If you want a speed platform car and a miata, no brainer says MSM

 

[o0n8]

I'm stuck on the speed because of all the work I have put into the speed platform I know how to work on them and I like the community. And I like the ms6 always have. An exocet would be cool but I wamt to drive a car on the road more than just nice days

I don't think you have to worry about the community; I mean, I haven't been banned yet.

edit:
Found this guy as a possibility for me, Red 6 Hatch w/ only 64k miles.: http://www.autotrader.com/cars-for-...erId=74799&searchRadius=0&listingId=360490375

I'm a sucker for a 1st gen 6 with a MT.

step 1: part out the MS3 and sell it, unless you find someone who likes and wants what you've done to it. Keep the neon to minimize your costs.

step 2: decide what you want the car to do. While the MS6 is a lot of fun, it is not the ideal car for autox or track. Yes, it would do both but its not the best, or most fun.

- why do you want an MS6 exactly?
- what are your goals?
- why are you fixed on a speed model?

You can easily get a decent miata, put a turbo kit on it and have the same (or more) power that I have now. OR, get a miata that has a body beat to s***, buy an Exocet kit and you'll have something unique and really ******* fast.

Also, take it from me. While I love the MSP, it is expensive to maintain and use. Ideally, I'd like to sell the MSP and the truck and get an MS6 for a daily, which won't see any track or autox. I'd get another trailer for the miata and take that to the track.

I'm in agreement here. Sell the MS3 and sit for a few months. You have the neon, use it for every last penny you paid for it.

Looks pretty clean. Wonder if they'll come down on price?

I think they would come down a little, it is a MT after all. Edmunds has it at about $8500 and KBB is about $12,500.

I would see if you could get them down to 8k. One of the few MT reds with cloths seats.

Oh, is that your plan this week?

Its been the plan for a while, but I'm tired of whoring the MSP and having no serious inquiries. Can't do anything till the car is sold, next step is to take it to events, use it and have a for sale sign during breaks which is what Marc suggested.

$5?

Hey, an offer! Now make it reasonable.

$3,500 for the car alone as it sits with the MSP wheels + Star Specs, $5,500 for everything. Extra parts are negotiable.

I am not in the position to make a reasonable offer. I spent all my allowance last week (horay for gun parts).

Thanks Pablo for the recommendation for going to Backstreet.

As soon as I was on the lift, Eric asked how darty the car was over uneven roads. As I asked for zero toe at Conrads last time I had it aligned, it was at 1/4.

Camber on left rear was off a bit, and they corrected at no extra charge.

 

[Kiseliok]

Hey guys how much would you pay for a ms6 with a vented block? Also anywhere else I can look for ones for sale? insurance sites and stuff

You can have mine for 15k. Just needs tuning.
