For those that expect to see me at Inzane this year in my Miata

[solo1]

forget it.  Times aren't so good.  I traded the Miata and the Highlander in even up for a 2011 Mazda 3 Sport.  Still Zoom, Zoom, tho.

I no longer could afford two cars. Don't even mention " You can't hide money" to me.  Note that I said EVEN UP!

I still have, and intend to keep, the Vstrom 1000.  Hopefully, I'll trailer it to Inzane.

I like the Three very much but it's not the same as the Miata.  However, I'll live, LOL

all that matters is that you still have your health. i look forward to seeing you this summer and hopefully we can ride together.

Mazda 3 hatchback is on my favorite car list. Good choice.

Wayne,

Are you gonna install a "holy $hit" bar on the Mazda 3 before we go out for a ride????   

I'm not even sure what that looks like... I'll google it for a picture.

I think of you every time I see a Miata... don't see many around here during winter tho...

I'm looking forward to seeing you at InZane...

2011 Mazda 3 Sport....Hopefully, I'll trailer it to Inzane.

Good choice on the 3.  I drove a 6 half-way across the country several years back and was impressed.

However, I don't think I've ever seen a Mazda 3 with a trailer behind it.   ???

If I go, I'll trailer it behind my son's GMC.  He's riding the Valk.  The 3 isn't rated for a trailer.

Congrats!
 I think you can put a trailer on it. You can put trailers on anything. I've seen Buicks, Vetts, etc pulling trailers. Heck bikes arn't rated to pull trailer but they do.

Very cool car Wayne!

Paul, I like the hatch back too but I couldn't quite make the deal on it.  I have the 4 door sedan.  Not quite the trunk capacity but looks nice especially with the spoiler and dual exhaust. The handling is taut and responsive, similiar to the Miata.  Reminds me of a German car.

I especially like the 'goofy' grin because it drives the car enthusiasts "Elite' absolutely nuts!

Brian, I think that the Three will handle about 1200 pounds towing but why bother, I can use Mark's GMC rated at 7,000 towing.

We just never outgrow our need for toys, Wayne, looking forward to seeing you in July!
