I'm with BigDawg. Mazda CX-7 comes OEM Turbo'd with 18" wheels I believe. Wifey was looking at getting one.

I tried to talk my wife into one of those while we were looking at the CX7 and CX9... she bought the "little toaster that could" though (2008 Scion xB) :lol:

It's hard to compare to a 600hp Mustang, but it is really fun to drive.
I remember you pointing that one out on Kennedy when we met up for lunch a while back. Those have to be the best bang for the buck going right now. What color did you end up with?

Yeah, I've liked them for a while and for once, all of the reviews agree with me :) It really is the best deal going. They call the color Metropolitan Grey Mica - it's very similar to DSG on the Cobras.
This isn't mine, but this is what it looks like:
Just picked up a '08.5 Metropolitan Gray MS3 GT (http://www.mazda3forums.com/index.php?topic=107201.0)

Good choice! Definately one of my all time favorite shades of silver. Looks dead sexy on the MS3

It's actually pretty optioned out with things like rain-sensing wipers, auto-on/off HIDs, nice pleather, 18inch wheels and of course, 263hp turbo 2.3.
They are about $23K and change. Best DD I've ever had.

This thing is very fun to drive though and the "features" are nice.

So if you and I raced, and I won - you would end yourself? Non-issue because I don't street race. I race at the track, but for now, I'm done. I need to have the heads done. When I'm done with the heads, it'll be game on at the track if you want. With my income, it will be about a month before I'm done though. :oops:
Stangonline
04-21-2008, 11:29 PM
I didn't say street race - was just a hypo. Still - I'll meet you at the track when you're ready :) It's a win win for me though because if I lose, then it's just a 4-banger and everyone knew I would lose. If YOU lose, the ribbing will never end! :) Normal street radials.
Whats up with your heads anyway?

I had em sitting in the storage unit on another engine. My hood was leaned up against the wall, and the asshats in the unit next to mine banged the wall with something and knocked the hood over which hit the drivers side head. I didn't know it hit, and just put the heads on the Cobra. I have a few bent valves now because of it.
And I'm too poor to afford the gaskets to do the job, so I couldn't possibly afford street radials or anything special. LOL

04-22-2008, 10:01 AM
That's what I meant - NORMAL, as in stock radial tires :)

oh nice buy, did you get the Grand Touring model? and how fun is it?? i've been lookin at them for a couple years now, i REALLY want one... but i need a job first lol!!

04-22-2008, 04:19 PM
A job helps :) Yes, its a GT. It's fun to drive but as with anything, it needs more power :)

doesnt it come with almost 300 lol... did you buy it brand new??
Stangonline
04-23-2008, 01:37 AM
Its rated at 263 but if my other car was new, it would be rated at almost 700 - so 263 doesn't really excite me, but it is fun as a DD :)

Dude its been dyno proven that just an intake will net 30+hp on those things.
I just tuned a hiboost mazda 3, speedkiller. Turbo 3's can be quick.

Some NAWWWSSS! stickers will ad like 200 hp. Oh yeah, and a wing for another 20 hp. Don't forget the cold air intake for 30 hp, and the spark plug change for another 15 hp. We'll have you upwards of 400 hp by days end! :lmao:

!! hah. I still own 3 Mustangs, so I'm safe :)
Visibly, it's going to remain stock. I also don't care for the loud-ass fart can sound, so it's probably going to stay 100% stock :) Maybe I'll mess with the audio a bit. The nawws stickers are tempting though :)
