C&D tested an Evo MR at 13.6 in the 1/4. The MS3 did 14.4. Definitely 
not faster than the Evo. A WRX tested at 14.6. A stock WRX comes with 
wimpy all season tires also. The MS3 had way more aggressive tires. I 
considered an MS3 (I have not driven one) but I'm already waiting in 
line for my next car and the MS3 is supposed to be limited to 5000 cars 
a year for the US which is 15,000 less than the car I'm waiting for. No 
thanks. It's probably already too late to get in line for an 07. There 
is currently a $2500 rebate on the Mazdaspeed6 which puts it in the same 
price range as this car (check carsdirect.com...I bought my Spec V from 
there) and it runs the 1/4 in 14 flat (C&D) and has AWD.
