It’s a bit embarrassing but needless to say I just want people to realize just how passionate I really am and just how much I truly care about my love for the car world.
I used a 10 megapixel digital camera, duct tape to keep the camera relatively still (you can hear the tape try to hold the camera during accelerations haha!!) and no script. Just a night with a mazdaspeed3 and my love for cars.
So listen up!! If any amateurs out there love to film and make car videos call me!! I think with a bit of script and practice it would be a fun little adventure! Enjoy my passion, and I really appreciate the views. I know it’s kinda lame but so what.
Just for some info on the Mazdaspeed 3, their reliability and resale values are fantastic! Plus it’s a really easy car to squeeze out a bit more power and hence major torque steer to follow. Values vary from 18000-25000 for good examples depending on mileage. Would I buy this for under 20000$? I think so, if I needed some good cargo space and have a fair bit of fun factor along with it. With all honesty I would rather the Subaru WRX for year round usage and performance or a civic SI assuming a climate without snow. I know the SI is not statistically fast, but the “soul” aka it’s motor and tranny are to die for (avoid the 2.4L, Lacks the high revving Honda nature)

Would love to read a review of the 2014 Cayenne turbo S
I would truly love to test one out! They are quite the capable machine, more like a 2 tonne boat on wheels that drives better on a race circuit than most track day toys and at the same time be a soccer mom vehicle and grocery getter. Here is a review from the guys at fifth gear for a 2010 (still a second GEN) cayenne turbo, which I truly believe is only a tiniest bit less involving and exciting than the turbo S would be.
cool yo!
I have liked Mazda ever since a 626 I had from new. Had a lot of fun in it on long trips.
Mazda 626 great car back in it’s time! They always had a sense of style and were always a fun car to drive! The next few years Mazda has a great product line to finally compete with fellow Japanese and Domestic brands once again!
Thanks for the follow. Will follow back!
Much appreciated!
Keep blogging!
You happen to watch any F1?
there’s nothing embarassing! Us, for one, love bikes! Do continuously check out our columns and like us on our facebook page http://www.facebook.com/thecommoners.net 🙂
Good vid. I will sub to your YT channel within the next 24 hours. Yes, I am a photographer but I was a former teacher so I do math vids on YT–lol. Thnx for subscribing to my blog here! Oh, and I am also a car enthusiast. In fact I help people buy cars for a fee. I do all the negotiating. Just saved someone $5700 off the sticker of a 2014 A4 yesterday.
Have you watched the Top Gear episode staring the Mazdaspeed 3?
I don’t think I have actually, I will see if they have one of youtube I can check out. I am unsure whether or not they actually have reviewed it on top gear……hmmmmm…I don’t know something!! Oh geeeez
Thank you for the follow. I have done the same
Scintillating world this!. Thanks for the follow. Following you now. 🙂

What did you think of my first rap, Trendz?
Hey man! Thanks for the follow!
I read the rap and it’s pretty good! It’s a bit out of my realm however I think they are words well spoken. Keep up the passion!
Live to drive….and maybe listen to some rap in the cabin.
Thank you for following imaginenewdesigns. I enjoyed watching your automotive video review. Now I know that car has too much power for me! 🙂 Happy Holidays!
Thanks for the comment! Actually that car is a great car and not even too powerful when it comes to the overall performance that virtually all modern day cars possess. Come this May/June I will be doing an amazing Video review of my 911 GT3……let’s just say it’s not factory, it’s a 996 variant and if I need to translate that means it’s a widowmaker of a car 🙂

There’s more to performance cars than just numbers. The last time I found torque steer fun was back in the early 80s driving a Renault 30TX. After a while it became tiresome. I’m no VW fan, but the Golf mentioned in your post is the more complete car, if I were to have a Mazda make mine an early RX3 or RX4 – they offered something the europeans lacked – visual flair, and a wankel engine.
Thanks for following my blog. I’m following yours as well. What a great idea for a blog! I’ll be sure to let my boyfriend know about your blog. 🙂
Thank you so much for following me as well! Definitely spread the word and I would love to have your BF check this out! Once I gain a hugh following I have several posts planned 🙂

We love our Speed 3. We just got a Mazda RX8. Not as fast as the Speed 3, but fast enough and a lot of fun to drive.
Biggest RX-8 complaint always has and always will be it’s straight line performance but nobody could ever doubt it’s capabilities on a track. Truly something special.
I drove the Speed 3 the other day after only driving the RX8 for a couple of weeks. The first thing I noticed is the RX8 has a little more stretch room for my long legs, but the biggest difference, besides the speed, is that the RX8 is really solid and more responsive than the Speed 3. I truly love driving the RX8.
Hi Tom, good to meet you, and I sure as heck don’t know how you found my blog, but thanks a bunch for visiting! I currently own a 96 Chev Impala and don’t ever want to let it go. But I fear it may be time to put it under wraps just to save. Then again, drive ‘er into the ground till it dies altogether, right? I really want another VW bug convertible – seriously – if you can stop snickering, what’s your take on these?
haha!!! That’s a great comment 🙂
I think you should drive the car a little while longer but if it’s costing you over 1000-1500$ year to maintain I think it may be time to seriously consider your desire for a bug 🙂 Although I may not be a fan of the “quirky” car segment, the bug, mini cooper, kia soul, honda fit, etc quirky cars definitely have something about them that draws a crowd !!
I’d say go for it and if you want me to help find a few in your area at the best price and look at certain things to look for when buying a big, I would love to help!

Great review tcomegna!
Reblogged this on Desperate Car Wives and commented:
I love this video review of the Mazda 3 by Tom Comegna… There’s a lot to be said for real car reviews done by real people!
Thank you so much for this! I can’t wait until the spring when I will be doing a review on my 996 GT3 which I really look forward to doing! Short and sweet and in the day light……and very loud noises coming from the heavily tuned motor…..or more like a symphonic orchestra for gear heads 🙂
Top Gear Canada…..come on now people….or at least motoring TV….come on give me an interview guys!!
Thank you for following!
Love your enthusiasm. It’s almost contagious.
Thank you so very much for that comment! That’s my goal plain and simple to make my passion reach all viewers period.
