| Not Ranked : 0 score I'm 42. Got my 2012 Genpu July 31. Just turned 5K miles yesterday. Previously had a 05 RX8. I gave up and traded it after engine replacement at 70K. At least Mazda covered it, after all they are prone to engine fail. I am very pleased with my MS3. i pay $79/mo for full coverage.

| Not Ranked : 0 score LOL at you for complaining for high insurance! I am in my early 20s with no tickets/accidents on the policy and paying something like $150/month for the most basic insurance that there is. Which isn't different at all compared to when I used to own a Gen.1. Don't want to find out how much it is going to be on renew time since I got some tickets this summer... I am in Alberta, Canada in case that you guys are wondering. |

| Not Ranked : 0 score 34 y/o here. Ins is around 76/mo, full coverage, no rental or other un-neccessary bullshit. I liked these since they came out and pondered the idea of buying a Gen1 when it was new. And i really dispised the happy face front end but the car looks pretty good. Only other problem is that it resembles a mini-van in looks, not size. Last car was a 96 Cobra, was ragged out when I bought it, worst purchase ever, though it ran a 13.5 with mid-pipe back and 3.73 gears, street tires. |

| Not Ranked : 0 score My speed3 is the first car I bought for myself at age 32. If I bought a car and I were 16 right now, with the same budget, I'd get the same thing. If I were 20 years older, maybe I'd wait for the 2014 diesel 'speed6, since it will probably be more of a sleeper, and as my friends age, I'll need bigger rear seats to haul their flab. Besides, I'll never have kids, so the closest I'll come is my shiny growling silver panther. |

| Not Ranked : 0 score Turned 18 in June, got my Speed 6 in August. Paying too much for insurance but oh well. I'm paying 250/mo for the speed and 150/mo for my svx... comprehensive of course. No accidents, no tickets. Being young sucks for insurance.

| Not Ranked : 0 score Purchased my Speed 6 at 40 y/o as one of my birthday gifts to myself.....now 44....considered the Speed 3 but felt the 6 was a little more refined and mature...in addition to the sleeper factor...funny tho...i find myself considering purchasing a speed 3 to replace my aging SVT contour. As someone else said once you get on boost you're hooked...

| Not Ranked : 0 score Does anyone have experience switching insurance mid-cycle? I am 23, live in NorCal, have a clean driving record (no tickets, no accidents ever), have AAA, and pay $134/month for full coverage (I'm on the month-to-month plan). I heard that if I switch to other companies, my rate may go a significant amount as they treat the MS3 as trim of the MZ3. Will there be any significant penalties for switching (both monetary and not)? If not, which companies are good?
