Haha well lilred finally go to pick up the car this weekend. So of course I had to take some goodbye pics cause I'm lame like that! Also, my new car right behind it. 08 MS3 GT, I love it! Even thought it's wrong wheel drive... I suppose it's time to change my avatar now...
Oh, I'm not going anywhere. It was a goodbye to my old car!! ****ers can't get rid of me that easily!!:laugh:
hey! i see part of my shoe in the back in the first pic! yay me! thanks for the car! and man does that 3 pull on the highway! try not to freak out anymore srt jeeps.
dont know the spec on that new car of yours justin but that 3 is fast on the highway! hey matt you gonna do anything else to it before the trip?
No. Well, I do have a new stiffer motor mount. But that won't do anything for power. May help put some power down on the digs but thats it. Otherwise it's just the shifter bushings and that Mazdaspeed CAI for a while. I kinda lost my ass selling the WRX!!:eek3::laugh: Justin, you bringing the 335i to the trip? You'll take me I'm sure with all the mods done to it. But it'll be fun anyway!
Yeah, you should. They're pretty nice, even for FWD. Plus I haven't had people try to race me too much. Nice and stealth. Unless I instigate
yeah, i love the stealthy look as well. I heard there is not much potential for tunning. But they are very much underrated for power. Apparently 3mps won over 06 wrx in lots of points, especially interior quality and driving comfort. Its only a second or two slower 0-60 and i think some or almost in quarter mile.
hopefully you dont drive like on a daily basic when we were TRYING to follow you. but damn do you get from point A to point B fast!
Sad to see the 'Diz-mobile' go, but at least it isn't going far! Great, now I'm going to be teased and taunted for being the "Mazda guy's" room mate.:roll::laugh: Btw...the new avatar is slightly disturbing.
"Mazda guy" is the last thing you should be worried about in that room:yumyum: The Av is just a hint of whats to come!!!
yep! 3 subie! two of them are almost twins! now i can save money and start modding the rs a lil more. and dont forget about the yamaha! dont want to make it jealous.
yes, and a totalled mazdaspeed and 08 wrx that have started on fire and rolled down a hill together look better then your buick, and even serve more of a purpose. very nice car, my wife has a mazda, very reliable, good handling cars. ive thought about a MS6 a few times
see one in real life, you'll get it, jason was the same way, then he saw one, and dont even pretend to say you have seen one, because i know you havent.
They make decent power... kinda fall flat on their face around 5200RPMS though. Overall I think it'd be a fun summer around towner. Mods: CPE CAI
Mine actually falls flat closer to 5800-6000. Kinda sucks since redline is 6750. Makes it kinda worthless to have a redline that high. But I hear the race pipe and CBE help to push the threshold higher. Hopefully Cobb has a AP out soon otherwise CPE is working on making their stand back ECU unit Plug n Play. But other than that, I won't be doing much else besides sways and springs and lighter wheels... Stock wheels weigh 24lbs!!:eek4:
A good friend of mine is looking at the 08' MS3GTs as well. Where did you purchase it from? If you don't mind me asking, what did you end up paying for it?
I got mine from Morries Minnetonka for $1250 off MSRP. I just had edmunds spam them, Walser and Brookdale. The other 2 originally said they would do $750 off for the 08 GTs. But Jesse Howard the internet sales guy at Morries was pretty cool. Hooked it up good for me so I decided to do business with him. But he knew I had already been to Brookdale and was going to Walser. So he asked me what it would take for me to buy from him and made it happen.
