Default Mazda Speed3 in for Recalls.
So I got home last night to 2 additional recalls on my car for a total of 3 so far.
#1: Engine Mount bolt #4 can wiggle loose
#2: OBD-II needs updating as it wouldn't tell me if something is wrong
#3: Malfunction Indicator Lamp malfunctions...irony.

So I got a free rental car. Gave me a base Mazda 6. I gotta say that I am impressed with the feel and build of the 6's. Comfy, nice size, handles well, and the tranny is decent...a little sluggish, but that is because it is the weak engine.

But it has the cool switchblade style key.

Not a practical car at all.

MS3 is practical and faster than the RX-8 (I believe)
