    A few pics of my Pearl White MS3...

    Funny enough there is an article in the current Car and Driver about cops now being used as a form of revenue... On holidays Illinois actually has state cops every 10 miles on every highway...they even advertise it on the radio/TV/etc. I just took a class to get a ticket off my record and they...

    In illinois the state cops don't mess around with the front license plate thing...they will pull you over. I was heavy active in the GTO community and I can't count the guys who got busted for not having one. The also don't mess around with having your front windows tinted either...they will...

    Sold my Evo for an MS3 :) lol

    Very interesting story... Personally...even though the EVO tends to beat on it's drivers, I'd have a hard time letting go of such a rare and hard-to-find-in-good-condition car. I got the same response from my buddies when I traded my GTO on a new MS3...it just didn't suit my purpose anymore as...

    Perception is reality but the MS3 may be the best balanced car Ive ever driven

    I understand what your saying...I bet you I couldn't make my MS3 do a 0-60 as fast as the magazines report either, a driver does have alot to do with the outcome. I was just trying to compare stock cars. There's something to be said for what a car can do stock. You can mod anything...but as...

    Perception is reality but the MS3 may be the best balanced car Ive ever driven

    Stock for stock though? Nearly any car can be made into something other than what it was born as. I'm talking out of the box-vs-out of the box. Bone stock a MS3 can't hang with an EVO on a track handling wise...

    Perception is reality but the MS3 may be the best balanced car Ive ever driven

    Perception is reality but the MS3 may be the best balanced car Ive ever driven

    Perception is reality but the MS3 may be the best balanced car Ive ever driven You knowafter having spent some time in some fun performance vehicles (EVO, terminator Cobra, Sentra SER Spec V, GTO, Mustang GT, Lightning, SHO, etc) I can say this little MS3 is possibly one of the best-balanced...

    CPe Nano review and impressions...

    CPe Nano review and impressions...(now with vids) Just finished installing the CPE X-CEL Nano on my 08 MS3 Right off the bat the quality of this SRI was evident. Of all the SRI/CAIs Ive installed over the years, this unit was by far the best Ive seen. The fit and finish was near flawless. I...
