Hey everyone. I am looking to get a new car. I was thinking about the Mazda3 hatch. I looked at one the other day, and I saw something I didnt like. They come with the radio thats like, integrated into the dash. Does anyone out there know of a kit, or bracket that can fix that problem? I am looking for a hatch back for acoustic reasons. Its either a Mazda3, or a Civic Si (please dont tell me i have to get the honda, i despise honda), BUT, i want a hatch back.

lmao. gremlin. thats great. actually there is a guy just down the street from me with one for sale. Anyhow, im not too fond of the styling on the scions. I completely forgot though, one of my faves, the Golf. Im going for a hatch so my subs will sound louder. anyone out there have a hatch? If i cant find one, im just gonna buy my friends blazer off of him. those slam.

I'm no GM fan, but an SUV makes a good platform for a sound system. And I'd even buy a chevy over a rice burner.

how about a gti? german cars are nice if you like speed, style and overall durability. forget about the honda junk that everyone and theyre brother puts a muffler, intake and some stickers on and says its fast. if i had to choose go with the mazda. the 323 is a decent car. my friend jim had one and used to drift with it, run it into guardrails and sideswipe sh*t with it. its got over 190,000 on it and its still going!

Yea, i love V-dubs. i forgot to add that to the list. I sat down and made a list of the possible car choices. here it goes

PT Cruiser, Volkswagen Golf, Blazer, older Civic Hatch (forgot the si, i aint paying 20k for that nasty thing), Mazda3, or impreza hatch.

I'm not going to upgrade my subs, i like what i have. I just want a new car, for several reasons, a new amp, and im set. thanks.
