Post by: weaselnoze on May 01, 2007, 05:26:09 PM
went on a shoot tonite and i was so excited i had to share with you one foto.  C&C?

first time i ever used a flash filter.  it was a warm filter that gave the setting sun reflection effect.  what do u think?

Very nice.   :thumb:

I like how the car stands out from the background.  It makes it obvious what the photo is about.

ya sur bout that? cuz my cousin johnny said he saw one from his horse the othur day.



I love mazda's, I was trying to convince the ol' lady to get a speed a few months back. But she kept using words like "cheaper, more room, pets, remember..." bla bla bla ... I ate it up, and somehow we ended up with a Hyundai Tucson... Oh well, maybe my next life...

At least I still have MmmMyyy Presscciouuss GS  :thumb:


Good work on the pics btw - I'm no photographer, they look like genuine promo shots...

Dude, why you gotta post a white speed, Alpha?  That is in the top two for my next bike.

I spanked a coworkers Mazdaspeed 3 the other day in my Mustang.

Because there is one sitting in my local Triumph dealer and it calls to me every time I drive by.

I don't feel too bad though, I'm pretty close to getting a summer job at a place that sells these:

and sponsors this guy:

Somehow, I think I'll survive.

Very pretty car.  I really like the stealth of it.  What's the clutch like in daily driving?  I remember test-driving one and it being pretty sharp.

I love the Speed Triple but I also love the 675.  Which is why I'm obsessively waiting for news on the Street Triple, which will be the naked 675.  The official announcement is supposed to be in July, so I hear.

Great pics.

If I had a few more bucks to spend on a new car, I'd strongly consider the Mazdaspeed 3, five door GT.  The new turbo'd GT 3 has 263 hp.   Too much fun.

the clutch is very tricky to get used to. super sensitive.  i tihnk its a 'stage 2' or whatever. 

the speed3 is cool but no sunroof option!!

So overall how do you like the Mazdaspeed 6 as a daily driver?  I am thinking about getting one after I swap my Impreza.

Post by: nightrider on May 02, 2007, 03:36:20 PM
awesome car! also re pics, the light, tone, and locations are rad.

re composition, the car is a little at odds with the wall in the top one, and the angle is a little much on the lower. Dont hate me... u asked.

thanks for the compliments and suggestions. im always open to positive criticism. 

just to clarify, this sadly is not my car.  its a friend of mines.  god i wish i could afford a speed. i'd go w/ the 3 tho. its cooler.   my friend likes it as a daily driver however i think it feels huge when i drive it.  its great for highway. i mean superb.  and of course the clutch takes getting used to. really stiff and very sensitive.  i drive a beat ass civic until maybe summer time i'll get my mz3.

MS3 is significantly better than the MS6, mostly due to weight and "largeness".  The MS3 does have quite a bit of torque steer though, despite their torque limiting in 1st and 2nd gears.  But still, great cars, both of them.  The chassis on my gf's 3 is fantastic, and even the regular 4-banger is fun to rev.

I like the exposure in the last one.  Composition is interesting too.  7.5mm?

Nice "border" as well.  It serves a purpose but doesn't detract from the image.   :thumb:
