The BMW rocks except it's missing about 50 hp. Everthing else other than the G/3 is a compromise driveabilty wise and I just don't know what to do...I'm thinking of selling it and getting a mazda 3 now - ok now I'm thinking about keeping the G again. I thought I was in love but now it's like I'm cheating...god these Sierra's are good!

Also, on the Mazda3. That is a freak of a car. Technically, it's an econobox. But a buddy at work has one, and though it's not on the same level as the g, it's not a bad ride. Also, at the last autox, a guy in his brand-new Mazda3 ran rings around a lot of the competition. I was very surprised at how it handled. Though it might have a hard time approaching that 14.2 1/4 you have there....

The Mazda 3 is offering value transcending it's class, maybe all classes. The Mazda 3 with FI or hybrid AWD will be a sweet arrival for the automotive scene. I could get 2 3's for the price of a 330. Hell, if cars were financial instuments, there would be a major arbitrage opportunity there.
