^^^ OH s***! The original!

One of these months I'll have the P5 clean enough to warrant some new pics. It's been so long since I've entered and I've done so many new things...

 

[fatti03msp]

Kooldino is that engine bay shot for HIN in VA, i was there and i swear that she was there lol. looks very familiar.

Look at his join date. Dana is one of the original members not to mention one of the first to take these cars (3rd Gen Proteges) to the extreme. Anyway, it's not a MSP - it's a turbo MP3. Well enough ass-kissing from myself. I've seen the car in person and it's straight up badass. Models aren't too bad either

 

[TheDirtyGoatee]

*LOOKS*

*slow clap*

That's pretty nice being one of the firsts and keeping it as clean (or better) than new. Wish mine was like that. Hell if I won the mega millions I'd send my MSP back to Japan and tell those homies to redo EVERYTHING, including paint.

Quick question (sorry to thread jack but just this once) who got the first MSP and MP3?

Close, but no cigar, sir.

HIN Philly '07.

Thanks for the kind words.

Just takes some TLC, hard work, and a little help from your friends.

Hell, you could do it better yourself right here! Glad to hear that you'd keep your car if you won the lottery though...I would too. This car is coming to my grave with me.

I'm actually not sure about that. Probably dealership owners if I had to guess.

The real question is - how many are still alive?

I almost NEVER see MP3s anymore, and when I do, they're usually blue (which is a more common color).

 

[kamon8404]

i had a yeller one about 2 years ago. had 80k when i let it go and it was still very very clean. sold it to a girl. hope she didn't wreck it.(doughpoke

 

[superskaterxes]

for the bonus 50 bucks for having a mazdaforums related sticker on your car, can this include other mazda forums besides 247?

 

[altspace]

I never see an MSP or MP3 here, nor RX-8s for that the matter. Ever since the one Mazda dealer left the island I've been alone.

 

[special--k]

I was in Cape Cod last August. I was driving my Blazing MSP.
I accually didnt even notice that there were no mazdas.
