[QUOTE="strike961, post: 1063480601, member: 69647"] Clocking 1100km now. Power: Front wheel turbo i "felt" the G-force more than a stock AWD Turbo. Actual power i think any stock Evo/STi still wins hands down. It is yet more powerful compared to a stock DSG 2.0T. Gearbox: 6 speed manual with relatively "high positioned" clutch. Short shift. No problems otherwise. Chassis: Stiff, firm, but it absorps quite well. Happy with it at the moment won't think of after market suspension upgrade. Brakes: Just nice for now. Haven't try on highspeed e braking. Interior: Like it. It even has a boost meter readily in between the tacho/speedo. Sound proofing: Quite well for a performance series. Felt better than my previously sound proofed Lancer. BOSE: Quite good for stock sound system. Only problem is 1 or 2 satellite actually vibrates if the song comes with higher bass input. It probably needs a better speaker box. Overall impression: This is a balanced performance and comfort car. It is comfortable for drivers and chicks :) It is not as brutal as a STI, not as harsh as a Type R but also not as comfortable as a SL350. I think Mazda has made it in between. Some may think that its neither here nor there, but i think it suits normal driver like myself. I think it may not fit its "Mazda Performance Series" category if that means hardcore performance. I guess, Mazda 3 sports is a better description for this car. [/QUOTE]
