Italian beef and exhaust! Of course, if I have enough italian beef I might not need a cat back to change my exhaust note...

Seriously, thanks to everyone coming out to help me shop!

This Just In

Mazda will be offering and factory iPod adapter as an accessory. Details are slim right now. Rosenthal Mazda has a listing for it, and I e-mailed them, but they have no details regarding price or fitment yet. Mazdanews.com does have blurb about it. 23, 100 Yen is about $225, but that is installed with Japanese tax, which is high like VAT in England. If I was to guess, maybe around $150-175?

I know nothing. The Rosenthal guy said he knew nothing and he, "checks everyday." It comes out later this month in Japan, so maybe we'll see it stateside in September or October.

Along with "I'm an idiot", you used to use that line a lot. I guess in the past year you have gotten smarter.

Actually, I think it is the optional Mazdaspeed Security System or a periscope for seeing over SUV's. I haven't figured which.

Thanks again for all the test rides at the last meet!
