E. Tinker’s Black Mica 2010 Mazdaspeed3 Picture Thread - One of the most popular picture threads in our M3R Rides, Meets and Pics forum, E. Tinker’s black 2010 Mazdaspeed3 is one of the finest we’ve seen yet.

From the thread:

I’ve already taken the liberty of painting the brake calipers red and have tinted the windows as well. I’ve also added an aftermarket security system and upgraded the audio system to something more suited to a vehicle with the Speed’s performance capabilities.
