    I'm Indecisive

    Yeah - I've had you run a few Carfaxes for me mostly with no luck. The most recent one is kind of promising. But I think it would need $2k+ worth of work, so I'd have to talk the guy down a bit. And for some reason I had trouble finding that how-to when I looked last (probably because I was...

    I'm Indecisive

    Reviving this thread with some more information . . . Ended up buying a 2010 Outback 3.6R Limited. It was marketed as a 1-owner vehicle, had 164k miles and had most of the service done at Subaru of Spokane (where we bought it). They even told us they'd done ~$2,600 worth of work (which...

    I'm Indecisive

    Yeah - my lack of mechanical savvy has me worried a Speed6 isn't right for me. I've got about $9k for a purchase and intend to put away $2k or so from my bonus in February, plus make a small "car payment" to myself going forward. So I could cover most moderate repairs, but anything major - or...

    I'm Indecisive

    I've kind of been considering a Speed3 as well. My preference for the Speed6 was two-fold in that: 1) I used to own a Speed6 prior to the birth of our 8-year old and 2) the AWD is nice for our snowy winters. With that said, there are WAY more Speed3s available and I could maybe pitch the wagon...

    I'm Indecisive

    Good Afternoon Mazdaspeed friends! I'm currently in a state of indecision and was hoping some of you might have some input. Here's the rundown: In June of 2021, we sold my wife's 2013 Explorer. We have (4) kids, but the oldest (2) graduated from high school and each have their own car...

    That Corksport event is one I’ve been trying to get to for YEARS. Back when I had my Speed6 the event always fell on inventory weekend (back in my Costco days) and there were no time off requests approved. Even if I don’t end up in a Speed, taking the wife’s CX-5 to Portlandia for an extended...

    I’d prefer a Speed6 for the AWD (and the reminiscing) but I’m open to a 3. I’m in N Idaho so we have real winters and the AWD on the Speed6 was handy. I had noticed a handful of the new member posts were Speed6s and though “what are the odds” - especially with them only being made for 2...

    HELLO MAZDASPEED PEOPLE! I'm considering a return to the Mazdaspeed life. About 8 years ago I sold my MS6 as my family was growing and we needed something bigger. We've now graduated (2) kiddos and only have (2) more who regularly travel with us, so we've begun downsizing. Last summer we...
