Speed3 vs. All
Personally my plan is to get a speed3 eventually.
|
Hey I do too! I've been hard pressed on a wrx for a while now, but the ms3 value is ridiculous, and you just miss out on awd.

Rick needs to buy a Mazdaspeed forum.
|
Maybe when I get mine? I gotta buy a house first.
|
Better plant the idea seed now though so when the time comes.

Meh, I was not impressed with my other buddy's speed3 when he let me make several autocross runs with it. It feels really tall and unsporty when you drive it. It felt heavy and had significant front plow in the turns both on and off throttle. It had some torque steer when it could get traction. The stock tires were incredibly hard. I think he went down an inch in wheel diameter and put some stickier rubber on it eventually. Some front drivers are tossable and balanced but not that one. Drive one in some tight curves before you buy one. Straight lines and wide boulevards don't count.

my thought is ---- weather dd duty, i drive the miata when its nice. and the ranger doesnt get great gas milage. the 3 and evos get like mid 20's IIRC and my ranger gets 14-18. it would be a highway car anyway, miata for track/autocross
|
So how many years of driving a speed3 at 25 mpg over a Ranger at 15mpg would it take to pay for itself?
