The 2007 white is called Crystal white and it is not an additional charge. The 06 was Whitewater Pearl Mica and it was an additional $200. I'm trying to find an 07 grand touring white automatic. So far no luck and I'm not going to be overcharged because they are are slow in getting them out. The dealers all act like I'm looking for a 'rare car'. I'll wait - but I wish they'd get with it!

It's a Mazda, not a Honda or a Toyota. You'd be looking at $500-$1000 over invoice for most dealers and possibly at invoice for others if they're reasonable. You can always walk away if it's not working out for you at a dealer.

They look ok... similar to the CX7 rims... But does anyone know if we can still option for the 5 spoke rims that were on the 06's? I'm digging the new colors, but not really the new wheels...

I disagree with your comment on the 3 not having the 200.00 extra charge for the crystal white pearl.. This same color is offered on the new CX-7 and yes, there is a 200.00 extra charge.

You can if you wish. I trying to get the 07 Grand Touring but the dealer will charge me to swap the rims for a 06. Also, what do you is the best deal for a hot car like the 07 grey, grand touring with auto trans and sunroof/6 cd package? The price the dealer is offering me is $24,000. What do you think considering all the 06 titanium grays are all sold out and the grays for 07 are selling like crazy and the dealers in Northern California are charging top dollars for these cars.

Wrong information. Crystal white is a pearl paint and it's $200.

I hate to break it to you, but, you ARE looking for a rare car. All dealers custom order all their inventory, with the acecption of a few gimmies from the port, and I can tell you that a white Mazda3 is rare. Not many dealers order them.
In MY 2006, I had to locate a Mazda3 GT in Whitewater pearl and the closest was 300 miles away, and this was in the winter. So, Mazda3 supply was plentiful then.

You're not the only one not digging the new wheels. I think they look kinda crappy, personally.
The '06 5-spokers, on the other hand, looked great. Why did Mazda have to RUIN a good thing? Ditto on the 'mesh' grill replacing the slat grill for '07 for much of the Mazda3 lineup. Looks especially like a styling downgrade on the 5-door!
Boo Mazda, you're making me eye Civics and Fits again. And all you had to do was leave the (great) styling and wheels alone. I guess if it ain't broke, break it.

Hmm, I actually think it looks more refined and sexy. The galaxy gray looks great on the new 3. Im going to upgrade to a GT this year, maybe in May of 07 once I have had a chance to view what color options are available. And the new gray interior is really nice.

Don't forget to check out the Mazdaspeed3. It's not much more then the Mazda3 GT.
