Picked up this 2017 sweetheart with only 4900 miles on her. Took her straight out to get painted... today she’s home after the first crazy fun drive through the foothills. Total blast. I have named her: Yoshimoto

This looks amazing. I wish Mazda would offer some more interesting colors on the ND from the factory.

Love the color! In this light it looks almost exactly like the 3M gloss liquid copper wrap I just used on my build. Could be an option if say you wanted to wrap unpaintable parts (say in th interior) to match.

I love the color! Most people don’t usually put new paint on a new car and I applaud it

i kinda lied.. it’s a dip. Autoflex. Before I commit I figure give this a go

I lied it’s a dip... but I sure as hell will go full on paint with this color in a few years. Seriously considering handing her over to Flying Miata for the Vette engine treatment. Why settle for 155 H P when you can have 525? Poppa got a promotion

Nice. My brother in law bought a new RF and loved it for a few months, before oversteering up a curb and into a tree.
I’m sure this experience will fare better.

It’s crazy easy to swing the tail out while simultaneously feeling under complete control. Gotta watch myself or I’ll end up over confident

The famous 350z color! Looks incredible

Yeah overconfidence was and is my BIL’s downfall. He’s 20 and thinks he’s the smartest, most capable, most competent human being there ever was.
Basically, he’s a huge prick.

I mean why not? Just make sure you’ve got a good life insurance policy

Today I was an obnoxious tailgater...... Get outa my way!!! Must take hairpin turns faster. I sorta of want to get up super early to beat the slow pokes to the fun roads... There must be a few good websites pointing out good places to drive around here that don’t attract the crowds. So many new things to discover

Getting up early is the way to do it. Right at dawn, everything is beautiful, the air is great. And on a weekend morning, traffic will be at an all time low.

Gotta stop staring at her and go to bed then... shit

Don’t paint it unless it needs it.
It’s not worth it.

How about an LTG ecotec, lighter, smaller, and made to fit LS camaros.

The only thing with heading out to the foothills early is the amount of bicyclists up in the morning as well. Of course since there shouldn’t be much car traffic it shouldn’t be too much of an issue.
That’s a beautiful orange, is the same as Mazda’s metallic orange from several years ago?

Where did you the autoflex applied? It looks amazing and I have been considering a paint job...

Getting up early is the way to do it just watch for cyclists especially around lookout mountain on sundays. If you need more road suggestions thought there’s plenty of us here that can help

I’m in Denver... place is 5280 dip . For this sized car, normal dip = ~$750
Autoflex = ~$2100

Lookout is what I did last night -after the cyclists were all going down I was going up...I live in Highlands so it’s pretty much a straight shot up 32nd, jog through golden and climb. So many adventures to come!

Not familiar with Mazda’s history there.. Technically this is “copper” which I see as Orange leaning towards red, with sparkle flake

Mt Evans is one of my favs, coal/clear/deer creek canyons are all fun too, after lookout I liked to come back down the backside on 40, it’s fast sweeping curves instead of the hairpins going up and you also have the Cabrini shrine if you want a little taste of gravel. And if you have a few hours Loveland pass is incredible, and definitely do Rocky Mountain national park, we went at night once and didn’t even have to pay and it was absolutely incredible stargazing, just look out for moose lol there was one in the road and it’s terrifying in a Miata with the top down. And then you can come back through Estes Park into boulder from there. I moved back to Chicago last year and miss it so much, so I’m projecting all my favorite adventures lol. Never got to do the million dollar highway, that’s a full day trip and couldn’t get the wife onboard after she saw pics online.

All things I have done or plan to do. I once drove independence pass and swore I would return... feeling like it’s time!
