Well,I've been reading the Mazda 2010 reviews and the MPG isn't rated very good.I mean on S models .I thought the more gears you have the milage went up.

So, my gas milage is hurting because of the Dunlop Sports I put on for winter. I have the OEM eagles home in Maine . I sould get better milage, I think.
          However, on my Type S I have Michlen MXM vr rated and I can drive in the snow with them if I have too.
   I should of bought 16" rims and Michelin Pilots for the Mazda 3. I think it would handle well. Type S has 16"tires and rims.

Well,the Scirocco if it comes I'm trying it out.The specs are what I'm looking for.
                The interior leather looks of a higher quality, the cargo space looks the same, 200hp is the same except My S is naurally aspirated The O to 60 in 7.2sec seems about right because my V tec torque is on the high end.Scary to have it front wheel drive,but look at the speed 3.
           Whats the nomenclature of a dual clutch 6 speed tranny, does it double?I'm heading home to ME next week. I have a 2001 Silver Integra as an investment in storage with a custom CA cover on it. I'm keeping it. So the Mazda 3 I new value should have 8 or 9 k on it.I'll sell it and drive the Acura until the GTI and/or the Scirocco gets here. I should do well on resale values.
                     It's so difficult to get the cars you want. The Mazda speeed doesn't have a sunroof. Maybe it's because of a roll bar?That car is a rocket begging for track time.
                         The Sciroco is a clasic..We will have to see what the Euro is doing. Scioco is a sports car and GTI alot more conservative
   Thanks for the heads up Autonom have a nice Easter

Igo, methinks the Rabbit is 170HP 2.5 liter, the Xrs is a 2.4 liter and the Civic SI is the only DOHC they make at 197 horses.Well, out of all the cars you mentioned I bet the Civic Si which is geared with the same ratio of an Acura Type S gets the best mpg.(well,it's close anyway)
               I was told by someone on here, that Mazda auto tip tron because it was contolled by a computer and had more gears in the S model would give you the same as a 6 spd manual.
                 Whats the deal on putting an additive in your gas on account of E85 gas. Mazda wants you to have semi sythetic oil. Also, on My MSRP sticker milage for E 85 gas wasn't on it. So if you get less milage on E 85 The sticker milage is wrong.
