i finally let my friend (she's 16) drive my Mazda3 after she had a quick lesson on her friend's 323. i let me just say, she didnt stall my car once.....i was really impressed! when i first got my car, i stalled it, squeeled the tires, all that stuff. she jsut zoomed around an empty parking lot in first and second gear, with no problems at all. you shoulda seen the smile on her face....priceless

wow....this post is really pointless....i guess im just really bored.....

 

ahh the famous smile after driving a Mazda. I have seen that before. It really makes me feel proud when I see that!

 

Driving a manual seems to becoming a lost art. I can't wait to own another one. I have a dakota with 160k on it and i don't think it would be around if it was auto. Most new automatics are junk and rarely last. Especially chrysler and ford. LOL
