I see a lot of new car threads so I figured I'd throw mine up here as well.

Lots of fun to drive.

CleanNeon98 · 11-08-2009, 09:53 PM

Nice but looks like it's seen paintwork before.

JDMTyler3326 · 11-08-2009, 09:57 PM

Looks very nice man.

Eclipse GSX 61 · 11-09-2009, 03:13 AM

Nice minus the wheels. They look a bit cheap.

If you're referring to the 2nd pic where the door looks like a different color - it's just the picture.

The wheels came on the car when I bought it. It was a lease and the guy put wheels on and turned the car in like that, for whatever reason. They are Maxxim wheels which are made by Konig.

If and when I get extra cash maybe I'll get something else but for now I'm broke. I'd rather spend money on other parts like CAI etc. though.

Whitekryptonit3 · 11-09-2009, 06:54 PM

Mazdaspeed correct?

What part of CT are you from?

Supersprynt · 11-09-2009, 07:02 PM

Yep Speed6. I'm in Danbury.

Chefsp0t · 11-09-2009, 08:46 PM

Nice speed6. Have fun with it. They're awesome cars.

JDober87 · 11-10-2009, 12:24 PM

coilovers any time soon?

Supersprynt · 11-10-2009, 01:10 PM

I'd like to lower it, but I also want to retain a nice ride as this is my daily. So I'm not sure what direction I'll go with it.

I've been driving a Wrangler exclusively for over a year so just this thing in stock form is great for now.

Oakes · 11-10-2009, 01:15 PM

Looks clean, but definitely a change in wheels is in order. Good luck with it!

Supersprynt · 11-10-2009, 01:41 PM

Damn you guys really hating on the wheels. I didn't even think they looked too bad. I like the idea of black wheels on silver car.

Here's a pic from the dealer before I bought it:

BigWhiteTodd · 11-10-2009, 01:44 PM

I like the color, idk black wheels with the silver lip seen it way to much.

Supersprynt · 11-10-2009, 02:13 PM

I hear ya.

tomustang · 11-10-2009, 02:37 PM

It's not mainly the rims looks but the size profile as well

Supersprynt · 11-10-2009, 02:47 PM

Yeah - like I said I didn't pick them out, I would've gone with a higher profile tire myself (and a completely different wheel) but it is what it is for now.

abrok99 · 11-10-2009, 02:59 PM

try trading someone your rims for stockers.

car looks good though.

Supersprynt · 11-10-2009, 03:07 PM

I thought about it - stockers came with summer tires, so as long as I get something all weather that's fine, but these have brand new Pirelli all-season tires.

Chefsp0t · 11-10-2009, 09:58 PM

They make some nice front lips for those.

Supersprynt · 11-10-2009, 11:17 PM

I'll probably do very little aesthetically. Maybe a shark fin antenna, some smoked side markers and yellow fogs but I def. want a CAI - from what I hear the stock boxes are super restrictive and the AEM has seen gains of 29hp.
