Thanks! I came up with it all on my own, too. And I'm not creative normally, so I was proud.

Congrats! It’s so fun shaping little people’s minds..

My little ones are hardcore aircooled fans, plus they can pick out Land Cruisers from a mile away.. It’s like driving around with 360 degree car spotting vision!

No Miata, no care. These people aren't true fans.

Please tell me you plan to bring your child home in the E30.

Congrats! Kids are awesome and so are mazdas. My daughter came home in one.

Congrats on the addition ! Let me give you a little heads up. I’m a big Audi guy. I have an a4 and an s4. Somehow though my son’s favorite car is a Corvette followed by a Camaro then Audi S4 is his third favorite. No matter how hard you try they somehow get their own ideas.

congrats! this is awesome especially with that little mazda thing whatever it's called again

It started out as a Little Tikes Cozy Coupe. We got it for free from my wife’s aunt (it belonged to my wife’s little cousin who has since outgrown it). So, I got it, spray painted it Navy Blue, and hot-glued a Mazda badge from a wrecked eBay Mazda3 on the front of it. :-)

GE90man > mazda616
06/30/2016 at 22:21

that's awesome and really cute!

petebmwm > mazda616

My wife just went to her second, its still going to be a while before we find out!

petebmwm > E90M3
06/30/2016 at 22:54

Nah, to much salt on the road, it will come home in a manual trans x5!

I guess that’s an acceptable alternative.

Congrats on your future Honda fan! Hehe....

I like Hondas. The new Civic is awesome. As long as he/she doesn't rice out an old junky Civic or Del Sol, we'll be okay.

mazda616 > Kurt Bradley
07/01/2016 at 08:50

We are true fans. We have had three Mazdas and we bought the volume models that give Mazda the cash to develop and sell the Miata. You're welcome.

07/01/2016 at 08:51

Thanks! Best part is, once the kid is old enough, they can actually play with the car. It needs a new steering wheel, though.

mazda616 > Tom McParland
07/01/2016 at 08:52

Thank you! We have been married four years and this will be our first. I'm quite nervous in my capability to be a good father since my own father wasn't around. But, I'm praying and hoping all will go well.

mazda616 > Logansteno: Bought a VW?
07/01/2016 at 08:53

Thank you! You’ll see the announcement on Facebook soon. After this weekend, probably.

07/01/2016 at 08:53

I was very sentimental towards my previous Mazda (a Mazda3), since my wife was sitting in it when I proposed to her. So, I have to do something equally sentimental with my new Mazda, so I figure I'll bring the kid home in it. Yay family sedan.

Kurt Bradley > mazda616
07/01/2016 at 08:59

I stand by my statement. :)

mazda616 > Kurt Bradley
07/01/2016 at 09:02

Ha! And I stand by mine. :-)

In all reality, I’d love an MX-5 but it just isn’t practical for us. If I had the income for a third car or a “fun” car, I'd get one.

64Mali > mazda616
07/01/2016 at 09:09

I have owned 6 Mazdas. 3 are current 3 are previous. (3 mazda 6s, 2 mazda 3, 1 mazda cx9) I might have a problem.

Tom McParland > mazda616
07/01/2016 at 09:24

You will be fine...if you are nervous about being a good dad, that means you will be a good dad. We all go through it. Lot’s of dads here on Oppo, so don’t be shy about reaching out for advice even if it’s silly stuff.

mazda616 > 64Mali
07/01/2016 at 10:08

It’s a good problem!

My first Mazda was my ‘08 Mazda3 S Touring hatch, bought in August 2009. Drove it until October 2015, when I got my 2016 6 Touring. My wife’s CX-5 is a 2013 (first model year) and we got it in December 2012. So, I personally have had two and as a family, we’ve had 3.

All have been and still are great cars.

Congrats on your future....Fiat fan, then?

My second is about 2 months from landing, so I share in your particular joy.

And that playschool car you did up is AWESOME.

Thank you! I am already shopping for a cover to go under the future car seat so it doesn't poke and fold the upholstery in my 6. Ha

My first brand new car was a 2007 Mazda 6s SVE, it got totaled in a flash flood, it was replaced by a 2007 Mazda 3s. Gave the 3 to my Mother in law( Still going) and bought a friends 2005 Mazda 6s GT (5speed). Bought the wife a 2008 CX-9 touring. The 05 6 died. Replaced the CX-9 with a 2016 6 Touring. And I got a 2016 3i Touring (which with 1400 miles on it is in the body shop cause my neighbor Tboned me)

I’m not sure about that model. I have a similar looking model with a high roll over probability. I keep telling myself it’s driver error, but it may just be top heavy and prone to roll over.
