Let's think. You want to take the MX-3, which is small, lightweight, and FWD, and turn it into a small, lightweight, RWD car. The second description sounds suspiciously like a Miata to me. You'd be better off buying a Miata, a hardtop, and trying to make a custom hatch for it than trying to put an e...

I got a intresting question Say I was to move my engine to the back, how would the engine get cooled if the intercooler only works on the front? You'd have to drive around in reverse all the time. It might look funny, but at least you'll have the engine in the back. :lol: Seriously tho, I'm sure th...

Re: should i buy???
no offense to the MX-3, but that doesn't seem like a fair deal. MX-3 alone isn't worth $3000, much less $3000 + a T-bird. The difference between the T-bird and the MX-3 can't be but more than about $1000 if there is any at all. I guess it would depend on the condition of both cars. I don't know much...

Re: wish me luck
yeah, i'm sure most people around here would choose the mx-3 over the mx-5, because after all, this is mx-3.com. i like both cars though. maybe eventually i'll be able to get both.

Re: wish me luck
nah, i had it at $1500 and the reserve was met, but in the last hour, someone outbid me. now i'm kinda torn between getting and MX-3 or an old school Miata, both of which i think are stylish cars that would be fun to drive, and they are both Mazda's so I can't lose either way.

Re: wish me luck
well, the beige mx3 deal fell through, but right now i'm about an hour away from winning a blaze red 95 mx3 rs on e-bay for $1500. if that holds up, i'll finally be joining the club. the car has just over 120k miles, in case anyone is curious. a blaze red mx3 would look pretty nice parked next to my...

Re: wish me luck
well, unfortunately i'm going to be delayed in getting the car. i just found out that i can't pick it up on a Saturday like I had planned, b/c I will need to get a tag for it in order to drive it home, and tag places aren't open on the weekend. So we'll see if I'm able to get it. It's been a weird w...

Re: Check out this rice mobile.
It's simply a matter of taste. Just because one person says it looks crappy doesn't make it fact. I have painted a few of the interior parts of my car and I think it looks cool. Some people will agree, some people will disagree. Anything can be called "ricer" because it's a very subjective...

Re: Check out this rice mobile.
I like the color scheme on the interior, that looks cool. If I get the beige MX3 that I'm looking at, I plan on doing the interior in either dark purple (which is my favorite color, but might look a little girlish, which is not good for a man's car) or in blue. the good thing with that color is that...

Re: wish me luck
he's selling it b/c he is getting another car. things are looking good so far, I think I might be able to snag this one. I was surprised to find one with such low mileage, normally the ones I find have over 100k miles. and this is the first one I have seen in that color, I don't know if they are jus...

if all goes well, by next weekend my search might be over. after several failed attempts, I have found a gem: a 1992 Elegant Beige Metallic RS, with just over 66k miles. The price is $1600, which I think is pretty good for that low mileage. As long as the car doesn't get sold by the time I can go to...

Re: might be joining the club soon :)
unfortunately i wasn't able to go look at the car today. it's about 3 hrs from where i live and if i go to look at it i want someone with me so that they can drive my other car home while i drive the mx-3 home. it wouldn't make much sense to go there and find out i want to get it only to have to mak...

might be joining the club soon :)
tomorrow (well i guess it's today since it's past midnight) i am going to look at a white 93 GS, and if it seems like a decent car (and if it isn't sold by then of course) i'm gonna get it. hopefully i will get to see what the fuss is all about :) <small>[ May 21, 2004, 11:41 PM: Message edited by: ...

Re: need a little more wisdom please
Well I did say in the first post to assume they are all in decent condition, so you have an out right there. The way I look at it, the more opinions I get, the better. This board is full of people that know a lot more about MX-3s and cars in general than I do.

Re: need a little more wisdom please
All five of the cars listed are 5 spds. I haven't even been looking for ones with Auto. Right now I'm torn between the cheaper GS b/c it is a V6 and it is the cheapest of the bunch, and the cheapest RS b/c it is newer and has fewer miles on it than the rest. I don't think I've seen any other MX-3's ...
