I understand your wishes. They are reasonable and can be satisfied in other cars. Just not this one.
It is NOT reasonable to search for 220 lb-ft of torque from THIS engine unless you're going to boost it, be that with a supercharger or turbo.
When I want that kind of kick, I get in our 2013 Mazdaspeed3. 
Good luck. |
Thanks buddy, but there is something else I haven't mention so far on this post; the fact that cars to me are something very very special, I am very enthusiast about cars, but I am not one of those NASCAR type of Enthusiastic, and maybe not even an F1 type of guy anymore; my fascination by them comes from their design, their hereditary, their technology. As you mentioned, the Mazda 3speed.... I know it is a quick car, and is a bargain comparing to other cars with similar performance, but I would never buy one, just because it does not have any appeal to me, to my eyes, as I judge its design poor, so as its built quality, and not to mention engineeringly speaking, I don't respect them, and it not just because it is a FWD. I used to love the R7s, and for sure these are the last Mazda that gain my admiration and respect.
