Tribute to my bf's car: Mazda3 04 turbo(ed)

[Trish]

I'm pretty proud of it, even if its not mine. My bf put a lot of time on it. He first bought it in 2004, completly stock (no turbo). Than, he bought the turbo in 2006 if I'm not mistaken. Really fun to drive, pretty impressive! Good power (around 250whp) and awesome handling.

Here it is now in 2009:
