so, as some of you have noticed, i am parting out my car. I got in an accident last month and after everything, ICBC wrote off my car. Thankfully i had replacement insurance and got $28000 instead of $18000.
i'm no longer a mazda 3 driver but i DO drive the 2.3L turbo. yup....thats right, i got a CX-7. one of the last new 2007 models. I got AWD and sunroof. its as equipt as a Mazda3 GS or so.

That's dope!! Congrats on the new purchase. Yeah, good thing for replacement insurance. I actually feel more connected to this car than your 3. We share the same power plant now. How do you like it? Time to go mod crazy. FMIC FTW!! mzr |

NICE! but not so nice about the 3.
What colour did you end up getting for the CX?
oh and I've offered to buy the dead pedal and strut bar.

Sorry to hear Derek. Mind sharing what happened with your car? IIRC, you had just picked up your wheels too! That sucks bigtime.

i guess people want to know what happened...
it was a cold january night (hehe), i was coming up to an S turn and took it going too fast, coming out of the S turn, my back tires lost control, fishtailed a bit, and ended up skipping over half a ditch into a driveway and finally ending up in a fence.
