[s-cars] Any one drive a MazdaSpeed 6 yet ?

[JenRob]

owned a 88 mazda 323 gtx from 1990 thru 1997. one of the best cars i ever 
owned. lived in  snowy area for most of that time, awd never missed a beat, 
got me thru every time on just good all season tires. the drivetrain and 
turbo ( hitachi ) were bombproof. tranny was trouble  ( syncros)  for some 
folks, but i never had any issues. the mazda speed 6 is welcome in my 
driveway. - rob
