Making your car unique from the next guy can be a challenge. You do not want to overdue it, but still make it look good. Here we have Taylor White‘s 2010 Mazdaspeed 3 from Ontario, Canada, who is a long time follower of MF, and wanted to combine his “country boy” origins into this build. Thank you to Dinesh aka MRDVisuals for capturing this.
Taylor, how did you get into cars? Was the MS3 your first car? Do you daily this?
“I first started getting into cars when I bought a PASMAG Magazine that focused on modified tuner cars. After reading a few I knew I wanted to build something of my own…”
“…My first car I started to build was a 2005 Mazda 3 GT after a couple of years I saw the Mazdaspeed 3 and knew that was my next build…”
“…I do not daily my MS3 but try to drive and enjoy it as much as possible.”
What inspired you to modify the MS3 the way you did?
“I’ve always been a country guy so I wanted to combine a country theme into my build. I built it to be different from all the other builds!”
How did you come up with doing that livery scheme?
“I always loved Camouflage so I really wanted to incorporate it into my Mazdaspeed, door panels wrapped in a red tiger camouflage. Had custom shift boot and e-brake boot made to match. Air Tank and Compressors have been wrapped in the red tiger camouflage. Pairs nicely with the candy red custom half cage…”
“…But decided to change up the camouflage colour in the engine bay as the car is a half and half design I wanted to do a stealth black camouflage in the engine bay…”
