Is there a LSD?

 

Yes to the LSD

 

i think that thiss will be competing with the Caliber SRT-4 and the RSX.. Hey are Mazdaspeed vehicles limited production models? THe Protoge was only produced for 2 years.

 

Why do you make so many threads

 

+1
count is 84 posts and 48 threads started is there a reason for starting 3 threads a day?

just buy a car you like and can afford

 

Well they just flushed it down the pot with FWD. Is it a real OEM turbo fitment unlike the MSP?

 

What do you mean by real OEM turbo fitment?

 

Who cares why! seriously... I was reading through motor trend and I thought I'd post... seriously isn't that what this place is for??? Oh yeah it is!

 

oh and no AWD, thank god! All these companies trying to get in on our fun! geez...
anyway, im just hating!

 

Instead of that ebay special they hung off the side of the MSP.

 

They're all done on 1 year production runs. I don't think they're extremely limited, but you've only got one year to get one (new).

 

That's too bad, I thought it was going to be AWD. A car that size with AWD and decent power, would probably be a nice cheaper alternative to an EVO.

The Mazdaspeed 6 is AWD though isn't it?

 

Really. So the MS6 is only going to be for one year? Probably for the good. I went by on Sunday just to check them out the dealer had like 8 of them just sitting there looking as if they hadn't been moved in a while under an inch of pollen.

Ha ha, I didn't realize it was that bad. But it was a T25 after all, was it not? 2G DSMers knew that was garbage back in '95. I think the whole car wasn't really engineered to be a robust turbo vehicle,but more like an N/A car with a budget turbo system entireily. The piping and intercooler (and most likely fuel system) are lame too.

 

Yes.
