i got a call this mornin from a friend of mine here in edmonton and he told me that there was a mx3 in front of a local scrap metal yard ... by the time i got done there it was already hit on the drivers side by a forklift and yeah it was already put in the yard to be crunched.... i was able to get in the car and at least save a few items before i got kicked away from the car... it was a true 1992 gs v6 auto with sunroof.... i was perturbed to say the least cause if i got there early enough i could have took the whole car for nothin as once it goes in the yard they can't sell it....
why is it that people who want to get rid of their mx3's just post it up on kijiji for free and people who enjoy these cars and try to save these little gems can pick them up damn.......c'mon fellow enthusiasts keep your eyes out
my old car was a complete wreck and i saved it form its demise to later sell it and some kid totally destroyed it....
poor mx3

Re: poor mx3
wow man that really sucks.
it woulda been nice to save.
and that also sucks someone wrecked the car you built.
i had the same problem. with my dohc 4cyl mx3.
i rebuilt the motor.
cleaned up the interior.
put a body kit on it.
made it really nice and put some 17in. enki rims. and toyo proxies
sold it.
the guy made 2 payments.
then i had to repo.
and all the tires were slashed along with the whole car![Sad :(](./images/smilies/icon_sad.gif)
today i have fixed everything i could.
and now my brother drives it haha.
well its sad to see a beautiful car go to waste like that though
