Proud New 2013 MS3 Owner !
 

Finally got my 2000 Subaru Impreza Ouback Sport sold and got myself a 2013 MazdaSpeed 3 with 10,000 miles on it for $20,800! It was previously owned by a older man who was a mechanic at a Mercedes dealership so I know it was well taken care of. He upgraded to an Evo so lucky him and lucky me because this was the cleanest 2013 MS3 within 200 miles of me and I looked everywhere and I wasn't going to settle if I didn't find the one I wanted.

I have only owned this car for a week but I am in love with it. Driving is so much fun, especially driving a powerful manual car (first time owning a manual), and I can't wait to start doing modifications.

I want to start building up to a Cobb Tuning Stage 2+ Power Package and then suspension, wheels, exterior/interior, ect, later on.

I am happy with how the car looks right now, might add some rally armor mud flaps in the near future though. The car came with the mirrors and front lip already red and I wasn't a fan at first but I kinda like it now.

If anyone has any tips or suggestions for me I am all ears!

Welcome, that looks nice!

Read your welcome PM, it'll have everything you need to know to get up and running around here and potentially answer any questions you have

Lol by front lip you mean the previous owner painted the stock pieces around the bumper red?

Yes sure whatever

Very clean car. Congrats. The red lip and mirrors are a bit ricey for me (so are mudflaps), but nothing you can't change with a little paint should you wish to do so.

the rice is strong here, and mudflaps too, don't do it because I will flame you.

welcome!

You are in Irvine right? Donating gets you access to the for sale section. You can find plenty of deals (think half off) on parts if you are patient.

Whalecumm to the forums. She looks nice an clean. .

Welcome like mentioned above donate and experience every thing msf has to offer!

Welcome to this awesome community!!!!!!

Welcome! LSM FTW

where do I donate and how much ?

if I get rid of the red is it okay if I get black mud flaps ? haha

Its your car do whatever the hell you want. You want fucking rainbow wheels go for it.
I personally love my mudflaps. I think they look good and they actually keep the car much cleaner (which is something I am anal about. I can see were they are considered rice, but I could care less because they are functional.

Click the pink thing on top of the page that say "VIP membership"

Yeah I definitely want mud flaps. I also really want to get the 3M Clear Bra Kit for the front of the car because once it starts to get all those little rock chips here and there I am going to lose my mind.

After I donate where is the For Sale section ?

In the section labeled, "For sale" Pretty sure you cant see it if you are brown.

Okay that's what I figured. Just checking.

Welp I'm usually around the Irvine area in a white MS3. Welcome to the forums!

Sick ! I work right by John Wayne airport and I go to school at Irvine Valley College so I'm always around.

Haha yeah your photos look like they're around the MacArthur & Redhill area or so?
I actually work further south near Spectrum but I drive around a good amount.

Congrats on the new car

Congrats and welcome, personally, I don't like the red, but if you like it, keep it.

Welcome.

I say get rid of the red asap @evanreynolds1116;
