3 years and I still enjoy it. I plan on keeping my car till I die.

Something about the look makes it stand out from other cars to me, as well as the handling and feedback. If I had my salary now back in 2003 I would have bought a spicy though

I agree that the looks are what mostly got my attention.. Its pretty sad when a car that you get from a junkyard that is 12 yrs older and has over 3 times as many miles is more reliable than a car that is only 4 yrs old and has 45k on it and that you spent 14k on..

I spent 300 on my galant vr4 to get it from a junkyard not running.. 3 months later I got it running, 3 months (these arent consistent working days on it) after that I finally had the funds to get it running and driving.. Drove it/beat the hell out of it for ~1 month and then the coil pack went bad and I sold it..

if i was to keep it.. be sure i would forge when it goes boom..

i just might still keep it but not sure yet... even though im modding it still

hey if you ever see a hard pipe (cold side) go by, im taker btw

everyone is talking like the car is made of glass or something.

Like the saying goes, 'If a frog had a glass ass.. He'd bust it everytime..'

Well that actually doesnt make any sense with the MSP, but if you drive it hard, expect it to break..

Which Im about to make its own savings account for it when it decides to break..

I can honestly say it would be a 50/50 split on weather or not I'd buy it again. If it didn't look as good and handle as good as it does, I def wouldn't buy again. Its a real downer when the car has only ran great maybe 20 percent of the 4 years I've had it.

 

[BOOSTR]

No doubt, I'd buy one again. 64,400 miles and no real problems. Doesn't burn oil or make engine noise, original clutch and transmission. Radio died, car had to be reflashed, bushings replaced, and a torn side mount have been my only problems.

Are these stock ones that are breaking when driven hard or modified ones?

[mhrebin]

im guessing mostly stock with a few upgrades. up boost w/ stock internals is bad news.lol
