New fog, was installed on car for a month. No chips/cracks. $110 6 disc unit from same car, 142K on it. $50 Rear endlink, check the PN to make sure it's what you need. It's not for a P5, and I don't think it fit a 2000 DX either. $20 Prices include shipping in the lower 48.

Too bad I can only vote once. I have a Laser Blue, Midnight Blue, and a Sunlight Silver.

What's wrong with OBX??? I've had mine on for 180,000 miles-No leaks, No CEL. AWR fitment against the radiator fans is very tight.

Got P5 #3 home today. 02 Sunlight silver. 142K. I forgot how bad stock motor mounts are. I put AWR's on after 2 months of driving the 03.5 when I bought it new.. And I'm debating on taking #3 away from the wife and giving her the BMW.

I bought my 03.5 with 0.... and put 1/4 of a million on it... Need to take some shots of it to a bodyshop for estimates. I'd love to see it go 300K+

Just bought #3 and this one has a measly 142,500 miles on it.

Wife is OK, some surgery required. Half a day in the hospital. The car has been totalled before, rear ended 3 times, backed over, and has a mere 283,000 miles. The frame is knocked back on the drivers side, the subframe is folded up like paper, rad and condenser both trashed, headlights broken...

Wife totalled it... Thank god it was the protege, it took the hit well.

Struts don't support the car, springs do. It's probably got a broken spring. From the one side angle it looks like the alignment is out of whack, looks like a bunch of positive camber. Something is definitely messed up in the frontend. It looks like it took a hit in the frontend too, and the...

The only issue I see is the EGR bung. Not the correct type of flange. Should be a tapered seat. Like the one below.

So I pulled my 03.5 apart today because it had a vacuum leak. Found that the intake gasket failed from all of the oil being sucked in at the one PCV port. Gasket was sucked in on cyl 4. What junk. Car only has 276K on it, and I replaced the intake gasket ~80K when I did the VTCS removal.

My original one was $345 or so shipped in 03. Pretty sure I sold it for 250 I was quite annoyed when I couldn't get the one back from the 02.
