Hey guys, I never really got around to posting a "new guy" thread. And so I figured its better late than never.
I drive an '09 Mazda 6i Grand Touring MTX. I got her July 19 at 2400 miles. Now she's up to almost 9600 miles. Absolutely love the car. I actually just happened to stumble upon her at a dealership when car hunting and got an Amazing deal. Its my second car. I drove a '98 Kia Sephia for 3-4 years before this one. My parents chose my 1st car for me, so I was pretty much stuck with it. Always wanted a manual but the Kia was automatic...boring. And let's just say going from that car to this fully loaded 6 is definitely an upgrade of a couple of levels haha.
Here's a pic of my old car next to my new baby a few days after getting her.
Went on a short cruise to a local car meet with some of my friends. 2 ms3's and a mazdaspeed miata. One of my friends in his ms3 took some rolling shots while he was driving haha. here are some:
i just drilled into the bumper where the lower grill is. so if i decide to get rid of it for some reason there will be no visible holes. i didn't have anything to mount the bracket to the radiator hole with. worked well though.
For a second there I thought you had gone crazy and installed a mini sat dish on your roof and then I realized it was just the neighbors basketball hoop lol. Plate looks better than I expected. Still not a huge fan but glad you like it after doing the work.
6Y MAZDA the car looks great! I just HAD to go through all 15 pages of this thread . I've always liked the looks of the newer 6's, now I'm just trying to talk my mom into getting one . But once again looks great, keep up the good work!
thanks a lot man! i take pride in what i've done. thanks for following my mod voyage haha. i know it's getting quite long! thanks for the compliment and definitely see about convincing your mom to get one! haha
