Yeah, the potholes here have really been killing my city driving mojo. You can't see the fuckers until you're about 10 feet away, then all you can do is brace.

And does your commute involve rush hour QEW every day? If so, I feel bad for you son. That and the Gardiner during rush hour drive me crazy. DVP and 401 at least move at a constant(ish) pace.

It's got coils, a tune, diverter valve. If it was 4Motion, that'd be perfect. The other problem is that it would be sharing the garage with this:

The traffic alone, especially on Gardiner would drive me NUTS. :target:

Just for looks, like when people get CF vinyl wrap, brushed aluminum, and what not. It's a lot better than when people purposely rust out their parts lol.

Had a horrible service experience at Woodbridge Mazda today.

Called in weeks earlier to have them look at my gfs headlight that is out. They told me it's likely just the connector socket that has corroded and needed replacing. (said it was like a $10 part)

Brought the car in today to have it fixed. Service rep. refused to check the socket and said he had to run a $120 diagnosis. I said I didn't think it was necessary before checking the socket first - we went back and fourth and he then said he would check first.

After I handed him the keys and began walking to the seating area, he turned to another worker and loudly said "people think we work on cars for free". I then turned back, took the keys and told him I had enough of his attitude.

I understand how dealerships operate, but I don't appreciate being insulted to another colleague as I begin to walk away. Unacceptable behaviour for a dealership employee.

Sorry to hear, Mike.

This type of stuff happens everywhere to everyone - except this time you caught it and reacted to it.

Meh, some Mazdas are cool. And early 3s and 6s are STUPID cheap, even considering the rust issues. It's just that service advisor that sucks.

I still want an NA Miata... but they run for upwards of 1.5k when just 2 years ago I saw them averaging 800 bucks. =t

FD [then FC] will always be my dream car(s) though =]

By the way Aman, if you're not in Windsor anymore may I ask where you live now?

Seems like most comments on Youtube are defending Ford and accusing Kimmel of being a dick, which is true.

I like Ford as a mayor, but he has a ton of moments. Don't want Toronto to be known primarily as "that guy with the mayor who smokes crack."
