yah seriously, ALL of his previous posts are about ebay FMIC's. OMG I just found a post of his from march re: body kits, hahaha(rlaugh)

So "legal" meaning MSCAI? How about a trip up to Toronto? This car is pretty much exactly what I'm looking for. EDIT: whoops, I realize "legal" is referring to the tint - but still, what brand of CAI is it, I can't tell from the engine bay pic. Thanks

So clean - I would eat off that engine.

Uhh...who mentioned anything about an automatic? The car in question is a 6speed manual. Oh wait, if you're referring to me not wanting to learn manual on the MS3; it's because of the struggles I have read from others on the forum - sorry if I implied the s4 was an auto. Also, an M3 = rwd =...

Haha that's what I thought at first, and was anticipating a "I will lower the cost by $100 to account for various shipping expenses, so please wire the money to my cousin in Kenya..." (rofl2) I've actually gotten this email TWICE while selling laptops/cell phones on craigslist etc. lol I know...

The car is in storage locally, but if you refer to my original post, the seller and the keys for storage/the car itself are with him, in the UK. :S

The title is in the car, and I've tried to get the VIN which he says he doesn't have with him - but as suggested above, I am not going to go through with this unless he can provide me with the VIN, License plate # or something else which proves the car is his, and his to sell. I agree there is...

Wow, an escrow service is exactly what we need. I think it would protect both parties against fraud. Send payment to agency, confirm payment, he sends keys, I confirm receiving them, then he gets payed. Another questions is regarding transfer of ownership. I've never bought a car via private...

Thanks for the help so far! Basically the "longer" story is that he and his broter moved to canada but when his bro was killed in a motorcycle accident he moved back home quickly. No other family, and no use for a left hand drive car in England! Good point about paypal, ill look into their...

You're all going to hate me - but rather than an MS3, I've decided to purchase an Audi S4. Reasons are many, but include: quattro AWD for the 1/2 year of snow here in Canada, the raw 300+ hp of the V8, sedan vs hatch, as well as not wanting to learn to drive a stick on the MS3 haha. Putting...

I'm 22 and in a similar situation as the O.P; looking to potentially buy an MS3...and even with 6 years of (flawless) driving experience, I am now second guessing if I want to learn stick on this car. Take it from someone who has been in a similar situation - I drove a P.O.S '92 Chevy Lumina...

Try clicking the button labeled ' "+ ' right beside the quote button. Select multiple message this way, then on the last quote you want to select, just hit the "quote" button. This should open a new page with the multiple quotes ready to go. And are there any more 08's still for sale? Do you...

Hmmm maybe I overlooked a new MS3 too quickly. $29,000 - $2,500 - trade in = ~23,000. That extra few bucks might be worth it for it have no km and being 2 years newer. (Although the mods on that used 07 are Exactly what I would do). I did a quick search and found the US rebate - do you have a...

+1 for the two GT-R's posted!

And I love hearin' from Americans who think all Canadians talk like people from rural Newfoundland (canada) (lol) Thanks for the advice - I had asked about this, and they are "still looking into" if the motor mounts were changed, oil change records, what octane used etc. I can assume whoever...

Are the prices really that different between the US and up here? Supply is also super limited - there are only 3 used MS3's for sale in the whole province, and maybe 8-10 in the whole country (according to auto trader). The other 2 for sale in Ontario are also 07's, and cost about 3K more, but...

Sorry boss, I usually convert all my numbers since most members on here are from down south. 07 MS3 has 25,000miles and would cost ~$18,500 USD. As far as an 09, MSRP is $28,000 USD. Now that I think of it, isn't this the perfect time to get an 09 for cheap before the new '10 comes out? I've...

Thanks for the reply! Just to clarify, I would be paying cash for the car and not financing. Haha I clearly don't need any convincing, but the girlfriend sure does! She has elaborate long-term real estate plans for what we should do with our money. (Don't get me started on That...haha)

(bump) Any help guys?
