    One Week in my 2007 Touring 3

    I will answer the last two... The MP3 CD did not work. CD player looked at it and spit it out. So much for that. Wish they had made it compatible. Between XM and the Sansa, I think I have enough music for and hour of so... ;) The jack you see next to the aux input is a second charging jack...

    I don't mind being called TR. The fan puts out plenty of air, just that the air is kinda warmer than outside. Very noticable on warm days, where the AC is optional. I find cracking the rar windows and the rear of the sun roof works very well to clear the car or before the ac kicks in. The AC...

    Drove home to MD from Harrisburg and that was one great evening. Had front windows down, sun roof open, heater turned up slightly and was heaven. The beautiful sunset and the 3, along with the Ipod playing Boston. Doesn't get any better than that. Final drive to home is through the hills of...

    Have you tried that Goof Off stuff. Sort of removes all kinds of residue, without fogging the paint. What is the BeanSoldiers 1,2,3??? New to the forum and have been just nosing around. Rog

    The Fiero is an 86 with a 3800 SC out of a 91 Bonneville. 5 sp with KYB shocks and Eibachs. Kick to drive. About 230 HP and 240 ft/lbs. More reliable than the V-8 Fieros, because the Getrag tranny won't take the abuse. This is the smaller 3800. Later ones were 240 hp + small pulley + intercooler...

    Hey look at it this way. Ferraris are 250k and insurance is hell. Talk to anyone who owns one and they are like horses, always at the vet. This little car does fast, turns, stops with the best. 30 MPG and comfy in the winter. My 04 had 70k and the only thing I replaced were tires and rear...

    I got them from this list in the equipment area. or www.xenonexpert.com They were $ 64.95 plus shipping. Well worth the price. Aluminum with the embossed 3 logo in black. Beats the H out of Momo. Roger

    Now that I see how the attachments work, here is a closeup of the pedals. Also a picture of my 04 after the "accident". She hit me hard enough to drive me sideways into the dirt along the road. I had no injuries and not even a sore left arm. Car really did its job. I had just put 4 Michieln...

    I think Rio Racer needs a life. I am going to try to post pics of the installed pedals. Again, I would make sure you have a drill with 90 deg head and I would cover the peads with masking tape to keep damage from wayward drill bits and accidently bottoming out the drill (leaves marks)...

    I am always observant for Black 3s with suits in them. When I went looking for my car seems all I found were Black Mica. Got in the Mazda 3 aluminum pedal and dead pedal set today and installed them. Look great, but were a pain to drill the holes. Finally used an angle drill and had to go buy...

    I live at 1600 Pennsy Ave DC and normally you will have to crash into my Black Suburban with the Secret Service boys on board. Don't worry they won't bother you. If you hit something with a Kia Rio going fast enough you might disappear. Rog (enguard)

    I will take kindly to the "old folks" thing as I earned the title. Still gotta have the left pedal and a engine that loves to rev. Started off years ago with an Oldsmobile powered Hudson D Gasser. None of the "Oldies" hold a candle to these cars. My other fun car is a 86 Fiero coupe with a 3800...
