It's been a couple of months since the last full vehicle review on Subcompact Culture. But my latest review vehicle—the 2010 Mazdaspeed 3—is a great way to get back into the swing of things.I drove the turbocharged goodness that is the Mazdaspeed 3 at the Run to the Sun event last month and it was a hoot. My second coming of the turbo 3 has reiterated that it's a performance bargain at $23,195 + $750 in freight. My test model is $25,880 with some options. For this you get 263 hp and 280 ft./lbs. of torque, a limited slip diff, a six-speed manual trans, and a metric ton of torque steer. Better keep both hands on the wheel at wide-open throttle!
Full review to follow, so stay tuned.

She looks pretty, looking forward to your review.
Sure is pretty. In fact, I just the "Velocity Red Mica" paint is actually metallic. Looks fantastic in the sun.
Hey Andy, I've got a 2010 MS3 and I am absolutely in love with the vehicle.
One major gripe, it will grind into third gear after driving spiritedly around a corner in 1st or 2nd. Drives me nuts.
havent been on here in a while 39; but glad you've been chugging out content!
This ms3 felt less raw than the car it replaced, and a bit slower, but overall a better DD to me.
And of course, theres that big grin it has. haha.
