Good morning all. I too am brand new. I've glanced through the forum before but finally joined.
Got my car a little over a year ago, I have no pics yet, but it's an 06 GT sedan. Got a magnaflow catback, k&n col air intake, tinted the back windows, took the led brakes lights off an 07 today and she has Canuck springs as of Friday. Shes a 5 speed ... And to anyone that wants to debate fuel economy if I set the cruise on the highway she sits pretty at between 6 and 6.5L per 100km !!
Oh, I live in New West, and work out at Signature Mazda!

Is your car winning blue? I park behind Fenders too. In fact, in the row across from Signature. Always see a really low '07 black hatch, black '07 sedan with RX8's and now I noticed the blue sedan that is there is now lowered too.

I second that motion! The slammed black 3 hatch is too low for me .. His rides pretty harsh

Yeah his car is really low. What is he lowered on? Coilovers? Also, does a guy named Scott own the black sedan with rx8's? Lots of 3's in our row. I used to drive the white MS3 in the OpenRoad row. Now I have a white STI. I'll be sure to say hi if I see you!

Well, I know the sti ... And it is an sti, so I can't be to hard on you. You brought it in to switch the tires over right ? And the hatch has the eibach sportlines. The other one with the Rx8's isn't a Scott ... I'm the red head, Adam, though

Welcome.
I'd suggest you delete reply #2 in this thread... it's not something that you want to admit to in a posting. Just a suggestion, not a wise move with some of the other info you've disclosed in the thread.

Good call, I debated it ... I've just never been one to be overly cautious online.

It's nice. Brighter. Feels empty compared to the Lexus mall around the corner.
06 was the best ... Except the running light situation
