I would lease it, but I don't know where I will be in 2-4 years. Not saying I won't be paying for it, but I don't want to go over my mileage. Other things gotta have it worked on at the dealership to stay up with the lease. Unless that is a rumor?



Not going today AGAIN, **** *** weather. I may just bite the bullet and say **** it, let's go. Would be fun in the rain no?? Hehe.



When did they first hitting the showrooms? 3-4 months ago? Or earlier than that? I would not suspect very much from service bulletins when it's only been out for a few months. Takes time for **** to start happening to them, if it's not due to driver error.

I freaking love mine. Driving it is a blast.



3k on it in 5 months and no problems yet. I boost that thing every chance i get too...



I cant wait to mod mine a little bit, they should be damn fast without the restrictive tune, it eletronically cuts the throttle at high rpm to bleed boost.



until that though, it pulls hard!

Are you 100% happy with it? NO regrets? I really want one, I just won't be able to do anything for about 6 weeks, and they look damn sexy in black! Other colors I don't really care about.

I never let the dealership work on any cars I have leased.

They also allow more damage then you would think.





Some give you free maintance, but you aint going to get that with Mazda.



it worked out BIG TIME for me on my lease for the 6. That car has no resale whatsoever, driving that car for 4 years on the lease is saving me over $7000 if I had chosen to purchase it instead of the lease.

does it cut throttle to bleed the boost or is it a dump valve at the throttle body? and does it do it to restrict the speed or does it do it to keep from overboosting. I know on our lysholm setups (vw) we have to bypass the ISV because it will bleed off boost anything above .8 bar to keep from overboosting. and there is a dump valve on the throttle body to keep the car from boosting at idle and low rpms that we mess with too. it rerouts the boost to intake untill 5 degrees off of WOT

Hmmm, does not sound bad to me at all. And I was looking more into a lease more than a purchase. My negative equity will be gotten rid of once I am done, which is my main goal right now, and I have another 4 years of the Jeep to deal with. Yeah, I was an idiot, purchased for 72 months.



Driving one today, and my Jeep is finally working out well, changing the front brake rotors next week.

One of the dealers has a 2006 MazdaSpeed6 with 9500 miles, color is white. I am not so big on white colored cars, but it looks good on the Speed6. But of course there was no price on the car, so the sales guy was dicking around with the price. I got out of there real quick. And the new car guys did not even notice me at all. I guess my tattoo's scared them away, and they thought "a broke *** **********er, he ain't got no money".



So yeah, I am gonna look up the price for that used one. I am liking the 6 alot now too, but it's more money.

cuts throttle.

not sure what it is on the speed 6, but my 6 is dirt cheap to insure, may want to compare the insurance on the 3 and the 6 to factor into the overall cost of ownership.
