psi365 Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 If you can live without awd and still want a hatchback I'd also throw a Mazdaspeed 3 into the mix. With snow tires you'll be just fine in the snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cvagnone Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 ^^ i would stay away from the mazdaspeed3, a very good friend of mine has the speed six and that thing is the biggest POS. trans is shot, brakes are shot, just about everything is shot and it only has 32k on it. and ive heard the same from a lot of mazdaspeed3 owners, maybe with the newest gen they addressed these issues but i would be very wery of them.

thestig Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 The Mazdaspeed 3 does fine in the snow with winters, but its not great and not near as fun and sure footed as a AWD car. Thats why I traded my in for a WRX. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
icegrill Posted October 11, 2009 Author Share Posted October 11, 2009 I'm going to pick up a 2010 A3 6spd. with sport package and 18's. It's a really fun car and feels very solid, unlike the ol' obxt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lookslikeanevo Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 I'm going to pick up a 2010 A3 6spd. with sport package and 18's. It's a really fun car and feels very solid, unlike the ol' obxt. its really not a bad choice...unless you need the room of the obxt... or a bigger wagon in general, int he handling dept, the car is fairly solid, power for s 2L with a flash it will surprise a lot of people... comfort is there(if you spend the money for it) moding it just breaks the bank...which sucks balls Current:MY05 SWP wagon - 253/290 UP, AEM CAI, Invidia Q300, tuned@yimisport OLD: MY06 GRP - 274/314 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
