    Hello brothah, the King....RB is tame, a bit deeper toned, not obnoxious nor loud, won't trigger alarms, but you'll really know it's there. My hobo phone won't do it justice, sadly, brah.

    Thanks, bro travajante! I like that it is not that loud, I do not want to wake up the sleeping community along my Tanayburgring route, they might not allow me to have fun there again, and that would mean the end of the world for me. =)

    If you want a bit of "domestication", get one thats JASMA-certified (note not JASMA-brand! There is no such thing as a JASMA brand). Sounds almost stock at low rpms, but opens up at the higher end. Perfect for trolling around the subdivision at night, but real meaty when you open up.

    FGK, Apexi, Tanabe, HKS, etc. As long as it has a JASMA-certified plate and number.

    For a sub US$500 axle back, that may be too much, sir.

    I remember hearing Php35k indent order, landed price....2-3month wait. The HKS was ridiculous at twice that!
    Might as well have it shipped in yourself, King brah.
    Atoy customizes for our 3s using universal fit Borla Pro XS, I believe at much less than the RB w/o shipping. You might wanna look into that, brah?

    Bad news... My 10k discount was removed and replaced by 3m nomad mattings + 1 more car cover. Medyo unexpected lang.

    Too high demand, but no supply.

    They gave you cash discount and took it back? Both acts are surprising, san dealership ito? Cash payment ka i assume? Wonder why they offered cash discounts in the first place? Alam ko sa 2 meron so called pre order less 10k from srp, but sa 3 didnt know about this. Another promo?

    Hassle yan, a deal is a deal, hope its on paper yun final na babayaran mo, i remember sa reservation ng unit ko the final agreed price is stated in the form.

    Whats the official reason for them not giving anymore?

    Hi Sir, to share with you my story:

    This is through bank P.O.. Our agreement happened verbally during June. I asked for a discount and the SA told me he can give me 10k discount. I paid 5k reservation fee for sedan variant on July 10, there wasn't any final agreed price stated in the form. I didn't even know pwede un.

    Around 3rd week of August, my SA informed me that there's a hatchback. I thought of it for 2 days, but when I gave my Go-signal, the car's gone already. Haha! So we changed my reservation to hatchback. Funny thing is just after a day when I changed my mind, a sedan variant came. But I passed. I'm fixed with the hatchback now. hehe.

    This particular unit is actually allocated to another already. My SA argued with his boss/other SA to give this only unit to me since I paid reservation during July and the other reservation was only paid recently during September. He won, I even confirmed our deal, and he acknowledged everything.

    He called me about the discount yesterday. His manager doesn't have any knowledge about our deal since yesterday. When he told him, ang sabi raw: "pinag-aagawan na nga ang unit bakit pa magdidiscount." and that they could just give it to the others who will pay for the full amount.

    Ayun. I understand the situation naman. SA just offered me full windshield, 3m nomad, and another car cover on his account daw. But I really want the cash discount. End of the story is he was able to convince his boss to give 5k discount. Okay na rin. Even without the discount, I'd still buy this beauty! Hahaha!

    Thanks for sharing your story, terrible agent and manager with how he replied if its true. Most probably their M.O.

    Would have talked to higher ups about this as this should not happen

    Parang lugi sa P10k. Yung 3M tint lang eh free naman talaga yun. Matting and car cover wala pa P5k. Pero like I said before reluctant talaga sila magbigay ng discount. If you back out, I'm sure someone else is willing to bite on their lure kasi malakas nga demand.

    To me, swerte ka na at nabigyan ka pa ng ganyang freebies at discount despite na hot unit pa rin ang Mz3. Mind you, hindi ako nag-eexpect ng kung ano mang discount nung time na binili ko yun sasakyan ko. Isa lang naman ang binilin ko sa SA ko that time, bigyan ako ng isang libreng full tank at libreng LTO. Ayaw ko kasi ng 3M tint that time at di rin daw maganda ang car cover na binibigay nila. Ni payong nga wala ako pero ok lang kasi madami naman kaming payong sa bahay.

    Bonuses are nice, but it's really the commodity that counts, right? Still a great blessing to finally snag 1. Grats, justdiy sir.🙏👍

    I'm just a little disappointed with my SA because he informed me at the last minute while I'm asking my bank to issue the Manager's check. I hope that was unintentional and he acted in good faith. hehe

    Bro, why don't you ask for 10k worth of gas instead? Since your SA can't give you discount, might as well have em converted to something that you will use everyday. Besides your car needs petrol anyway. I hope it's still possible instead of getting nomads and car cover.

    Hi sir geo and sir travs,

    I looked for other Dealers to check if they can match the discount of 10k. Mazda north edsa said they can give 5k. So I told my s.a. that someone will give me discount. He told me the SA from north edsa's bluffing because they don't have a unit and they are under 1 management hehe. Seems like super hot ang demand and wala talagang supply for mazda3 lately because of mzd2 and mx5.

    Pero in the end, he was able to convince his boss. 5k will be given. Hehe not bad. Better than nomad matting. Redundant na un eh. I'd really prefer cash discount.

    Monday daw ang bagsak ng unit.
