In over 2 years, I haven't once thought of selling it. My wife told me the other day she wanted me to sell my car because we don't have room for two cars. I told her she's free to sell the 626, but I'm keeping the MX3.

I've considered selling it just a few times in the past two years I've had it, mostly at the pressure of my husband or when we were having major problems with the engine.

However, now that I've gotten the engine fixed, I'm extremely happy with it. I wouldn't sell mine. It may not look pretty but it runs great!

Maybe twice, usually when seeing how much rust damage she has when she's on the hoist, but when i drive it, i forget completely about it, especially now that it's all getting fixed

I considered it once briefly shortly after getting my truck done here a couple of days ago.. My truck has more power and gets better gas mileage and has more cargo room and its a truck so I dont have to give a crap what it looks like.. Then I had to make a 100 mile trip between the two stores I work at.. couldnt take the truck.. too soon to trust it after the engine transplant.. so I took my MX-3.. and all thoughts of selling it vanished at the first corner ;) Sure wish I didnt have to do the ATX to MTX swap though LOL

I liked my car so much I bought s 2nd one....but she is on downtime now because of a nice bon fire that decided to start under my hood. As I sat there looking at my car in the shop....I was ready to just kick it and get rid of it. But then I thought I saw a tear come from the headlight as I was thinking that, so I gave her a hug and told the mechanic to make her better.

Never.

Wanted an MX-3 since late 1991 when I saw my first one, a 1992 model. Waited until I could afford to buy one lol. Bought my '95 in 2001 and whaddya know,... my savings finally matched up with the market price for a '95. :D

MX-3's design was an instant classic, even if sales #'s were low, this car will elicit admiring comments and questions for years to come. That said, I don't need to depend on it as a daily driver all the time anymore so makes it easier to keep it at least another 10 years. By then, I'll probably have gotten rid of the 1990 MX-6 LX though... :wink:
