2010 Mazda 3 2.5L

After my old car bit the dust, I started looking for a new car. My parents neighbor had just bought a new truck and had a 2010 Mazda 3 just sitting in the garage. After talking to him we ended up settling on a price.

Currently the car is pretty stock, except for some speaker upgrades. Come spring I would like clean it up a bit and add some personality.

To Do List

-Front splitter
-Upgraded rims
-Roof Rack
-Detail

I'm actually stoked to see this!
After owning a Mazda 3, and having my lady own an 07 GT, I've fallen in love with them.

Quiet, cheap, surprisingly sporty.. they're overall a fun car.

I ended up lowering hers on springs, have a rear sway bar, wheels and tires ready to slap on for spring, a lip, rally armor flaps, etc.

Had some rattling in the driver side door, so I took off the panel and added some padding. Hopefully this helps.

Decided to replace the cabin air filter, since I wasn't to sure when it was last replaced. It ended up being pretty dirty, so It was probably a good idea that I changed it.
