Second-generation Mazdaspeed3 is a weekend race-car in disguise
Sensible, too
Despite its intentions, the Speed3 is surprisingly sensible and discreet. It’s got decent seating space, good visibility and a relatively generous cargo hold. Transporting of camping gear, dog kennels or a couple of buddies should pose no problem.

Best of all, it doesn’t blow the whistle on its go-fast capabilities much louder than a hood scoop, some upgraded wheels and a larger rear hatch spoiler.

The exhaust barely even makes a peep-- meaning the Speed3 will easily slip through traffic unnoticed. For more sound effects, consider adding down-pipe, cat-back and muffler upgrades to taste. Otherwise, unwanted attention from your local police force should be no issue if you drive like an adult.

Of course, the Speed3 will lay stripes through an entire intersection with no second thought, if you’re so inclined. After all, owning a little wagon doesn’t mean you can’t have a little fun.
