LOL

thats one hell of a nice car barry, can we have more pics please ?

any idea when the MS3 comes out ?

OMG sexy car.. what are the specs on it?

Nice, congrats with the baby on the way.

Now... on the weekend, be the first to swap that powerplant into a mx3 for us all, then we will be really impressed.

I would rather have that mazda6 mspd than the rx8 as well. But I also like the other mazda3 mazdaspeed that is coming at some point.

2.3 MZR I4 turbo AWD 6speed

270 hp @ 5500
280 ft/lbs @ 3000

the Mazdaspeed3 will have the same specs, but just FWD w/ LSD

Personally I would have gotten a used RX8 instead of a new MS6.

Trust me, drive an MS6, then drive an RX-8. You'll change your mind.

Plus rx-8 has no rebates.
And... I got a baby on the way so I need the room

I've already got two kids. The MX3 is more than enough room, so I'm sure the RX8 would suffice. I've track driven the RX8 and MS6 at a Mazda event last year. I preferred the RX8. I like to be low to the ground and close to my controls. The MS6 is as big as my 626, and I can't stand driving it, which is why I gave it to my wife.

Joe, they're already out. Well ar least around here. Saw a nice red one in the local Mazda showroom this past week.



*First post on my new CarPC ....... woot woot* Damn this script is darn small on a 7" TSV display.

I also prefer the "low to the ground feel".
But as far as performance, I'll take the ms-6 anyday. The Rx-8 dissapointed me. The car seems to have that "takes forever to get there", feeling. Not enough "pull" either IMO. I guess after driving the ms6 right before I test drove the rx-8, I was expecting more.

took a few more pics.

Thats nice...but I would have waited and saved some $$ and got the Mazdaspeed 3 instead!

WTH, We don't get the MS3 until closer to the first of the year. I am waiting on them too, but the scratch for a newer than 94 Celica (beat all to hell too) is really killing me.
Nice car though. I love the white. Make sure to get the Really nice car seat to hold the kid in place as you Zoom-Zoom to the grocery store
The interior on the MS6 is so nice and well laid out. Did you look at the CX-7s. They are HOT for a SUV/car thingy.
I saw a MS6 wagon over the weekend at the Petite Le Mans that was PHAT!! I didn't know they made a wagon version, but it was really nice. Kinda like what I'd imagine a Volvo S60 wagon to be like. Was owned by one of the race teams so I'm sure the huge brakes and some other CF goodies were custom... (a-holes have too much access to tuning stuff)

I havent seen the MS3 yet, I have however seen the touring 3. I was planning on getting that, but with no rebates on the 3, it was less than 3K more for the ms6 out the door. I got a $2500 rebate + the S-plan price.

Congrats on the baby barry. My daugher is 4 months today and man dose it change your life. But it changes it in the best way possible. If i may suggest something do as much as possible for your wife when she is pregnant because it will make the pregnancy easier for you her and the baby. And plus she will go through enought 9 months from now. Let us know what it is as soon as possible!!
