I'm not really new, just haven't formally introduced myself.

I've already posted in the Buying a Mazda section as my first post...

Things have changed since then so I will post here... ahaha.

I'm Matt, currently studying at Carleton University up in Ottawa, but I am originally from Calgary.

I got a deal done with Jeff from MoT over the phone on a 2008.5 Stormy Blue Mazda 3 GS around mid August and am hoping to pick it up a week or 2 from now since I have to switch my license over and everything.

I found this forum while doing research on Potential Cars (I was looking at Lancer, Corolla, Civic, 3 and Protege) and this forum pretty much made up my mind on getting the 3.

Thanks for all the Useful Information here, keep it up!

P.S. Of course, I will post pics of the ride when I get it. (Should just be a week or 2 from now)

Congrats! the stormy blue looks pretty sweet.

[condor888000]

Congrats man!

Carleton eh, I'm there myself, if you see a dark grey 3 in lot 7 odds are its mine. Check out Ottawamazda.ca if you're up that way, good group of guys.

Will do, I don't park my car at school, but I may drive to pick up my roommates when they need to... I don't see too many Stormy Blue 3 on campus... so odds are if you see that with the Mazda of Toronto plate cover... it's probably mine :P

[condor888000]

Can't blame you. Not too expensive, but lots are CROWDED. Not looking forward to snow at all.

[STeeLy]

Crowded Lots I've noticed... living on rez first year (my third year there now), I've noticed the lots being packed.
