2003.5.... I'm dissapointed...

[Familia323]

damn, thought I'd try. yeah I have to agree, that new front lip is so much nicer than the Autoexe one. And yes Porsche has to be my favorite car manufacturer of all time!

at first i hated the new look...but i kinda like it now.....but i still like the 2003 better and wish the 2003.5 had stock fog's

i test drove the 2003 and the 2003.5. They drove exactly the same, so to me it just came down to which looked better.

I opted for the 3.5 and have no regrets about it.

Newf: What is the big delay in you getting your new car? That is weird. You could have come to the states, by now, and bought one!! Is their no availability at all where you live?

I had a yellow one offered to me last Monday. But I don't want yellow.....although I do like it, I want titanium more.

There are no titanium ones ready in Canada yet that i know of. Heck, there are even orange ones sitting at the ports in BC still!

Besides, my mp3 hasn't sold yet, and that's a problem. Lots of people want it, but they all say they'll call me when they get some money together....that's no good to me

later buddy.

Understand! Yeah; I have a friend here that has a yellow MP3. It looks nice, but I think after a short time, I would grow tired of the yellow personally. I like it better than the Orange Mica, however. I guess; that is my age showing. Ha! The Titanium is gorgeous.

 

[Newf]

I just don't want to take care of yellow. You see so much on it, you should see yellow in the middle of winter here.....gets so dirty so quick, similar to orange in that respect.

I love yellow, although it is a little flashy for me, and I'm getting annoyed with having a car that stands out so much. Getting attention like that isn't always all good. Great for finding the car at the mall though Just look for the bright car with all the people walking around it....still happens with my mp3.


blue is by far the easiest color I've had to take care of. I hope the titanium is similar.

I spent pretty much all last night just driving around. I just can't get enough fo this car. Now I just need to figure out how to program the kenwood deck.

Yep!!! (thumb) Very, very sharp!!!

I don't get why everyone has a lazy left foot? The heavier the clutch the more fun. Most of the HD clutches I've driven basically pop your foot right back to where you need to be to engage the clutch. After driving with one of those for a while, every other clutch feels like the pedal isnt going to come back up. Oh well, must just be me. I like em.

Oh and Newf. you don't like the front lip on the new MSP?(2003.5) I'll sure as hell buy it then.. Or am I confused?

Do you get the same feeling as me going from a "real" clutch to one of these- it feels like you are going to put your foot through the floor when you push the clutch down it is so easy ...

As far as the clutch being light; I don't know. I came from a Nissan Sentra SE Limited. 'Feels about the same to me. Feels good.

The Sparco shifter: At one time; I thought I might change it to one of those carbon fiber models. But now; I have had a change of heart. I really like it. It's unique. It feels good. And; it's simply damned good looking! Same for the pedals. I love that look!
