TOP 4 WORST DEALER EXPERIANCES PLUS DAMAGE AND CAR COVERED IN DIRT AND ALL KINDS OF ****!!!!!
1. EVANSTON AUTOBARHN MAZDA - Damaged wheel, scuff fender, changed radio stations.
2. SCHAUMBURG MAZDA - Bad customer service treated me like ***.
3. JACOB TWINS MAZDA - Damaged wheel again, dirtied the interior, and very rude.
4. ROTO MAZDA - Damaged door plastic seal, very rude, dirtied the interior heavily, beach sand like inside driver and passenfer side. Worst dealers to go to so far!!!
I think I'll be taking mine in pretty soon for the new starter and plugs. The one I normally go I have nothing but good things to say about them

Someone on here recommended the Villa Park Mazda dealer. I have had decent service at Biggers as well.

So this kind of irritated me today...

I was driving down Ogden Ave. coming up to a stoplight and I saw in my rearview an older RX-7. I had my windows down and I could see that he had his down. When he pulled up he stopped short of our windows lining up. When the light turned green I took off slow and he passed me with out even looking in my direction. I was like "Dude, c'mon. Where's the rotary love?!"

When I had my Z I always got a waive/acknowledgement from any other Z, 240, 300, or 350.

Kinda disappointed.

They even put all my coins in a bag for me when they had to fix something near it. once, I also stupidly left 500 in the glove compartment once, and it was still there.

also, i never see any of you guys really. im the black with ings front and ms stuff

Then when I open my gas cap a HUGE spider jumps out but gos back in there I tried getting it out, so I blew air at it and it curled up and fell out. Following a HUGE Bumble Bee attacked me Im jumpin around crazy trying to dodge the bugs at the Shell.

SCCA Autocross Event #1

Hey all,

Attached are a couple of pics from the autocross event a couple of weeks ago. It was just me and a silver 8 whose name I can no longer remember. If he reads this, PM me as I have a pic of you racing too.

Blue, did you get any pictures from RA to share. Maybe one that shows a lot of gravel in the grill!
