Went from a cavalier, to a turbo charged tc, then back to earth with a Mazda 3.
loving it so far. So I'm back to a full warrantee, less maintenance, no rattles, regular fuel (thank god), and no more car issues (blowing charge pipes and dead ignition coils). Miss the power, but don't miss the problems woot. The other big reason I traded the tc in was back on the 11th of July I got engaged, and as soon as I get a few other things in my life worked out I'll be moving up to New York. Since the tc didn't have a cat, it might have had some issues getting it registered and passing the emission tests up there. Won't have to worry about that now

Here's a close up of the paint.

Cats aren't a big issue if you know someone willing to help ya out. Just as long as your car isn't throwing any codes, your good to go!
Ah, one of my favorite cars...
Beautiful!
I got a friend that wants that exact car for his family car now he now has a kid and his old corolla and wifes old accord don't really have any safety features.
How many steps to heaven, Doc?

if his kid is an infant tell him to find something else. we had a 3 hatch and got rid of it do to the lack of room. with the baby seat behind the passenger seat my wife had to sit in the back with him because even with her only being 5'-6" there wasnt enough room up front because of the lack of back seat space. other then that we loved ours.

Upstate New York near Utica.
The car was throwing a code
. It didn't like the fact it was missing a cat.
Yah my tC didn't have all the airbags and stuff in it, the 3 has curtain and side impact airbags, audio aux port, on steering wheel audio and cruise control, and projector head lamps

my tC has all that stuff you mentioned stock... then again i have a 08 and we got all the cool stuff
mazda 3's are great cars though i wouldn't say they are really an upgrade to a tC more like a side step... but atleast you don't have to deal with the rattles (yet)
good luck with the new car
