mitsubishis anyone?

Here's my 06 Evo MR. Wish I still had the Protege5 to commute 90+ miles a day to work. I'm looking to get a Mazdaspeed3 and garage this one as it is one of the rare black MRs in the last batch before the evoX comes out. Just happened to see this section in my search for MS3 info.

I did own a Mirage, does that count?

I put that car through so much hell. After 7 months of me driving it, I needed a new tranny.

Jaw-dropingly beautiful. Few cars pull off the 4 door rocket econobox like the lancer evo. You still have that Jetta?

Haha, yea. I wanted to do all that jazz to it, but it wasn't worth it. That car was a piece.

is it an SE? and evos don't like to be garaged, they like to be set free :)

Agreed, mine just sitting for a few days while i drive the p5/VW, hates me. I usally have to pull the plugs and clean them. and hold full throttle till it starts. (I have a cutsom tune and it dumps too much fuel in (full throttle cuts fuel)) the evo is a good DD just learn to stay out of boost.

and there are soooooo many times im sitting at a light next to cocky ______ (i.e. mustang, civic, F-body) that I wish I was in the evo.
 
Many are going to the evo's...haha
I'm in the band wagon, no pics but had my TB 9 SE for about 5 months.
So easy to mod(which I already have(naughty)) and so easy to blow your savings...(freak).
The TB on the pic above look like MR SE, very nice. Black is sooooo sexy.
The car is just unbelieveable-disgustingly fast.(five-0)
 
i had a 96 mirage before the msp. had plans for a 4g63 swap, but never materialized. sold the car at 180k+ miles, still ran strong. im considering buying another one and doing an evo III conversion.
 
I had a 95 Eclipse GS with really bad crankwalk, and eventually blew the motor in that. Then got a 98 Eclipse GST that was built to the heavens. Forged motor, huge turbo, caged, you name it, it had it. Fastest car Ive ever owned, besides the speed3. Parting out the GST as we speak.

Ummm.. Forged motor with a huge turbo and your speed 3 is faster? Something was definately wrong with it then.. A bolt on gst with a 16g is faster than a stock MS3..
