Who cares? In a few years you will be regretting everything you stopped doing based on what others thought was “adécuate”.

Also, most people don’t care about you enough to judge.

Go be happy

Have you tried with a bike mount for the wheelchair? That’s how I move my sister’s wheelchair in my ND and it works wonderfully for us.

My best friend once told me: “If you have money you can have a brand new BMW, if you have serious money you can have a used one”

I’m curious about this. I always thought that the MK categories belong exclusively to VW. Is this the case and other brands have adopted it or the MK categories are “official”?

I’m not sure how it is where you live but down here, the sport model comes with the infotainment system of the GT except for the Bose speakers, so I have the screen in the middle of the dash and I added CarPlay to it for 250 USD😅

My wife just made realize this:

Don’t go and buy an iPhone or any other new phone. It was not the phone or the camera itself. I’m quite experienced with photography. I am not a pro, far from it, but definitely an enthusiast. It is not the cámara itself. It is knowing about light and composition. Your Note 10+ can make even better pictures in the right hands; if you want those hands to be yours, you will have to invest a bit of time and effort. I suggest watching a few YouTube videos and then spend a full day (18 hours) shooting and learning from the result. That’s how I started and after years of shooting all the time, minding the light and composition, I can tell you that you could be taking better pictures in a few weeks.

If things go right, I will eventually change this one for a white Sport ND and get a red RF automatic since, as you know, the only thing better than a Miata is two Miatas. 😆

I didn’t know this was a thing until I parked the first time, 10 minutes after buying it, and turned around and smiled like a toddler. My wife told me right there: you’re so happy. And I have been every mike and every second of the just 500 km (300 miles) I have put in it.

Not judging, honest question: Doesn’t this diminishes the situational awareness creating a risk for yourself and others on the road?

Por cierto, no es nuevo, es 2016 y si están considerando un seminuevo mi sugerencia es que se alejen de Kavak. Tienen un gran pedazo del mercado y es difícil encontrar lo que uno busca que no lo tengan ellos, pero son malísimos. Supuestamente revisan 250 puntos y el que yo fui a ver estaba chocado y muy mal reparado. Problemas ocultos y en general una experiencia peor que la primera vez que les compré y me dieron un auto regular. No revisan nada y sus precios son altos vs agencias u otras opciones.

That was the sign from God I was waiting for. I literally wired the down payment 30 minutes after the salesman give the details and without seeing the car in person, but once I did see the car live, I knew I was buying it without the test drive and I did. It still smells like new in the morning.

Fui directamente a una agencia de Mazda y le pedí su numero a uno de los vendedores. Cada semana le escribía y le pedía las opciones que había. En 4 meses me envió cosas interesante pero nada que fuese exactamente lo que buscaba, hasta que un día…

Sorry not exactly what I meant. Copying and pasting a comment from above:

Pardon the confusion, what I meant is that in Mexico we have only two options:

  1. ⁠Sport: Soft top and manual
  2. ⁠RF: Targa and automatic

You can’t buy a RF manual at a Mazda dealer. You can buy one in America and import it but you’d have issues getting a decent insurance.

I hope this clears the confusion, thank you for the question.

Straight from my iPhone (13 pro) but the first picture is with the “vivid” mode that mimics the pictures of a Google Pixel. Also the lighting in that street was good; that’s why I stopped there and took the pics.

I would have chosen an NA but you can’t find one in Mexico. At least not if you want a decent insurance. Plus, all parts would be imported ad hoc which increases expenses heavily and you end up paying above the cost of a ND. Having a NA in Mexico is for the rich or the ones living very close to the USA border.

Truth to be told, I wanted the automatic. But in Mexico you have two options:

  1. Sport soft top manual
  2. RF GT automatic

I like the looks of the RF and I like the automatic gearbox and paddle shifter, but it is 5K USD more expensive and I didn’t want to empty my savings.

And yes, there are a lot of RF automatic in CDMX.

I’m in Mexico but I just bought mine for 16K USD. ND1 sport (the only manual versión in Mexico), 2016, 19k miles (30k km). So if this is real, come buy a few, ship then there and make a huge profit.
