Sold. It went for $4500 in the end. You guys missed out!

So what do you suggest, removing the radiator? That's true of all short intakes without air scoops. I mostly drive around town, rarely over 40, and mostly tiny 2-3 mile commutes so the car is cold for many of its miles. Just so much more remarkable that I get 30 mpg! Anyway, it was installed...

yah short ram intake $20 at autozone :D

Totally. Where does he claim to be? Say you need money to ship it. The cost of shipping just went up (shady) . Tell him his check cleared. My condolences on both the cars. Wow, I never would've thought a Benz would depreciate so fast. Was there insurance on the shop, or did you get anything for...

Okay, so I decided to stay in school another semester and kept the car. (Also, got sick of fellow college assholes wasting my time with "just trying it out.") But now it's time to sell fer reals...

After comparing a tank of premium against a tank of regular, I'm a fan of regular now. Conservatively driving, there's no advantage to premium... seems perfectly OK to rely on the anti-knock sensor. I think your argument holds for aggressive driving tho. Flooring it results in the gas gauge...

The flywheel should only save gas from a physics perspective. You put the energy in when revving up and it goes down the drain when the engine spins down. Shouldn't do anything on the highway. It doesn't drain energy just because it has mass. Different story if you can't run comfortably at...

Far as I know riding the clutch only refers to having it partly engaged. Unless your pedal is maladjusted it should be completely disengaged when floored. Although either way actually returning to neutral isn't a big deal. The most common way to ride the clutch is to just touch your foot to the...

Yep. Stiff tires, always oil changes. Driving slow isn't as important as keeping RPMs low... while I was figuring out the manual I just kept it between 1500 and 2000 all the time and the mileage was awesome. Actually the accel under those conditions isn't horrible, there's a lot of torque. But...

Bump. Asking price is close to fair blue book value... it's definitely better than that.

323 your stick is so pristine. Howdjadoit?

Yeah, if your AC is weak get it serviced pronto. Just refill the coolant. Lots of power drained from the engine = lots of power tearing up the unit!

There is some front-end damage likely caused by gravel on rural roads. This photo pretty much shows all there is (it's mainly on the driver's side). You can see some chips with surface rust and a chip in the air dam. Not shown: scrape on rear bumper and small taillight chip driver's side...

I'm selling my MP3 in favor of something with more trunk space. Asking $4600, trying to sell soon! Actually I never got into the whole showy sporty thing. It's just been a very nice daily driver for the last year. The previous owner added a short air intake but nothing else. Unfortunately the...
