I think the interior is worse than the outside!! occasionally, if done tastefully in a good colour, it can look ok with a painted dash, but thats just waaaaaayyyyyyyyyy too much for me!!
and x2 for the missing clutch pedal :wink:

PFFT, Mine was falling off when I got my car. I swapped it with the brake pad for a few months... Didn't care for it, so I put the brake one back on and slapped some Griptape on the clutch pedal. Freebie from a skateshop, the counter girl liked my hair apparently. ;)

Go griptape for the clutch, the lack of 'squish' when you clutch in means a finer feel, and it grips great wet or dry. It is a little TOO grippy for the first few trips, but you can wear it down with a block of wood or your heal if it's too bad. It took me about 2 days of ~40 miles in town driving a day.

Ice on the pedals is fail. Driving in winter boots is fail. Sometimes I can't get off the clutch because the toe of my boot is stuck in the bracketry.

Ryan,

I think grip tape would go nicely with ice actually! Better than rubber at least! I don't have that problem here really though... Also, I don't wear boots. I drive in Cross Trainers or DCs, because they're comfortable and I don't sacrifice any feel. My work shoes suck, I drove with them on a few times... They have a 1/4" FIRM rubber sole, and allow no feel. I constantly hit gas/brake together with them on too... It makes me feel uncoordinated. Try putting your toe on the clutch, if that's the case!

Ethan,

You'll love it! If you don't, its free/cheap so who cares?! ;D

I love it, I've had mine on there for a few months and it hasn't peeled or anything. The grip is still strong, way better than the rubber ever was. I do wish the clutch pad was a tiny bit bigger though, I might fix that eventually.

haha, yeah, I'll try to find some... i'm on hols for a month as of today, so i'll try find some in my spare time :lol:
haha i drive in my work shoes, they're those long thin leather square edged ones (mostly) and they let heaps of feel in, almost like not wearing shoes, just because their soles are so hard and thin... i feel weird driving in joggers (US Translation: Sneakers/Trainers)

Ah, congrats :D

Sneakers are the best for me, although I drove barefoot a fair bit in the summer. That was before the griptape I might add, that doesn't feel too good...

Nice find :)

These are some pictures of a meeting in Germany. The German community organizes a meet every year and often Dutch people attend this one as well.

The orange one is indeed very nice, the bad this is that the engine runs like crap. Completely rebuild with the best stuff + turbo'd but it's more of a smoke maker then something else.
Just another Mx3 freak :)
