[nate0123]

[Dexter]

man... i'm hoping all i gotta pay is jus 16-17k for the whole thing...even after the trade... that i don't mind... i can afford it and i'll be happy... i don't care if someone 2 hours from my house has it for 1 or 2k less... i rather pay a lil more and stay with this one... i know it sounds stupid, but i jus can't find one with the same color and s***... i want the spicy orange... thats all, and i found one...so ima stick with it until i get a great deal...

wat? how do yall know that??? it doesn't look like it...

 

[nate0123]

wat are u talkin bout???

all Mazdaspeed Proteges came with white gauges

we're telling you someone has swapped out the gauge cluster with a Protege DX / LX (so it reads the mileage from the donor car and NOT THE MSP it is in)

the car itself could have 80k on it for all you know

i already ran it...

 

[Dexter]

wat are u talkin bout???

Mazdaspeeds come with silver faced gauge cluster, with "Mazdaspeed" logo on tachometer face...

you have what appear to be LX gauges...meaning that previous owner broke his cluster or did something to it or sold it or whatever, but who knows what else has been modded..

Is this anyones car on here, maybe?

 

[nate0123]

yea silver gauges, that's it

def. not black

 

[Dexter]

Oy, you know what, fine, whatever, I'm done trying to help.

All MSP's came with Silver and the word MAZDASPEED on the Tach.

That is ******* CarFax.

We are Mazda Owners. I have Lived MAZDA since 2002 and I/we are telling you that the Speedo assembley has been swapped in that car.

(pissed) Now Are You Afraid of that car?

(pissed) Now Are You Afraid of that car?

no... cuz carfax states everything that has happened... and it looks very legit...nothing modified... u can change clusters all u want, the computer has a memory that keeps the odometer in place... all OBD II cars have it... so i'm not worried...

Mileage Consistency Check:

CARFAX found no inconsistent odometer readings in the mileage history of this 2003 MAZDA SPEED PROTEGE (JM1BJ227030641438).


Date: Mileage:
03/06/2003 165
07/16/2003 9,017
10/28/2003 15,627
03/31/2004 20,679
07/06/2004 23,712

edit: so in one year, they drove over 13k miles... its no big deal...

My Bud Swapped so he could have a tach on his base model and the Odometer is stored in the cluster.

...nothing modified...

(deadhorse

CLEARLY it HAS been modified.

Guys, just let him buy the car, whatever...
