I've been a Mazda man a long time - I'm currently on my 3rd RX7 (1st gen) and am now shopping the MZ3 Sport (daily driver) and could use a little advice...
I've searched around this forum and found a ton of usefull stuff - now I'm getting ready to place my order - just a couple of questions:
1) What are your thoughts on the leather interior on this car - I found it to be very stiff and nowhere near the quality of the RX8 - anyone got it and is it breaking in to a softer feel (I know it's a new car and most may not have owned it long enough to comment) -
2) 17" wheels / tires - I assume they will be crap in the snow (even with the all-seasons) - any advice or experience? Can this thing be a daily driver in winter climates without winter rims/tires?
3) Color - I'm having a tough time with this one and I know color is a personal preference - but there are 2 or 3 that look awesome (Tit grey, Blue mica, and the silver) - I'm just loking for a few comments on what htis group prefers.
4) I love the sporty feel of this car - but has anyone taken it out for a long drive? How's the comfort and noise on the highway?
thanks all - BTW, great forum withs tons of good info
6) Good damn thing the A/C doesnt automatically come on. So you can bust 90 degrees to your windshield if you want... but the only drawback is, it automatically switches from recirculation to vent air.
