Sup everyone! I picked up my first ever new car on Sunday - a black 2010 MS3. I was really just shopping for a 3 hatchback but the dealer gave me a great deal I couldn't refuse - $100 over invoice with 6% financing.

Love it so far! I've had faster cars before, and more practical cars - but none that provide such an awesome balance of both. My only mod for now will be HID's- might do a SRI and full exhaust at some point in the future.

Welcome!! Love the black. Got any mods planned?

Nothing too serious since it's my dd. I'll probably start with some HID's and your shifter plate, maybe a SRI and exhaust down the road.

Sounds like a good plan. I'd save your money on the exhaust, you're not going to gaining anything by doing it. If you're looking for a nice tone remove the resonator. The SRI I would strongly recommend and the shift plate of course.

Was this at Byers?! I have to know.

I couldn't get them to budge a CENT under MSRP when I grabbed mine in September. Then again they had just got their first MS3's in that week, but still...

BTW...look for the DDM HIDs. I picked some up for my Speed3 and they work perfectly with the stock projectors. I couldn't be happier with them, and all for under $100.

Yep, Byers. I printed out the invoice price from Edmunds, brought it in, and said "If you can get me close to this number I'll sign today". Guy came back after talking with his manager and he was like "We can do $100 over MSRP" - no haggling whatsoever
