It all started when I was helping my girlfriend look for a
car to buy and I kept seeing a Mazda 2 everywhere we went. I kept suggesting it
to her and she said no every time. Couple of months after I decided I needed a
new ride so I set my eyes on the Mazda. Went to Gasan showroom, saw it, loved
it, bought it . . . And from the beginning of February 2012 it has been a happy
relationship.
After two days I had already started changing and installing
parts on it and haven't stopped since.
Thanks to its low weight of 970kg it handles very well in
corners, accelerates quickly and is very fuel efficient. With the power the
engine gives and its weight it can keep up and stay close to a factory Honda
civic EP sport down the drag strip which for a car of only 78bhp is good.
When the day arrives of having to change car I will stick to
Mazda and get a Mazda MX5 or a Mazda RX8.
