Hello! I just moved to Denver from California. I got my 2009 true red MS3 in September, and I love it! I am a nursing student and I love technology and my min-pin billy! Here is my car.

This is my second mazda, the first was a 1990 red miata which I drove in high school. My dad still has it. It is still a fun car to drive, despite its age!

Welcome to the club, and nice pics! We have a few other ex-cali folk here, myself included. Where ya from?


Query: Did you get the car in Cali and then move? The front tint suggests you did not have it tinted in Cali, yet I swear the plate frame says oakland...

Thanks! Yes, I got the car from Mazda of Oakland. I was just naughty and ignored tint laws. I am originally from El Dorado Hills which is east of Sacramento, but the last couple years I have been living in the east bay. These pics were actually taken at the San Francisco airport right after I got the windows tinted.

Welcome to the club! I am also a semi recent California transplant. Used to live in Simi Valley. Nice MS3 by the way :)

Thanks everyone! I actually really like the snow. I prefer it over rain. I was told it didn't rain much here, but the last 2 days it has been raining. The weather definitely keeps you guessing doesn't it?

Over the summer it tends to rain quite a lot actually, or at least it did last summer and the summer before as far as i remember. But unlike Cali, it generally only rains for a few hours, not all day long.

Any mods on the Speed?

Not yet, I am keeping it pretty much stock for at least a year. We will see, I am not exactly rolling in cash right now :)

(Oh, I did get a leather armrest cover with red stitching to match my seats... haha)

Ahh, stock is not as much fun, ;) . Though i know exactly what you mean about money, since my unsuccessful snowboard trick i have not been to work. Coming up on two weeks. I need to start saving again for more mods.

Welcome
