Thanks guys im very excited, i was iffy on the purchase cause im a cheap 'c' you next tuesday. That was, until, I had a near death experience on the test drive. It's odd that they never let you test an emergency situation on a test drive unless it's required, well, it happened. It seemed like before i had a chance to react the car made the decision for me, not a scratch on the car, and the salesman almost s--- himself. After the way too close call i signed the dotted line. It also pulls hard like a mother you know what! BTW, the MS3 will be the driver, as i amass parts and restore my SE.

Nice- I really want to think about one of these, but the wife just will not get over the fact that it is fast... Gawd- I will only spend a little bit of extra money on it. She would rather me get a "sedan" so I am thinking 3 series or maybe TL type S... lol
grats bro, good looking cars imo. Look sick with a tiny lowering and some rims.

Gratz , welcome to the MS family ;).

Suggestion, get the hypertech tuner. I've been working with them on doing some beta testing and have seen first hand what they got out of a stock speed3.

I have the same tune on my car and its deffinatley worth it.

Small point, radio is dedicated so your kinda screwed I think if you want to install an aftermarket deck. The cars are definitely fast.

Actually I was worried about that for the 8, but it's doable on the 3 as well.

You just have to get the the good quality specific kits and not the cheapo universal ones you find at Walmart and Canadian Tire
