The game changer!
Thread Starter
I will say that the part numbers are different (only by one letter). From the pic I have, they look the same as the 2008 cat.

I cannot wait until US dealers can order the 19" forged wheels. I don't generally spluge on mods for cars but those darker wheels will look spectacular on my VR 8. They are gonna cost an arm and a leg but I want them.

Curb weight is now being quoted at 3064 whereas Mazda previously quoted 3053 for the 2008 (man that number's gone up since release hasn't it?). Keeping in mind this is curb weight and so includes the extra gallon of gas, which is 6 pounds, that means this makeover only added 5 pounds of extra stuff from the 2008. Interesting, I was afraid the weight would go up more than that.

wonder where they shed the lbs from. Either way, pretty impressive job adding that stuff and only adding 5lbs.
I'd be curious to see how much the seats weigh.

No they listened to your DAD.
Stop trying to take all the credit Obeewan.
The RS3 is worth the upgrade for most people.
Unfortunately I do not like any of the exterior changes.
I'd still like to know how the expect more performance with the 4:77 and better gas milage

Huge hole is huge
I feel bad, since I absolutely love the exterior changes. Pretty much, everything they did to the 09 is what I wish I had. In all reality, it doesn't matter, as I <3 mine. *hugs*
