New car! :) Zoom Zoom (Speed3)

[zliegen]

Finally picked up my new car yesterday! More (sunny) pictures to come whenever I get a chance. It drives and rides like a dream, I can't wait to get out of work so I can drive it again

edit:
It's a 2011 Mazdaspeed3 Sport, only had 2 miles on it when I took it on the test drive and I got to unwrap the plastic from the wheels and rest of the car. I'll be the first one to wash it!z

Before you know it you will be polishing the paint to perfection :xyxthumbs:

Thanks, and oh my god yes is it ever a blast to drive.. It spins the tires in 3rd gear when turbo boost kicks in.I'm looking forward to NOT polishing it actually haha The paint is in flawless condition right now and I hope to keep it that way as long as possible.

Thanks! I originally was going to go with the Celestial Blue Mica, but I'm kind of relieved I went with silver as I would definitely be obsessing over the paint condition and cleanliness with the blue just like you said.

at first glance it reminds me of Herbie the love bug but then I looked at the turbo intake on the hood and thought, must be Herbie's bad ass cousin!

Thanks It's been great so far I've put about 200 miles on it in 24 hours.

This car is such a good bang for your buck, nothing else on the market beats it right now for the money IMO. The V6 Mustang is close in value but the quality on the speed3 inside and out seems to be quite a bit ahead of the mustang.

I'll change my avatar eventually once I take a picture of the car that I'm happy with

Haha yeah, I get so excited when I open the garage and see it smiling at me. I'm going to start backing it into my spot at work just so I can see the face as I approach it haha

Awesome car. I love mazdaspeeds, especially the old proteges!

Nice ride - I dig the MS3. What product are you going to use to protect that flawless paint with?

Ultima Paint Guard Plus

I can't wait to wash it this weekend and put on a couple coats of UPGP.

Magnificent ride! Had the short seat bottom fit my long legs I would be driving one today. That alone killed the sale. Awesome in all other areas.

Haha, coming from a miata, this is already VERY "go fast" from the factory. It has about 140HP more to the wheels than my miata did and at least as much more torque. I'm planning on keeping it stock, with my only mod being maybe a short throw shifter. Don't wanna void my warranty.
