Shiro Shinobi - "White Ninja"

A new chapter has begun. For the first time in my life, and probably last time for long while, I have become the owner of a brand new car.

You all know me and my 2004 Performance White GT. She treated me well, but alas, she was on her last legs and I could no longer care for her with my limited amount of resources and knowledge of cars.

I'm keeping a record of my ownership of the car here: 2014 - An Ongoing Review

You need MOAR mods. That is all.

Well something got wet but it ain't my whistle

Those rims are soooo nice! and shiny too! She certainly is a beaut!

 

[TiGraySpeed6]

Geeez, look at that wheel gap. Get some window tint! Needs an intake! Needs Exhaust! Needs Wheels! Needs ricer body kit!


OK, not really.... White's a really sharp color on the new 6! I've been a fan of the gray (go figure), but that white is the business!

 

[YayITzToxic]

It's so pretty! that black grill looks extra sharp with the white paint.

I Will GLADLY get all that done if you're the one installing it for me, and you sign a waiver that makes you liable for any voided warranties and any/all repairs required because of said installed items


Agreed though, the pearl white really stands out in the sun. I'm loving all the turned heads I see as I drive by.

 

[AlikaMasika6]

Congrats on the new ride!!

 

[justsomeguy]

Ohhhh yeeeees!!!!

 

[Lara]

Very nice! I love the white..but then again I've always had a soft spot for white cars.

What is a warranty?

I think a 2013 Great Mazda Mt Climb Vinyl would be a nice additional mod though

OH Thanks for reminding me!
@bluepotpie - Andy if you're like me to stop by at some point so you can measure my windows for club stickers I'd be happy to.
@block8head if you wanted to look into Vent Pods for the 2014 I'd be happy to stop by for your measurements as well

Show me your ride....
Let me guess"Red?"

1st page of this thread

Pearl White FTMFW!

And I'm assuming that's a "yes please come in so I can see how a pod might fit, and possibly have sex with your car"


...................





Well, that escalated quickly.

 

[Deuce017]

Its so beautiful~ Glad to see you finally got your White 6. I need to pick a name for mine.:lol:

 

[block8head]

OMG, it's freaking gorgeous....

I'm gonna wait for the turbo version one.. hehe

 

[FFEMT6]

I think white has a way of making any car look sportier, and it looks especially good on the new 6. Can't wait for my local dealer to get one in in the pearl white. I really like the way the grille and side mirrors look in contrast to the white. I can't wait to see many more pics of your beautiful ride.

Shiro Shinobi - "White Ninja"

A new chapter has begun. For the first time in my life, and probably last time for long while, I have become the owner of a brand new car.

You all know me and my 2004 Performance White GT. She treated me well, but alas, she was on her last legs and I could no longer care for her with my limited amount of resources and knowledge of cars.

I have no mods planned (for now), mainly because I do not want to ruin perfection. The ONLY thing that I might change are the plate lights to a nice white LED because the yellow ones just don't do the white car justice.

I've already written my review of this car, so I will not write another. I am beyond ecstatic with this purchase, and I'm excited to Photo Dump in this thread at my earliest opportunity.

I present to you, my 2014 Snowflake Pearl White Grand Touring Mazda 6

Here are some cell phone pics to whet your whistles.

I'm thoroughly looking forward to working on this car for many years to come. I will be making a few threads in the 3rd gen section to try and help out other new owners and will update them as well as I can.

Welcome to the NEW Byakuya, same old post whore, new car! :lol:

That's awesome man, I'm glad you ended up getting what you wanted in the long run. Repping the third gen no doubt!

White makes it look amazing. All the advertisements are in the red lately.
