Default My new toy, got a new daily

Well I was riding around a 94 Explorer and loved the 4wd, but it clicked over 200k and it was time to move on. Today I got a brand new 2011 Mazda3. I absolutely love the car:










I'm trying not to dump ANY money into this thing, but its going to be hard!

Nice car man, my friend has one of those (07 model with the base 2.0) and the bolt on gains are kinda minimal from what we've seen. Yours might be different since its a slightly revised engine (better hp/tq and more disp right?) .

He got a SRI and exhaust wise he went with catback... Suspension mods made his car really fun though. Happy modding!

hahaha Fred, you have always known I've looked up to you! Have you done anything to yours at all?

Yeah, I'm seriously not expecting to make this car into an animal...but just doing some research if there are any mods out there actually worthwhile doing
