New MS3

[ataraxia]

Picked up my new car on Saturday-a silver 2008 MS3 with 21 miles on it. It was in a warehouse storage facility of a dealership. They had five left and I got a great deal on mine.

I'm looking forward to learning how to properly mod this car...the possibilities seem to be endless.

I've already planned out the stereo system and the intake mods (three or so months down the road once I'm comfortable with the car). The dealership won't hassle me over intake mods-I talked to the service manager about it. That's all I have planned out at this point.

The threads have been interesting to read and helpful at finding the many parts for the car.

See you in the threads!

Welcome to the boards. And congratulations on getting the greatest possible bang for your buck.

Welcome, the modding was the same for me, but then as soon as I put on a Intake, the idea of just doing that went out the window lol.

Welcome and glad to see you got the fastest color and year. No sense in wasting your time on those other colors...

Congrats and welcome. A dealer with unsold 08s left thats kind of strange.

No doubt. 5 MS3 just sitting around in storage? that's nuts. can't make $ unless you move em. Hey- bad for the dealer, good for you. Enjoy the car, it's a blast! (drive2)

I feel like I'm in such a minority with 0 mods after almost a year.

I have a 2002 Nissan Maxima SE that's being sold next week. It was a great car but it doesn't hold a candle to the Speed, which is far more comfortable to drive and handles a lot better (even with suspension mods on the Maxima).

I almost hate to admit it-I originally wanted a black or grey car but they sold two days before I made it to the dealership. Once I started looking at the silver, I knew it would be the best color...I'm glad I got the silver-the other two would be a b**** to keep clean.
