I do not have one yet, but looking to buy right now. I'm 55. Have a vette and a Mazda3 that I use for my more practical car. But now want something practical but a little more fun. The vette spoiled me.

LOL, My wife wasn't a fan either at first. After she's driven it a few times her opinion has changed. Good luck.

My wife just shook her head and said "Well at least it's a hatch-back!".

Yeah, she was pissed cause I told her I was going to lease a cheap 2011 base 3 sedan to use as a daily for work, and ended up buying the speed instead. Everytime she gets in it, she says wow, this thing rides like shit, and these seats are horrible. And forget about me having to put super in it, she's always like just put regular in it, it's not like it's a sports car it's just a Mazda station wagon lol. So how I got her to stop bitching was I went to the BMW dealer we always buy her cars from and asked to trade it in for a 2012 fully loaded M3. No more bitching after she heard about the monthly on that. Thank God she can't drive stick, cause she probably would
crash my Mazda station wagon on purpose.

Obviously not in same class as a Vette, but the MS3 is one hell of a car for the money. Easy to work on also. The MS3 is also a great car for AutoX if you ever want to give that a try. Once you do it once, your hooked. I never lost an AutoX event in my MS3 and my times were better then most fully bolted STI's also.

I'm in grad school and my truck wasn't cutting it anymore. I wanted something with more than 2 seats, has a/c, gets decent mileage, is fun to drive, can carry my bikes, and won't break the bank. only 1 car really fell into all my categories, and here i am.
Hah 19, bought mine 6 months back. and I totally agree, no baggy pants, or any of that shit...I go through cars like water. But this will not be my last speed3 Im sure, Unless I finally bite the bullet n force myself into an sti or evo. Thats the best thing about the speed3 and Mazda knew that. This car appeals to the vast majority of males in the US. Decent room, good gas mileage, fun to drive, extremely customizable. No matter your age, you can make your car fit your personality.

40 when I got mine. I wanted a practical daily driver (4 doors, hatch, decent mpg) that also had some power. After researching Suby and other cars this car was the clear winner. I want to get to Stage 2 on the MS3, but my 5.0 has been neglected long enough and needs new paint.

doobs004 03-02-2012 08:06 AM
24, had two other quick little cars in my short life. I'm young but fully respect the power this thing has when you get on it.

we just did our taxes and I thought we would be getting like 5k back but ended up getting 8+. I figured it was my only shot at getting my parts. When my wife finally gave in she yelled "I have a 38 year old fraking teenager here!"

Funny thing, my girl said the same thing.
Although she is only 23 so she has no room to talk lol (I'm 31)

23 when I bought my 2007 Mazdaspeed 3...had to sell that one later that year. Had a kid and decided wife should stay home.

27 when I bought my 2011 Mazdaspeed 3! Loving it

ripnbigc 03-05-2012 05:17 AM
My wife bitches about my 2012 everytime she rides with me. She really didn't want me to buy it. She couldn't understand why I traded my 2010 Mazda 3 for it. I think she's been more pissed about this than anything else in our 26 yrs of marriage. She won't even drive it and she loves driving fast cars. I think she's afraid she'll like it too much and would rather be pissed off. Hee Hee. I bought it November and she's still pissed.

Its mostly guys in their late 30's or 40's that drive MS3 I see. I'm 26 and I just bought a 2012 MS3 a month ago. The long travel truck isn't too street or gas friendly as a daily.
