Cobb Tuning drops Mazdaspeed platform

For quite some time, the MAZDASPEED community has, in large part, been confrontational, disrespectful, unprofessional, vulgar or childish regarding any announcements and/or business decisions COBB Tuning has made on public forums. Responses ranging from outrage and profanity to threats of intellectual property piracy have become the normal reaction when things don't go exactly to their wishes. No amount of professionalism, realism or rationale has worked in turning these communications into more constructive discussions.

Although COBB Tuning is a business, it is made up of enthusiasts that work here and they love what they do. Everyone gets a lot of satisfaction from taking on the hard projects like cracking and controlling the MAZDASPEED ecu and making it do what no one else does. When ongoing criticism to these efforts is "**** COBB" or "I'm going to hack your software and give it away" or "**** these OTS maps" or "Hopefully Cobb will get it's head out of it's ***", it tends to make everyone less enthusiastic about working on it.

We have decided to bring MAZDASPEED development to a close because no one at COBB finds it rewarding to put in the hours and hours of effort just to have so many people spouting negativity and insults. In fact, many of our pro tuners have been monitoring the MAZDASPEED forum discussions to gauge interest and have come back with "Uh, nevermind...not worth dealing with it" responses. It's a shame that while the MAZDASPEED community is demanding more performance products from manufacturers, the tribal infighting, Lord of the Flies atmosphere and unrestrained attitude displayed on the forums is actually driving choice and new development out of the market. It might be fun for some, but the entire community suffers as a whole.

Regards,

Gary Sheehan
Director of Marketing
COBB Tuning


J christ way for a vender and part maker to act immature and pull out cuz some immature 18yr olds said bad things. Ugh just when they were going to have some cool parts. Their development for the gtr and evox sucks anyway there other tuners making way more power then them...This new "owner" is ******* it up.

I saw that Eminem vid at like 4:30am last night. It was quite funny.

I'm about to pull the trigger on the Hahn exhaust and Sportlines.



This is a better side mirror pic.

Doubtful. It's to use the store credit from my wheels. Good deal on the exhaust so I might as well since there's really nothing else I can get. Stage kit is pretty guaranteed to have an intake with it. I have wheels. Only other thing I'll get is a tint. I won't have time to get it installed before the meet. I mentioned I'll be in Chicago with the Hahn guys and could even pick it up there.

I need a tint, a drop, and a real camera. Pics don't do the wheels justice anyway.

How late do you think you'll be there? I'll be heading back from Fairmont on 169 and would love to hear it before I buy it. I'll probably be in the area around 9ish.

I had sunlight directly behind me and it's my phone camera. My eye prescription just ran out so I'll probably ask for a tint prescription for 30%. If I can't get one, I'll just get 50% probably.

How much are you willing to spend....Id say get nothing older than an 2005.

Why mess around with local dealers when you can just deal with the #1 Corvette dealer? Fly out and drive it home. If your really serious about buying a Vette, I suggest talking to these guys.
#1 Worlds Largest Corvette Dealer!

If you must buy older, at least be sure to get a Z06.

i want a c5. if i sell my baby i might as well make sure the payments are less than what i'm doin now so i'm guessin around 20k and and yeah, i'd like a z06 but i dunno. either way it'll have lingenfelter on it eventually and an slp loud mouth exhaust will be put on it. cuz of the price range i'm lookin for it probably wouldn't be a z06 though even with high miles it's still more around 25k
