WoW! a 2003 black mp3 with turbo!

[gapeachsp5]

Ummm...yeah....he lists it as both an MP3 and a 2003.5 Mazdaspeed. hmmm...

Is he on the forum?

This looks fishy because another Mazdaspeed with the same pictures is listed as 200 miles away from me. The one I posted is 36 miles away. (The one 200 miles away doesn't call it an mp3 or a 2003.5 msp.)

And I just realized neither are in GA...oops...posted in the wrong section I guess....

Well if it is legit, that is a hell of a deal.

hmmm.....

 

[Protege52003]

MP3, MSP.....????? He might be a little confused. Looks nice though!

 

[BradC]

Has an FMIC in the front pic, lists GT28RS but motor shot shows stock heatshield and IC pipes to SMIC (stock ic?)

 

[RallyeRedSi]

in one the engine pictures it lookes like he has the pipe connection to the SMIC but he has a FMIC???

 

[project_msp]

that guys lives around me! i wonder if he got all the parts that were suppose to go on my car

 

[gapeachsp5]

I think the first one I posted is bs. It's not really clear, but the license plate does not look like an Alabama tag to me. The second one is from Jacksonville, but I'm not sure what a FL tag looks like.

If y'all look at both links, they have the exact same pictures.

Definitely some funny business going on here. Compare the description to the in the auction in this thread:

ebay link

Also, note the sticker on the window in the gauge shot isn't there in the fmic shot.

Edit: Of course there may be that many MAM motors around, just seems awfully similar, the rest of the decsriptions look similar, too, but different parts used. (shrug)

Check the odometer in the first ad. 37xxx on it. The ad says 25xxx. That's a mighty big difference for someone not to catch when entering the ad.

Very fishy..
