Mazdaspeed 3: To tint, or not to tint

I am thinking of having my windows tinted, and I am in a dilemma whether I should do it or not since I live in California (up 70% front/ 0% rear light visibility legal). Having 35%/20% is illegal in California, but I see many cars in here have them anyway.  What do you think?

I helped a friend of mine to build his awesome page. The goal was to create a fast scrolling gallery from scratch. Oh boy, I had to crank up my creativity and ended up using JQuery framework. In the end, it ended up supporting iPhone Safari for the gallery. AWESOME!  Anyway, check it out.

My 2009 Mazdaspeed 3

I am really happy I have bought the 2009 Crystal White Pearl Mazdaspeed 3. After 1000 miles, I couldn’t wait but upgrade to having Mazdaspeed 3 Cold Air Intake. After the install, you can hear the “WHOOSH” out of the turbo blow off valve! WOW! The horsepower got bumped up too! Just about 25 hp!

Anyway, I took some shots in the Beverly Center Parking Lot and managed to produce these pics! I hope you like them.

Subaru Impreza WRX STI vs. Mazdaspeed3 vs. BMW 130i

I saw this video and I am shocked how much Mazdaspeed 3 can go. I guess if it weren’t for Mazdaspeed 3 starting position, it would have been the winner. The Mazdaspeed 3 has the fastest lap time of 1:10. 2 seconds faster than any car in the track. Yeah!!! Go Mazdaspeed 3!
