    Damn Air fresheners...

    I bought one of those damn air fresheners(shaped like a little blue pine tree) from a car wash a couple days ago, and since it's illegal to hang them from your mirror, I hung it around the plug for my cell phone's charger cable, which as you know sits above the cup holder lid. I came out there...

    Most incredible commercial ever.

    Nope, surprisingly enough, the speakers are real. It took the speaker systems of two Honda Accords to acheive that setup, believe it of not. And if I remember correctly, the muffler setup could not be moved closer because everthing behind it required that it be in a certain spot to make sure...

    Most incredible commercial ever.

    Actually, everyone is partially right. The wheels roll uphill because one side of the wheel is counterweighted to complete the revolution before stopping. The only part of the commercial taken in two different takes is the part where the muffler rolls off the ramp; the engineers could not...

    Most incredible commercial ever.

    I am still in awe at this commercial. Don't know if anyone has posted about this before, but I figured it was good enough to post twice. As much as I love Mazda, I have to say that Honda outdid them in this category(why can't Mazda commercials be this cool?). Just watch and see what I mean...

    3rd gear problems AGAIN

    damn, what to do...the dealer said everything seemed fine, but no matter what, third gear always grinds when I shift into it, and not to mention it has recently begun throwing me outta gear after shifting into it. Even under easy acceleration, I can shift into third, let the clutch out, cruise...

    Parents forcing me to strip my car...

    thanks everybody, I appreciate your sympathy and support. Even if I'm without my baby at school, I will still be a frequent visitor on this forum, so have no fear - I'll always be here. As for Rob, that alone might scare him...lol, just kidding. Chandler

    Parents forcing me to strip my car...

    haha, my parents are different; I've been into cars long since before I got the P5, so I guess they figured it would happen no matter what car I had. My dad had a '93 FD twin turbo that he played with, and I kinda got hooked by that car. Actually, my parents have been very supportive of my...

    Parents forcing me to strip my car...

    Yeah, the school does allow freshmen to have a car, it's just that my parents think it best for an avid MP5 enthusiast such as myself to be carless for the first semester, maybe even the first year(gasp). I'm going to Emory and Henry College, up in Bristol(Abbington) Virginia. Oh, and yeah...

    Pics of My 2000 Protege w/ kit

    About the gunmetal wheels...mine can go for quite a bit without showing dirt, but being that I'm anal about shiny wheels, I clean them all the time. I personally like the way gunmetal looks on red, but maybe thats just me. BTW, that car looks incredible man...keep it up.:D
