And the Hyundai dealers still want to put me in a Veloster N.
I’m intrigued by both but I still suspect I’d tire of FWD.

Mazda was headed downhill years ago when they shortened their 4 year warranty to 3 years.

Are there any machine shops out there that specialize in "rebuilding" parts when replacements are hard to come by?
I have seen a few cases on some of the you tube channels. The car wizard just sent out a prowler window regulator to get rebuilt, since replacements were either impossible to find, or at least super expensive.

I think Hoovie has a Vantage and he claims it’s been trouble free.
I could see owning that Mazda 6 although I wouldn’t pay much because of the mileage. I know the Speed3 used a 2.3L, what motor did they put in the Speed6? Oh never mind, it’s right there in the ad. Disappointing, I’d think they’d want to go up to a 3.0L for the larger car.

I see you already are planning on multiple accounts.
Nobody will see the connection between Qbrozen01 and Qbrozen02.

also wicked cool with the handshaker. Not sure I even knew you could get the hardtop convertible with a manual. Great colors too. Would love to have this.

and this looks like something Hoovie just sent off to the wrecking yard.

interested to see that Car Wizard actually has a lot more subscribers now than JR.

As for the B7 I loved the one I drove to Fort Worth for Oktoberfest 2007. It even acquitted itself pretty well on the track. I wouldn’t want something that big but I would happily take a B3- but of course BMW NA doesn’t bring those in.
