Got a MS6 to go with the MSP

[Knox Joe]

Well I traded in my wife's Suzuki Grand Vitara on a slightly used 06 MS6 GT. The interior is the beautiful black on white leather.

Awesome car! As a whole a much nicer car than the MSP, it's a different type of car, not as edgy and not as fast as MY MSP, but it's a great tourer.

Here's some pics, before I get flamed to death for not having them.

i remember seeing this one for sale when iwas looking for a white MS6 along with the ms3 i was shopping for...

I'm not a big fan of leather interiors, but that has to be one of the nicest set-up's I've seen. Nice addition!

MS6 and a MSP? That is the exact garage I am trying to get. I am trying to convince my girlfriend she wants a MSP over an RSX. It seems to be working!

Congrats on the buy.

Yeah I know. I am the luckiest guy in the world!


I'll be honest though, the MS6 can't handle like the MSP. I took the MS6 down one of my favorite, tight, twisty, technical backroads, and it would get smoked by my MSP hands down.

I'd have to agree for the most part. I owned a 03.5 titanium as well, and it handled very sharp and quick. But I find the MS6 is better on "real" roads, meaning roads with bumps as the suspension doesn't get unsettled so easy. I miss my titanium speed sometimes but .... well not often You get spoiled by the MS6 quickly, even with a softer ride. She certainly feels heavier as well which took me a while to adjust to.

You'll find a huge difference too if you change the wheels. Those stock 18's are heavy...sticky rubber ( and noisy), wear really quick, but heavy.

Yeah on a nice sweeping road the MS6 is excellent!

Did a 50-70 pull today to test against the MSP, no chance for the MS6, but my MSP is modded pretty heavily.

Ya, thats the reason I want the gf to get the MSP .. I had a 94 Protege DX, and even with 13" wheels (yes, you read that right), it was a blast to drive. The MS6 can hold more on the skidpad, but the light tossibility of my Protege gave it a win in my book. I kind of miss that feeling, but once I hit about 10 psi that feeling goes away and is replaced with school girl giddy-ness. I love turbocharged power.

Good pickup Knox. Its a sharp looking car and that interior is sweet. How many miles on it and do you have any plans for it?

Congrats. I miss my old MSP, but wouldn't give up my MS6.

Thanks, I love the interior so much.

It has 28k miles, and I plan on keeping it stock, but everyone tell's me that it isn't possible with me, and that it is inevitable that I mod it eventually. I dunno, it's plenty fast now for my wife's car.

A nice intake, exhaust, and EMS would sure liven it up though...

Yeah, I could never give up my MSP, so I just bought the 6 too. (silly)

 

[wannabe]

congrats

 

[Knox Joe]

Okay, I am a liar. I ordered my first mod for the car.(nailbyt)

(shrug) What can I say? I need modders anonymous or something.

 

[Killer]

sweet!

 

[Knox Joe]

sweet!

I know!(alright)
