well its not set in stone yet, but it looks like i'll be joining the versa club in the near future. I'm looking at getting a versa sl in june, so we'll see how that goes. like i said theres still some details to work out, but its pretty much a positive thing. unfortunately it'll be auto but we're going for black with black interior . i'm pretty excited and really looking forward to itedit- rofl, i just saw my title typo

Why the change?

[White Comet]

its for the wife. we'll have the money for it and a nice, new car with some room will be nice once we start having kids. we just have a car to get rid of now

[White Comet]

false alarm. i drove 2 versas yesterday, and im pretty sure we arent getting one

[biggie]

The neighborhood is safe for a while then.

[White Comet]

^ hah, unlikely, were getting a mazda3 s touring

[White Comet]

well its definite, no versa for us. the mazda3 gets here on wednesday

[Vahagn23]

so what changed your mind?

[White Comet]

well essentially the mazda3 is superior in a lot of ways, but im not busting on the versa. i still like it

I owned 2 Mazdas in my life. Both were Nightmares that I wish I never had....

Things were breaking on it all the time. The first Mazda 626 I inherited and it sucked. The second ok I bought a protege and boy did that one suck even more, damn check engine light kept coming on for no reason (had it checked out several times).

I hate Mazdas and I am glad someone decided to hit mine and total my protege cause now I have my baby Versa....

[White Comet]

lol sorry, you wont derail a hardcore mazda fan. i had mazdas before i ever had nissans. i love my fc and my first mazda was a 626 that never gave me any problems. i love my mazdas and the 3 will be in tomorrow night. i might make a thread in gen chat to post pics

I had a '97 626, it was nothing but a headache... but that's not to say all Mazdas suck. I honestly like the styling of the Mazda 3, and RX-8 way more than I like any Nissan products. Ever seen a Mazda Cosmo? very nice, sleek sports car.

[White Comet]

i had a 93 626 4 cyl. it needed a new clutch at 120k and that was it. im not really a fan on the mx3, but the rx8 is pretty nice. slower then my fc but still a fun car. the cosmo is indeed very nice

I have a 2008 V SL and my fiance has a 2007 4 door Mazda3. It's a good little car but we've been having tire pressure issues. Every three months the tire pressure light comes on and we have to go get it topped of (she has Nitrofill). Also, just last week it began to stall for no reason (it's an auto) and her brakes lose pressure so we have to take again to have that looked at.

Other than that I'd say the 3 is pretty nice. I was actually looking at getting a 5 door but decided that it would be boring if we both had the same car. But I really like the Phantom Blue color on it.

[White Comet]

when u say stall, does it become sluggish between 1k - 3.5k rpms?

[Knightro2]

I wasn't driving when it happened. My fiance has had it happen to her twice so far when she is by herself and then once when I was riding with her and we pulled into our apartment complex. We were in the turn lane so the rpms must have been low. As she was about to turn it just died.

[White Comet]

ive heard that the car sometimes feels sluggish or stalls because of the etb. ground the etb to the neg battery post

i think its because mazada is partners with ford now, thats why your mazda keeps dying
