What are the key strengths of the Mazda?
It is still a great car and still fits into the same general genre as the wrx, Evo etc.

I was just looking at new cars and the WRX and MPS were the only thing that tickled my fancy.
The MPS strong points include:
-nicer quality interior
-they are not a common car, wanted something different.
-I prefer the FWD chassis
-all the torque/traction limiters can be turned off
-has great aftermarket support, with some big companies producing top quality parts (COBB, CORKSPORT, MRT, etc)
-stock engines are solid upto 400whp with bolt ons!
-dollar-for-dollar the MPS comes with more then cars in that price range
-it's a Mazda 3 so insurance for a 19y/o is cheap
-its a more fun car to drive, its such a lively car
-bitches love torque steer
-Etc
I know the WRX has the AWD and +200cc. But I am honestly not a fan of the direction Subaru have taken in styling. It looks good, don't get me wrong, but I just like the MPS better it's that simple.
So I may not be able to be up there with the AWD boys doesn't mean I can't teach the FWD brigade a thing or too, and maybe scared a few WRX's too
