Illinois Ms3's

Nice Greg! Congrats! I'm in the same boat as you!

Here's a side shot I just took at lunch when I got back to work.

I'll make a deal with you. Just let me know which filter it takes so that I can let my parts guy know which filter to put out for it. Ask for Bill when you call to set up an appointment. But you gotta get me a good price on detailing my car this summer.

Do you work @ Pugi?

I'm sure Ken @ PG will know which filter it is. His site doesn't specify which one comes with the kit.

Did a quick search in the MS3 forum and found one of his posts with this info:

If you get exact part #'s, LMK and I'll stock up on them once I get the kit.
 
sooo many white ms3's comin out the the woodwork...


feels good...but it doesnt...heh ;)
 
Pugi FTW! That is where I bought mine.(headbang)

Yah, Naperville Mazda can suck on my nuts. I worked out a deal with a super nice sales guy on a Friday night. Then they severely lowballed me on the trade, so we walked. I called back Monday afternoon, salesguy was MIA. Called again Tuesday AM and ended up speaking to a sales manager who flat out told me he was willing to loose a sale because they wouldn't honor the deal we had worked out.

So not only did Pugi honor the same price, but they are further away from my house and I will be bringing my car there for dealer work instead of Naperville Mazda which is closer.

Here's to you "Bronco" the sales manager at Naperville Mazda(monkey) Nice name BTW Bronco.
 
I do work at pugi. I am a service writer so I'm sure you will get to know me. I'll check that part number in the morning to see if we stock it. Thanks Ken for getting it to me.

Sweet! Tell Stan to call me (which he was going to anyways)

He forgot the locking wheel locks along with the cargo net. He told me to talk to Paul when I make service appointments. . .

Oh that is is crappy, I bought mine from the Wilkins Buick Mazda. can't complain bout the service.

It's funny that you mentioned Naperville Mazda....some of the people in the dealer when I bought mine were talking how bad it was there.

Pugi is great....my wife bought her 05 Mazda 6s and her current 07 CX7, and I bought my MS3 there.
 
Did stan ever call you? If not I will let him know. As for the filters we do stock them when you cal for an apptask for Bill.
 
Maryville, IL.

If you guys are ever in Peoria, DO NOT go to that dealership. They really screwed up my car when I was there for an internship for Caterpillar. I had them check my motor mount since I heard that the early production models had a problem with it, and the did not tighten it, and the engine dropped to the ground after driving it for a while. Then they did not use the right tools. There is a big hex head plug on the side of the transmission, and instead of finding the hex head, they just used channel locks. Also, when they were putting the transmission back together, I blew 2nd and 4th gear, they forgot to reinstall a couple bolts on the bottom and on top of it, it was leaking fluid from a different part of the transmission. It was 10 days from being a lemon law, they messed it up so bad.
So, if you need a dealer and are around there....drive somewhere else!

Yah, he called. the parts should be in Wed he said.

Do you work in the parts dept or the service dept?
 
Spotted 2 MS3's today:

1st was on 30, I was going west around 3:30ish and going east on 30 I saw a black, blue HID's and yellow fog lights (how my MP3 used to look)

then on Ordchard Rd, going south I spotted a true red going north, about 15 mins ago. I think it was the guy in my subdivision.
 
TR in gurnee... i've seen 3 or 4 red ms3's around me by abbot labs, any of you guys?
