Goodmorning,
i'd like to introduce myself: My name is Gert and i am from Holland.
Unfortunately in Holland there's no CX-3 forum, so i would like to join your club!
My english is not spotless but i'll do my best.
Since last thursday i am the proud owner of a 2016 CX-3 2.0 GT-M with automatic gearbox in the color Deep Crystal Blue.
Till now i am very happy with my first Mazda ever, therefor the Suject 'Mazda virgin'.
Because of change of work we do not need two cars anymore so we changed our Alfa Romeo MiTo 0.9 Twin Air Turbo (2012) and our Renault Wind Gordini 1.6 (2012) for this Mazda.
The CX-3 is a much more modern car and more luxe than the other two, which, of course, i like very much.
Following a list of cars i've owned:
- Mitsubishi Colt (1986)
- Ford Fiësta (1994)
- Suzuki Baleno 1.8 GTX (1997)
- Citroën Xsara Picasso (2002)
- Suzuki Samurai (2002)
- Fiat Seicento Sporting (1998)
- Mercedes A170 CDI Long (2001)
- Toyota Corolla Verso (2005)
- Smart ForTwo (2004)
- Smart Roadster (2008)
- Smart ForTwo Cabrio (2009)
- Fiat 500 (2010)
- Toyota iQ (2009)
- Alfa Romeo MiTo )2012)
- Renault Wind Gordini (2012)
The only thing missing in my CX-3 till now is center arm rest, i have ordered this item.
I am curious if there are forum members that have built in the arm rest theirselves and if it is a hard thing to do.
Regards,
Gert
Mazda virgin
Welcome and your English is excellent.
There are instructions on this forum re fitting the center arm rest and i am sure someone will post the link up.
Also if you can pictures are always welcome on this forum.

Dear Gert,
Actually there is a forum in The Netherlands, but it is not very active
https://www.autozine.nl/mazda/cx-3/forum
That's one of the reasons why I am here
- Mazda CX-5 2023 Exclusive-Line (Black Comfort Pack) Petrol FWD Manual Soul Red Crystal Metallic
Thanks hsdejong for your reaction.
Nice to know that i'm not the only foreigner on this forum~
I'll stay also on this forum, because a not very active forum like the dutch one is like no forum!
Regards,
Gert

Hi Gert,
Love your accent!
Love your accent!
Mazda paint is crap! Mazda should be ashamed of themselves!.
Everyone!
I did it!!
Thanks to Mark and Anchorman (the one that posted the armrest-build-in-fitting-instructions originally) i did manage to build in the armrest myself!
A pity for you, Mazda dealer in Leiden, you're not gonna make a fortune out of me!!
I am proud of myself, i did it within one hour i think, maybe ten minutes longer!
Thanks again for your welcome, support, tips!!
Unfortunately my CX-3 has been showered with some heavily Sahara sand rainstorms, so he/she isn't 'photo-worthy' at the moment, but i promiss photos will appear soon!
Now i am going to sit in my car and leave my right arm (Yes, my steeringwheel is on your wrong side!) resting on the brand new, freshly build-in armrest and just sit and enjoy!
Later!
Gert

As promised: Pictures!
I am sad and angry, but fortunately next Saturday the CX-3 will be having a 'spot-repair' and hopefully the damage will then be (almost) gone...
Unfortunately the side you don't see on the pictures (drivers side) has been damaged wit some small dents... I believe, i can't imagine an other cause, it has happend in the carwash this morning, but there they keep saying that isn't possible...I am sad and angry, but fortunately next Saturday the CX-3 will be having a 'spot-repair' and hopefully the damage will then be (almost) gone...
