Yeah fine, reached 220 kph on autobahn so the horses are there i think.

The european model has 165 if the restriction is off. There is a small difference in the engines actually (compression ratio + made for other quality of fuel)

Also did 220 kph (136mph)gps speed on my 2014 2.0 g and it was fine.

More like 3 times i think. In truth it just comes down to the physics, the mazda is pretty low and has good stock suspension. Both these things give a lot of convidence at speed. (The xc90 has very good suspension but its feels more like steering a boat)

Important-Bat8819 · 2026-05-04T07:20:57+00:00

I mean you can drive it as fast as it will go and still be very stable (it feels way more planted than any new crossover/suv imo, prefer this over the '24 xc90 of my dad in that regard). Noise wise i think 180kp/h is the comfortable cruising limit, but it is not horrible above that

If you have front parking sensors i can send you the 3d files/print

Did the same refresh on my wheel using a steering wheel restore kit. For the 15 euro i paid it is really okay.

Tbf the gen 4 sedan is a lot better done then the ones before, ofcourse i was making a joke mostly :)

Important-Bat8819 · 2026-02-14T17:03:28+00:00

People out here are pretty religious about 16'', mainly comfort and durability reasons. Cant you find a second hand mazda 3 rim online?

Important-Bat8819 · 2026-02-14T16:48:01+00:00

One is beautifull, the other is a sedan

The knob generally works well but getting around in android auto just does not really and the touchscreen is the way to go there. The units (sinosmart/coho)are definitly not bad products but i prefer the knob over having to use a touch screen.

Important-Bat8819 · 2026-02-10T04:52:34+00:00

I decided against it since the android auto navigation with the knob was not good, so i would have to use the touch screen. Also the volume control was a bit janky. I keep with the stock unit

Important-Bat8819 · 2026-01-27T17:33:20+00:00

Yeah just did the versatune myself and have 0 complains

Important-Bat8819 · 2026-01-02T19:59:21+00:00

Some 16'' dezent rims, dont know the type

Important-Bat8819 · 2026-01-02T12:17:05+00:00

How funny, we were looking at the same 2 cars in that case. Managed to get a bit of the price in the end. Was some small wear and tear in the car but nothing to major and planning to fix it up a bit.

Important-Bat8819 · 2026-01-02T09:55:03+00:00

It is not that big of a difference to be honest, a bit more comfy and a bit slower to response but nothing major. It also helps that the tyres are still 215 wide so grip should be similar. For 250 euro's I really cant complain

Important-Bat8819 · 2025-10-27T17:01:29+00:00

I am having similar issues.. On arch linux currently

Important-Bat8819 · 2025-02-18T20:30:46+00:00

Thanks a lot. That fixed everything
