heheheh, you guys are funny...a Mazda 3 is just a Mazda 3.....nothing exciting to share. 
...I may not be at the Memorial cruise, as I may not have an 8 to drive.

nope, no itch at all actually. The car looks fine the way it is, and as I expressed to Erica...if I started modifying that car it would look like I was trying to hard to make it something it is not. It is a cheaper car, and adding mods to it would just make it look like a kid drove it....which would attract cops (been there, done that....would rather not attract cops or mod my car beyond the warranty like I did with the 8). We were contemplating the Red Mazda 3...but felt the same way...red is for sports cars and this is not a sports car...getting a red one would just be like faking it....or trying to masquerade as a MS3.

8 has a buyer....but now I hit a snag since the guy who wanted the Volks doesn't have the money ready...so, I don't know what to do now.

Easier said then done, I know but no sense in waiting around for that guy to come up with the $$$.Maybe try selling those wheels on another car forum? What other cars would those fit?

I just bumped my threads about the wheels....yup, I need cash in hand. Would love to give them to saki as they would be perfect for the way he is setting up his car, but timing is critical.
Yes person who is interested in the car doesn't have the money for the car as it sits....so I have to part out some things to lower the price of the 8.
...remember guys, I need an OEM swap as well...as I can't sell a car with no wheels.
If anyone is interested in posting a craigs list, go ahead. I've never used that site before.

tell the car buyer to stop being such a CHEAP *** and just fork over another $1,500.

Yeah, if I can't find anyone to buy the Volks...I'll just have to wait for someone who is willing to buy the car as it is. I had some options when we had the white one...I could have taken the stock wheels off that while I found a buyer for the Volks....but we don't have that flexibility now.
I'll post in the LAX thread.

hmmm, interesting question Loren Do the Enkei RPF1's fit the 3
Well, I do know that Mazda 3 owners do buy the 8 stock wheels...so we can assume that the bolt pattern and offsets on the stock RX8 wheel fits the 3.....it may be something fun to do on a weekend sometime just to see how far those thing stick in or out.
Heck, if they fit, maybe I can just autocross the 3 with the big ole fat 285 rubber
Just kidding erica

Speed....check out who is running BSP now Results are up for the January event. Looks like we have 4 cars in CSP....with 6 drivers. Big gap between the Ken Lord car with our Enkei wheels and the last place driver....I wonder how close we will be to that car when we get the car up and running.
I couldn't find Aaron on the list...didn't take much time to look, but noticed he wasn't in BSP.
