What do y'all think? ROADSTAR

[Shiro]

Hi Everyone,

Just wanted to say hi! and I'm new here. I'm getting my Titanium MSP on Monday. I'm so excited. I had the PDI today and I wanted to drive it so badly.

Now on to my little dilema, I use to own a Special Edition Mazda Miata, the 2001 Burgandy one with chrome wheels. It was really cool with the liscense plate "ROADSTAR" because "ROADSTER" was taken. I'm thinking if I should use this plate when I pick up the car on Monday. So do y'all think it's funny if I had ROADSTAR on the titantium MSP? I mean it also means star of the road.

I love the smell of new Mazdas. Does anyone else notice new Mazdas have this dintinct japanese smell? Like they bottled up air from japan and when you open the door and whoosshhh!!

I've owned.
'97 MX3
'99 MX5
'01 MX5

'00 Type R (6 months and stolen)
'00 Tiburon (6 months and crashed)

i like it. "roadstar", cool!!

 

[loj68]

just one comment though......Roadstar is Yamaha's equivalent of a Harley motorcycle so many people will think it's a reference to you being in a motorcycle club or something.

Hey maybe I should go look at yamahas today!

Well thanks for the encouragement, I think I'll use it. I don't want to waste my $350 plate. I'm so glad I didn't get "ROADSTER" now.

2003.5 Titantium MSP (on Monday) GRINNING

I do have one worry about the car. How good is the alarm system? I'm paranoid because my Type-R was stolen from my driveway once. Anyone with any good theft deterrant ideas?

Brake lock?
window etching?
Shift lock?

Are those any good?

2003.5 Titantium MSP (on Monday) STILL GRINNING

The Windows are already etched from the factory. So they can be traced. If your REALLY worried about breakins, you can adjust the sensitivity on the factory alram. I am getting ready to install a secondary horn on mine.

I know what you mean about the smell ... My miata seemed to smell the same way as my protege does now. Well, not anymore, new car smell wore off
