LOL I love the cadillac commerical where the chick says that. Makes me laugh everytime. And I know all about the weather after washing the car. It usually snows the day after I get all the salt and nastiness off of it. I just drove the car today.. but yesterday I got a set of Eibach Sportlines for a pretty good deal. Getting things in order to install in the spring.
its inevitable, clean your car and mother nature will find a way to make it dirty again ASAP
The guitar track to that commercial is "Stars" by HUM. Just a random music fact.
BTW, Jbiiird, I am probably going to buy another TMIC hahaha. The car isn't the same without it.

This thread is for positive change... like new mods. I don't think ripping off the Zoom-Zoom sticker is THAT kind of mod. (rlaugh)
j/k
If I hadn't given mine away o'er 2 yrs ago I'd send you a new one, but alas..... The poor girl (Velo Red 3i) just had to have it!! What can I say?
'Sides, Mazda sent me two white stickers for my white car. (spin)

Got my second oil change today. Took almost 3 hours just like the first time. not going through that again. Waiting for my test pipe to get here but today I am going to fix the cowl rattle. Its been driving me nuts! The dealer told me they did not have time to look at it. They are minus one service customer.
Dayum!! 3 hrs to change the oil and they didn't have time to check the cowl rattle, a now known issue w/some Speeds? And I thought (know) my stealership was bad.
I mounted my ETS 3.5 today. Easy, and drove her a bit I am quite happy. No data logging yet. Just wanted off kitchen table! Correction: Mounted IC on vehicle. And drove the CAR a bit, and waited for the ups truck some more. They deliver up till like 500 oclock right!?

Hit the dealer today for an oil change - took 6 quarts of Castrol 5w 30.
Then put it up on ramps, pulled the bottom cover and inspected the powertrain for any signs of leakage or seepage - thankfully I found none. I was really surprised at how pristine the bottom of the car was even after 28k miles.
Then I jacked up the tranny, pulled battery box (cleaned it and the battery of dust)and checked the tranny mount torque. My tq wrench clicked at 114 ft/lbs - very happy. I still tightened it to 119ft/lbs for added safety. I also visually inspected the rubber on both mounts (rear and tranny)for any signs of excessive wear - didn't see any obvious problems.

Well as of yesterday we might not have our 3 any more. Will have pictures up sometime, but it will be close if not totalled. High speed tee bone on the passenger's side. My wife's car, she was driving and thank goodness nobody especially her was hurt. The car did it's job in the situation.
