I'm glad your wife is happy with her choice Brianmw. I too got a discount through car cost canada. I ended up buying through one of the managers which was a great experience. There was no sales pitch, he didn't even ask me about extended warrany or other additional purchases.

Articsteve would you have any recommendations as to where I can purchse the locking lug nuts? I tried Canadian Tire but they don't carry lug nuts for the Mazda3.

Thanks.

P.S. Love the car!

Yes, it is dealer only for you. I regret not telling you about it because they would have thrown them in.

The service/parts department marks them up 100%. I would go back to yours sales manager and say that it completely slipped your mind at time of purchase, but you need the lockers. Tell him that you can't possibly pay retail and you need cost but will be back for service in return.

I would price them out at a Speed shop or tire, wheel dealer and even see if they could be ordered and at what price. Compare the dealers price and then make your purchase. Any savings is better in your pocket.

A pothole on the 401 cracked my Mazda 3 rim. Does anyone know if the dealers sell these rims or a place where I can by a freshly used Mazda 3 17'' rim

P.S. I think the city should pay for it :-(

Dealer can always sell you a rim. It will be a bundle though. Try a wheel refinishing shop. See what they can do for you first.
