Full report on the "meet"
Okay, so here's the story.
I found out that Mazda was at SFU on Thursday when I dropped by the ASB entrance and saw 2 Mazda 3's in there. (I was actually gonna get off at the first bus drop-off, but decided to stay on. Then there was an incident where the bus driver was very rude... so I was in a bad mood going towards the ASB from the bus loop. But seeing the MZ3 put a smile in my face... dunno why...).
Levitron and I decided to meet together a few days later (a very MINI Mazda 3 forums meet... oops, bad car pun). So on Monday, I went to the ASB a bit early to sit in one of the two Mazda 3s, experimenting with the tilt and telescoping options, as well as the seating arrangements. One of them was a red GT-GFX, the other was a white Sport GT. Soon enough, Levitron comes along... and for sitting in the Mazda 3 and getting our picture taken, we both got Mazda 3 t-shirts. Woot!! Levitron then just showed me around the entire HB, giving demonstration of the folding down rear seats and stuff.
After that, it was pretty much just Levitron giving me a ride in his Mazda 3 Sport GT. The car revved nice and was VERY very refined. Rough cornering was tight, but extreme cornering caused the wheels to hop.
Ah well, it was a good day. Levitron's a cool guy

And the ride was fun.
Now if only I can win that Mazda 3...
