How many came from the euro scene?
- Thread starter dichiee
- Start date
My previous was a Mercedes C230 Kompressor Sport Coupe. It was a nice car, but spent way too much time in the shop. It also sucked that Mercedes refuses to sell workshop manuals so I was stuck taking it to the dealer for everything. The dealer service department was very nice out front, expresso bar, nice service writers, great loaner cars, but they couldn't even change the oil in under two days.
Wow that sucks. Yeah euro cars are pricey but can't beat the satisfaction on those cars.
I traded my 02 S4 for the MS3. The S4 was auto and didn't want to pay for the repairs that will come in the future. I tried to find a good 6spd to trade it in but they didn't want to because of the upside down so I decided to get a car that will be cheaper and fun to drive. The S4 (stage 2) is faster than the ms3 and I miss the quattro but its all good. I'm still looking forward to get another B5 S4 w/ stage 3 but for now its all zoom zoom zoom

I've owned BMWs since 1983, when I bought a 1973 Bavaria 3.0 and performed what the Brits call a "Rolling Restoration". I've owned two Japanese vehicles: a 1979 Arrow GT 2.6(fast for its day- it even had four wheel disc brakes) and a 1993 Pathfinder SE. I bought the MS3 because I wanted something a bit different, and so far I have no regrets. That said, I'll probably always have a Bimmer in the garage.
i miss my 528e (86) and 525i (90). The 525i was my sisters after me then on to a former boss, the 528e was my first ever car and i traded it in on my protege cuz i needed something reliable for school and i miss it every day since.
The next project i get I would like to be either an '85 M5 or a 2002.

I think you're the first M3 MPS owner I've seen on these boards. What do people think of our car in Europe?
Mazda 3 MPS is underrated. Most of them prefer Seat Leon Cupra, Audi S3, Golf R32 etc. Why? Because its Japanese and they think its cheap. Even though its faster.
Also tuning this car performance-wise is almost impossible.
We have to buy stuff from America if we even can! With the high shipping and even then some shops ignore our mails totally. *ahum* pg *ahum*
Anyhow, the 3 MPS is so expensive compared to what you American guys pay for it. I'll keep driving my prote..eh 323 sedan for a long time I guess.

I wanted to buy an old Austin Mini instead of the MS3 but couldnt justify + $25k on a 25-30 year old car.
