got my MS3 this weekend!

[slashsnake]

Ok, so I went out and finally picked up my 2010 MS3. Silver, sans-tech package... my god this thing moves and sticks.

Decided to go for a drive today with the wife for valentines day of course... Snow in Estes park, Snow in Colorado Springs, Snow in Denver, Snow in the rockies west of there, Snow in Cheyenne.... Couldn't go West and up some mtn roads... Headed east to Nebraska, not much to see there, but plenty of open road (and 30+ mph winds). Had a great day, sync'd my blackberry to my car, and my wife's so I can listen to the music on that and make calls on my car now (enough tech for me without the tech package, though that pushbutton start is so not worth it, but I so wanted it).

Love how the interior looks at night... though more buttons on the dash of this than the last cessna 172 I took up.

Hoping I get used to the "smile" up front... No other qualms at all.

Wheels, tint, intake, rear sway bar and miles of twisty roads...a match made in heaven.

Congrats!

Well as for the enhancements, I will probably be waiting a bit. Had to use the "practical" argument to convince the wife on this... sway bars, intake, downpipe, racepipe, etc. are on the back burner for now.

What is sad, my Nissan Xterra has a SRI, but my Speed 3 will be stock... haha!

Address the intake first. Huge benefit from CAI or SRI alone. Amazing transformation from that single mod. I know of no other way to get 20+ whp gain for the same amount of money.

Enjoy your new MS3. They represent fantastic value for the dollar.

Agree MSMS3, ARI was my first mod and loved it, added a Hybrid BPV next, then a catback for sound, SSP, and a RSB this past weekend loved this one. I have done some cosmetic work just for looks, waiting on a body kit so the clown will stop smiling at me.

Nothing additional for performance until the AP is ready for the 2010. Then the DP (sitting at home) and possibly a larger TMIC, with a tune.

As stated above, $/hp is not bad value.

If you look in the mirror you will.

Dont forget a pair of HIDs. This car's projector headlamp can take HID very decently

Just drive it. It has a zillion dollars of engineering in it already. If you have extra money, buy your wife something nice, and be thankful you are not driving a Prius!!
