I'm new and I'm interested in purchasing an MP5 soon. I currently have a modded 92 TSi FWD, and an Escort Wagon. I'm looking to replace the wagon with a better DD. I like the looks of the MP5, plus I heard they handle well, have decent power, and are very reliable. From what I gathered from this site they run about a low 16sec 1/4, but I'm also looking for more tech info, like motor size, hp #s and various year to year model changes. If you guys could list some more sites I'd appreciate it. That and some info about aftermarket products. I've read about things like JDM cams, headers, and so fourth. I'm not looking to build the s*** out of the car, but just add a few more HP maily because I have poor self control when it comes to not modifying cars. Any additional info you could give a MP5 n00b would also be apprecited.

Thanks.

Additonal Info:Test drive it as that will most likey cinche the deal on buying it. They are extremely fun little cars to buy.
There was a top auto reviewer who wrote once about it, stating that despite the cars they review that alot of them either bought a P5 for personal use or were seriousely considering it. I still get a kick out of driving it, after almost 3years and normally I don't like to keep a car that long. Though I'm looking at getting another car I'm still hesitant on getting rid of the ole P5.

IT was only sold for 2 years and there were no major difference.

Thanks for the link man. It appears all that they all rock 130hp, which is decent. And their is even a Thermal cat back available. (rockon) I have Themal on my Talon and it's the shizz. Expencive though.


EDIT: And whats with the forum reading from bottom to top? (confused)
