Hello all. First post. Right now I am looking at 370zs hoping to buy one eventually. I have a question, however. Some may know that if you want to mod a mazda3, it almost HAS to be a Mazda Speed3, not just a normal Mazda 3. Does this rule apply for 370zs? For instance, is it better to mod a 370 touring with the sport package over a non-touring with no sport? Thanks.

No the differences are minimal.

if you are planning on getting aftermarket wheels, brakes, suspensions, wings, sound systems, etc, get a base. i dont think base has syncRev tho.. if u want it to be nice to start with, get touring+sport.. performance wise they are all the same pretty much.

Even the base AT7 has the revsync...it standard on all automatics. Otherwise I agree buy a base it's cheaper and then you have more money for mods.

I know all 7AT have it, but base 6MT doesnt have syncRev. Only Sport.
