NEW 06 MAZDA, my first!!

I just traded in my Jeep Compass (stupid car) for a 2006 Mazda 3 The s Grand Touring
It's beautiful and I love it!!!
 

 

 

 

ooooooooooh pretty. niice looking car. i have the mazda3 but i have the GS model (canadian right). looks nice but its an automatic. but still pretty

It has the sport tronic trans. where I can go to "manual" but I dont know how to drive a stick.  When I go visit my parents this upcoming weekend I will have my dad teach me!

too late isnt it. cuz its an automatic.. but the box is somewhat fun. however i learned in 2 days how to drive my manual soo yea. its not at all hard. if you have some knowledge on it. anyhow congrats on your mazda3. enjoy

Congrats!!  And welcome to the forums too!!
Titanium gray, huh?  Heated seats.  LED tails (wish I had those,) HID's w/manual adjust, Auto climate...  and what are you playing on the stereo?  Sweet Sue??
The man-u-matic, as I like to call, it is an automatic trans like any other w/a torque converter and manual shift mode, but it's still an auto.  No clutch. All you have to do is drop it into manual mode and shift up (+) or down (-.)  Easy!! 
 
 

Yes well I will definitely be learning the manual part of it... thank gosh for no clutch though.
 
I'm not sure what was on the radio-it was on sirius... haha.
 
Yup, I love the titanium grey color, it's very pretty lol!!

I own an RX-8 but have driven several 3's in the Mazda Rev It Ups when they came to Miami. The 3 handles great in the twisties. Congratulations and happy motoring.

thank you! It handles well on everything I do!  The dirt road I drive is bumpy but they need to fill in the "washboard" parts... otherwise it'd be an awesome ride... handled mountain driving beautiful too... dont think my husband will ever let me drive on the mountains again... my jeep made you want to throw-up (I have a 17 mile mountain to drive to get to cali)... this handled perfect.

I love it very much!
