Cool car. I still like seeing a bodykitted car :shrug: :shrug: :shrug:, but I do agree that the stock parts will look much cleaner/better. 8)

I agree but im one of those guys who "wont leave his era"

also aarons sig is a perfect example of this car and many other guys taking off the body kits. Now the new thing is stance but remember boys and girls "We all want to be fast and look cool. Cool changes but fast never does." :lol: :lol: :lol:

Yup, getting out of the whole cheap looking body kit scene. Hard to find a good body kit or even a mix match kit for our cars that flows and has nice lines. Personally, I love the stock look with some factory goodies myself and a decent set of wheels. Its growing on me... :D

If I hadn't already invested in an MS one I would too, the wrap arounds a good choice Chris, seems like any MX-3 in any colour can pull it off nicely.

Got the mx out of my father in-law's basement today where it was stored for the winter. It is now in the garage waiting for new timing belt kit and water pump and also some new shifter bushings. Rear cam jumped timing last fall. Kick my self in the a-- for not doing the timing belt and water pump before I put the engine in. I knew better from past experience. Done them before with the original 1.8 in the car. What year mx6 2.5L do I buy the timing belt / water pump kit for if it's a ZE? :)

Still like the way it looks sometimes from some angles with the hood and body kit but can't wait for the new look 8)

The new looks going to be great, and you won't have to worry about that crushing sound of fiberglass as you go over a speed bump. :?
