    new and have some questions..

    I hate to rain on your parade, but if you have limited credit you will have difficulty securing a loan, and if you do the interest rate will be high enough to push you over $400 per month. Just think man... you are only 18. Do you plan on having a family? I have 3 kids and a wife now, and I...

    Big black smoky problem

    I have never seen a MS3 that didn't puff black smoke when you stomped on the gas. It's fine, don't worry about it. It's annoying, but they run extra rich to prevent possible lean conditions and lower combustion temperatures.

    hmmm. is it just me, or is there ALOT of problem threads on this BBS?

    I agree with this. I also frequent Porsche forums and own one myself. As much as I love it, it has easily been one of the most unreliable machines I have ever purchased.

    Some POS Accord Hit My MS3!!!

    That really sucks. I think I would almost rather have my car totaled rather than have the frame straightened and suspension parts replaced or repaired.

    is 5w20 oil ok?

    No way I would run 5/20. It was changed by mazda for a reason! Many choose 5/40w even to protect against the excessive heat a turbo generates.

    1st gear.

    you don't have the clutch in all the way when you start moving the shifter if it does that.

    17" wheels that fit the MS3

    Same. I went to tire rack and they have a set of 16" steel wheels that will fit, and they have an insane price on 16" closeout blizzaks right now. I was thinking about buying my winter tires early this year...

    What are know reasons for oil smoke spewing from exhaust at idle?

    Many engine builders and experts believe that 5/40w is preferred for engine life and protection. 5/30 was chosen by Mazda in part for it's gas mileage and emissions improvement.
