What have you done to your P5 today?

At some point between safely driving home after dark last night and getting up this morning to go to work, both of my low-beam headlights burned out (braindead

I know these Proteges are known for going through headlights like Taco Bell through a colon, but is both at the same time not unusual? I may have to electrical engineer some s*** together before I put in the new pair.

dam that sucks man good luck
 
Mine went 50/50 with me as well, but it was only 2k. Are you picking up your school tab? Those are pretty generous parents, msps still go for a pretty penny.

The check from the P5 was 6700 and the MSP was 6300, the market is down the pennies don't have to be very pretty anymore for an 8 year old car.
 
Your parents never bought you your first car?

I had 3 cars before I could drive one on the road. Had an 83 Accord... paid $50 for it and tinkered on it. Tranny was bum, so I sold it. Bought an 84 Dodge Ram 4x4. Needed an engine, so I bought a 79 Dodge Aspen parts car to get the truck up and running. Needed more money than I had, so I sold all of those. Then bought an 83 VW Rabbit Diesel for $350 and drove that for 2.5 years when I got my license.

Congrats on the MSP. Don't ruin it. ;)
 
I <3 my P5.

I just can't wait to drive the thing. As soon as I got my P5 and came to M247.com I knew I wanted all the MSP parts on my P5 so I took a shortcut in a way.

I haven't had ANY Zoom Zoom since April. :(

I wired up my oil pressure gauge and sender in my ForceFed cluster surround. I'm waiting for my boost gauge to come in.

I might go from a 5mm spacer to a 3mm spacer so I don't rub in the rear. Would anyone consider buying my 5mm ones?

- KN short ram intake
- MAZDASpeed exhaust (axelback)
- Adjustable SwayBar endlinks
- KYB GR2s
- Fog Light overlays (yellow)
- Removed (capped) luggage racks
- Drilled/Slotted Rotors w/ Ceramic pads
- Billet aluminum shift knob

. . . I was in the garage awhile but man, black and white difference. Theres a few more things on the list that need to be done (rims, tint, stereo, front lip) but all in all im super happy with this car!
