    Yes, Quebec plated - no front plates required. Yet the dealership already drilled holes in the front bumper for a bracket... So I had to put something on there.

    Wheels: 19x8 +35 TSW Nurburgrings in Flat Bronze

    Tires: 215/35/19 Hankook Ventus V12

    Suspension: BC BR RA-Spec Coilovers, Eibach/SPC Rear Camber Arms - alignment/camber within OEM threshold. Dampers set to +4 (from full soft) all around. Rear fenders lightly rolled, no rubbing, no scraping and great ride quality!

    Agreed. There's a Speed3 rolling around my area that's slammed with 18x10.5 wheels, gonna try to either get pics of it or get him to come on here, looks dope.

    Whats the Skyactiv bit about it?

    Is it a 2.3 Turbo as per the older MZ3?

    I work for Mazda, but here in the UK.. We've just got the CX5, but thats the only Skyactiv we've had so far.

    in other words, not terrible performance (155hp/145tq) with amazing fuel mileage (minimum 850km a tank).
