What have you done to your Mazda6 today?

@tunersteve: great news to hear steve! (about the check in hand soon), i know you been struggling to sell the ms6 for a while.
hate to see you go, but you do what you feel you gotta do! heh, i see you finally announcing your "stepping down", our little convo about that seemed so long ago...

@blendercloud: no worries meng, you too; do what you feel you gotta do. maybe you'll someday get the mod bug again and be excited about the ms6 once more :D
LoL, so now that you announced this whole mod situation, if im denied that'll be embarrasing! heh nah i wouldnt be upset cause it'd be funny. hahaha

@evolved: have you test driven the 2011 wrx yet? it's a pretty fun drive, is faster 0-60 than sti, and looks good. drawbacks imo were subura still having lackluster interiors (you might miss the MS6 interior lol), mushy gear box, only 5 gears.

@everyone else: ok so what i did to my MS6 lately was hit the 50k mile mark this past Sunday... did i already mention that before? I will be prepping my car the next couple days as i am tracking again this Friday!!! SO excited especially since i only have to pay for gas. afterwards, its no more track or mods till 2011. But watch for new track pics soon! latest downtown los angeles photo shoot pics being worked on. for 2011, my major $$ is for coilovers, the ETS v2 TMIC, tuning (ap or HT), and various small bits. i still need injector cleaning and new sparkplugs soon because im getting KR way too often lately...

/endoflongasspost. lol
 
If I traded for anything at this point it would be a 335xi. But then I'd get the modding bug and would start all over and never make it out of the damned condo we live in!

At least we've got the wedding completely paid for with 12 months to spare!

Sounds like the wedding planning is going well! Anna and I are nearly done with ours at this point (with ~10 months to go).

I haven't driven it....yet. The new interiors on the Limited model are pretty nice. Leather, heated seats, moonroof, nicer dash materials.....but the MS6 interior is nicer than the average car. 5 gears does turn me off, too.
 
Well, today keeps getting better. The new owner is going to the bank to pay off the loan, and my Mustang just arrived at the dealer. Looks like I won't be waiting without a car for a few days. I wish I could leave work right now and go check it out.

Wow, sounds like a lot of guys are getting married this year. I have about 7 months until ours, and like you I'm sure, most of our free money is tied up in wedding and honeymoon, so mods are on the waiting list.

Great news Steve! Make sure you get some pics if there's something to see.

Well ladies & gentlemen, I am no longer the owner of my Speed6. Handed over the keys to the new owner a few minutes ago, and have paid it off. I'll be formally resigning all of my duties as section mod effective immediately.
 
If someone is interested in taking on the responsibilities, PM me. I can recommend someone to Antoine if you're interested.

And there it goes...
 
^ not a bad idea. he is pretty active here.

there are a good many well informed ms6 owners here that would be well suited for mod too.
i guess finding someone with a balanced platform knowledge as well as very active on the forums is the trick?

i say anyone who replaces both steve and blender have some big shoes to fill!
we'll miss you guys, even if you "stop in every so often". :) totally nohomo. haha
 
in addition, my girlfriend's brother just bought a LPM MS6 today! I'll try to bring him to the forums.
