Great idea, Sir Nuke. I'm all over that.

Thanks guys. I'll keep you posted if I hear of anything; in the meantime I think I'll get the Mazda cargo mat and keep using the tarp for the seats.

Hi folks, Anybody know if anyone makes a cargo mat for the P5 that covers the entire storage area when the rear seats are folded down? As a musician, I'm always hauling tons of (dirty) gear and would like to keep the back of the seats looking nice. I know Mazda makes a few for the P5 for use...

Gotta love Taxachusetts... :-)

Kamala- so true. My insurance agent is awesome; he'd have hooked me up if he could have. It's definitely the wonderful commonwealth of MA. Don't get me started on excise tax... which my friend pays every year even though he's leasing. Heh. Colnago- very good point! :-)

Awesome. I might be going down this path sometime soon... :-)

Thought you guys might appreciate this one... So my wife and I traded in both our cars for our new P5. My wife has a couple of tickets and an accident on her record (not her fault, but the cop said it was, so she got points for it) whereas I've been lucky and have a clean record. When I called...

Nice! Does the stock HU have preamp-outs to run into an amp if you go that route?

Thanks again guys. Go Mass P5ers. May our cars last longer than the Big Dig. Hey Kamala- are you running those awesome speakers with the stock HU? How's it sound? Any plans to upgrade the HU if you haven't already?

Thanks! Hi everyone, Thanks so much for the warm greetings! Sorry to take so long to repond; I'm still finding my way around the board and didn't see your messages until tonight. You guys rock! -ben-o P.S. Can I just say how much I love the car? :-) It's the big things (like the way it...

rain Oh yeah, and to commiserate about the rain- the dealer washed and waxed the car beautifully. Nary a speck of dust or watermark on it. So of course we drove it home in a thunderstorm. Guess I'll be washing it tomorrow...

My first post... Hi everyone, My wife and I just picked up our new P5 tonight, so I thought I should drop in and say hello to everyone. Just got back from a long drive around the streets of Boston. The car is a dream to drive. We each had a Honda Civic from the mid 90's and decided to trade...
