter than that of a Lexus IS 350once more outgunning the Subies stickiness of 0.80 g.
Through the slalom, the WRX posted a speed of 63.4 mph, well behind the Mazdas 68.6, a pace that betters that of the BMW 330i, Infiniti G35, and Jaguar XK.
The WRX also trailed the Mazdaspeed in every handling test we conducted, evidence that the Subies softer suspenders, while providing a more supple on-road ride, were too spongy to match the taut dampers and springs on the 3, which still delivered a ride pleasant enough for everyday commuting.
Man, I used to work for Mazda and I remember when this car first came out...Killer. Does'nt need all wheel drive for handling 'cause it handles better than a wrx and evo. It will blow you back in your seat. The new one has more power, but only if they made a sedan.
LOL, it DOES NOT handle better than the Subaru OR the Mitsu, funny. It's a shame that someone would believe that. Take it out on the dirt roads if your brave enough. Or does the shine of the paint make you paranoid for that? However, it is quite the badass little Mazda indeed. I would like to take it out in the woods and see what it would do, since it supposedly 'handles' better than a Subaru. You do realize that's a colossal statement right? It simply CAN NOT be backed up. Period.
If you've seen any comparison tests done on normal roads (where most of us drive), there's plenty of proof right here on youtube that it handles better. As for the dirt roads, you can have them.
Well, fortunately enough for me I'm not stupid enough to let my testosterone get the best of me in the middle of pedestrian, civilian laden traffic. I'll choose to keep it to the track. But with comments such as that, you can't expect anything but smart ass remarks. You get back what you put out, if you haven't heard that phrase before.
yo wildmandigging, you are a moron. it is not meant to be a rally car. just because it handles better than they other "rally" based cars doesnt mean that is is designed to go driving in the woods. and as far as the paint making me paranoid? im pretty sure if i spend over $30,000 on an sti or evo, regarless of how "well" it handles in the dirt, the last place you will find me is in the god damn woods messing it all up....
Yo dynodrew44 you are a moron. It's not God's fault. Take your GD and cram it up your ass you idiot. Subaru's were made for the woods, you simply could not handle one out there, so stay out here where it's 'safe' in your little Mazda you get so upset over. Cry me a freakn river while your at it.
wow, that was a great comeback.. is that the best you could think up given that short of time? i dont think you really understood my first comment. i mean yeah subies are designed to be out there with their strong AWD standard on every car and such, im not doubting that, but this is not mazdas attemp to make a rally based car. yeah, i agree with you that it wont handle as well on dirt as well as the subie, but on pavement, where the majority of the people would be driving one.. the MS3 has it
too bad Honda discontinued the Civic SIR hatchback . the new Mazda speed 3 looks sick i`m wondering how well it will do in performance and speed against the Honda Civic SIR
Mazda isn't trying to copy the STi or Evo. And their performance RWD vehicle is strictly excluded to the rotary bloodline. What Mazda has done is made something difinitively Mazda. Cars that have similar power won't have similar class, and vice versa. The Mazdaspeed3 has the market on hot hatches DOMINATED, and has done a lot for Mazda. It would ruin the Mazdaspeed3 if they converted it to RWD or AWD. It is THE FWD hatchback. End of story.
I'm not wild about the new goofy face-but if the upgrades make it a better version than the '09 is-then I'll consider it. Mazda-you need to make this hatch a AWD and give it at least 300hp, and do it for under 30 grand. That will upset a lot of WRX owners, but I do happen to like both the Speed3 and the WRX. A little competition isn't necessarily a bad thing, is it ?
yea i hear rumor bout the AWD as well i also heard rumors that its suppose to be faster then the sti and evo dunno if its true or not though but ill tell you you sumthing if its all true im not going to hesitate to trade in my 08 MS3
the awd claims are false, sorry to say. however the new speed 3 is gonna be designed to compete with the sti's and evo's of the world with a rumored turbocharged volvo 5 cylinder engine. i was gonna get an 09 but i'm waiting for sure
mazda has stated in car and driver and in road and track that the engine will stay the same 2.3l turbocharged inline 4 but horsepower is increased by the vented hood for the top mount and also re tuning of the ecu and the new higher flow dual exhaust. also the car can compete with the sti and evos but is not in the same class as mazda intended from the start and that is why its the best sport compact as tested by car and driver "dirty speed done dirt cheap" also best sport comp. 3 yrs in a row
here we are gonna see all current owners of speed 3 saying that the new one is ugly and not worth it, they are just jealous that a new and better speed 3 is coming!!!!
I wish that were true... Personally I wish they had made all the improvements but kept the design the same. I would be much more jealous if that were the case. The old design is superior.
I don;t like the rear looks like an UFO Civic and the rims are ugly as hell. I'll stick for the moment to my 08 MPS. Front bumber might be resdesinged too. Looks like a fking Peugeut 206
I don't know what's with this UFo design everywhere, they really ask the consumers or they do this only for Japan market, it's all like a panda car, I hate that.
