New Mazda 3

[zap50]

I will soon be the proud owner of my very own mazda 3 gt with the gfx package , and was wondering if I could get some help on a couple of issues. I was going to get a silver one but tonight I saw a white one in a parking lot under the lights and holy #@*% It just stood out and you could not help but notice it. What I was wondering is what is other peoples opinions? What would you get? Can sombody show me a couple of pics of a white one and a silver one ? Any help would be greatly appreciated , thanks...ZAP.

Welcome....
Good job Double posting.....
I wouldn\'t bother with the Sedan, Womans car.
Go for a Hot Hatch!!! SILVER
Lots of pictures on this site... look around

[TheProfessor]

As Sabio mentioned, there are a ton of pictures here, just search around. Trying the pics and vids section might be a good start ;) As for colour, both are really nice IMO, but keep this in mind.....the white is one of the most popular colours of late, whereas silver seems to be a bit more rare. Either way you\'ll be happy.

I think the silver is a very underestimated colour on the 3; not many silvers but when you see it it looks very very nice

[Broli]

Welcome Zap!

look around have fun,
buy a WHITE 3
and come to the meet and park between PSIVIC and SABIO!

yeah . .

perfect!

:P


as for the colours, i like the white, silver was the popular colour for ever car for awhile
but things have changed,

hey man, truth be told
u can\'t go wrong with either colour!

Especially since one of them isn\'t orange :p

Congrats on the new car purchase and welcome to the club. With respect to your comment about the white under the lights you\'re right. Before purchasing my car (not white so don\'t ask me that) I had seen the Snow Flake White Pearl in just the right light and it always stood out in my mind. The problem I had with the colour is that it was too subtle for my taste and the wow factor you referred to was dependent on how the light hit it. The Silver is a pretty good colour on the car if the car is kept clean and as someone already posted the colour is underestimated on the Mazda3.

Colour is very personal and as such should reflect your character. Have fun!

Hey Zap,

I think you should you go for the Pearl White. I think the silver is too common. I work at Prima Mazda and have just about every colour on the lot...if your interested in seeing the real thing

hmmm . . .

last i checked BOTH of them aren\'t orange

:sarc

We all know Zap would have got orange if he had the option!

of the colours that are available now, i would get . . .
hmm winning blue or copper red,
probably copper red though
damn we need yellow!

Go with the white! Okay so I\'m biased :D

I didn\'t buy my M3 brand new, but if I had a choice of colors, it would be either white or red (especially after seeing the red in person in the Avante showroom).

Here\'s a pic of my white sport with my winter tires and steelies:

I\'d go with the red if i had another choice at that time. The red really does look sexy if it rides on gold rims with polished lip 17s. HAWT!

[ds2chan]

between those two choices I\'d go with snow flake white pearl (or whatever it\'s called).. man, they should\'ve made the name smaller.. silver doesn\'t look so hot anymore in my opinion.. let us know what u choose and have fun with ur 3.. :)

What\'s wrong, man? I half expected to see the \"Don\'t get white\" post from ya!

[SABIO]

I like that sunlight silver... very shiny.. not that boring titanium grey.

EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!! It looks so..... so.... plain and white..

We will call your car... powder puff... maybe cotton ball ..

[MattD]

hey hey hey there is nothing wrong with titanium grey it matches my oakleys and when it is nicely polished it looks hot. i do agree tho that there is a lot of them out there and that is why i am starting to make mine more unique

[zap50]

I have talked to the dealer today and told him I would like an arctic white ,not a common color out here in the prairies . So I will have to wait and see , there are two coming but he does not know if they are spoken for yet and I will have to wait another 3-4 weeks now , so I will find out tomorrow if it will be mine , if not silver will do ,as we all know they are all fine looking no matter what the color.:)

I say go with ur first instincts.. don\'t settle for another color even tho u like it or somewhat like it.. go with the color you get excited about.. :p

[zoominsales]

hey im new here, im also in sales at erin mills mazda. personally i think the carbon grey colour is the best, or well at least to my eyes. at night the car looks black but when driving and having the light bounce on/off the car it looks like it changes from grey to black, a beautiful colour to settle with. any other questions feel free to ask.

shout out to broli! and kenyork! thanks for coming and checking me.

That is hella sweet man. Congrats!! I got my car within 5 days of waiting and that alone seemed like an eternity...so hang in there and just keep staring at the pic in the meantime :D

[zap50]

Well three weeks ago I finally got it!! What do you think?

[bluntman]

Nice. I\'ve always asked myself, if I bought the sedan, which would I get, the spoiler or the wing. I now know the answer.

The wing.

Now start customizing it!!! It\'s already been three weeks for heaven\'s sake!!!

:D

Sask. We have done away with the front plate one or two years ago I think , not sure why , saves SGI some money? I like the cleaner look of the front end without it anyway.:)
