The other forums

[bluntman]

Now that our community has grown so much in a little less than a year\'s time, do you still find yourself frequenting the other Mazda3 (American) forums as often as before TM3 was up and running?

Personally, I find myself simply scanning through new posts and replies but I don\'t reply as often as before. I like the fact that information contained in this forum is local and I don\'t have to figure out an exchange rates or convert miles to kilometers in my head. And the level of grammar is so much better here too!

Boy does that make me seem old or what! :sarc

Slow day at work Bluntman? :D

When I first started looking for info on the 3, I found a mazda board at mazdaiii.com. I asked a question about the 3 and one of the mods (Goldwing2000) shot my thread down without giving me a chance to even elaborate on my questions. I got pissed off there pretty quickly. (I only go there because I can use them to host some of my pics withought having to mail them to different computers or carry a cd or thumbdrive). ;)

I found the Mazda 3 forums and saw a link in the Canada section about this place right away. I signed up here and then when the Mazda 3 forums were having difficulties a while back Dinu01 helped me get an account there.

The only place I really post is here because I never took the time to learn what a 3i or a 3s is. :p Being able to get info on local shops and deals and talking to a bunch of countrymen was the clincher.

totally agree with all of you

M3F is wayy too big and seems like too many ppl are contributing all over - hard to keep up and not too well organized..

msprotege.com - visit 1-3x a week to see what\'s on the states side but they do seem more arrogant and talk locat (US) deals - which is ok b/c i\'ll be going there 1ce in a while so it\'s nice to knwo where to order from (my dad lives in the states) so i can bring an intake or something much cheaper ;)

but by far the best and most frequesnted is TM3 - i always wonder.. damn anyone replied yet? new members? new mods? where can we get it cheapest in Tdot.. lol.. i\'m a cheap ass ;) heh so if you don\'t include price location and relative price/deal.. u\'ll prolly hear from me :D cuz i\'m saving all my dough for the 3 and some mods :D

Local forums are always good and better than the American/International ones.

I only go to Mazda3 Forums if I need info. I rarely post there.

yep, sometime I read many posts arguing different between US and Canadian models, price and options, you feel heat.

also many aftermarket products, mod parts are only available in US, even if they ship to Canada, huge different in price.
