Just picked up my new MP5!

[dude800]

Hello friends,
I just picked up my brand new p5. After weeks of perusing this site, I've finally decided to take the plunge.

I've got 5sp, silver, leather, abs, 6cd/moonroof, roofrack and polished alloys. paid 16,500 via carsdirect.

I must say that I am VERY happy with the purchase. I've driven Hondas, Acuras and VWs, and I am pleasantly surprised at how nice Mazda feels. Everytime I make a turn, it brings a smile to my face. manual transmission feels perfect and i love the way it looks. Now i just need to figure out how to take out the front piece of the roof rack--it's sooo loud with the roof open. Besides, that, no real complaints.

congrats.

taking off the roof rack is easy as pie. The dealer should have given you instructions... check your glove compartment, and make sure they gave you the plastic filler pieces (in your trunk most likley)

Enjoy.

Here are the instructions you request.

EDIT: Damn, that shows full removal, well , maybe you want to do that also.

hey dude...and Welcome to our happy little corner of the net, and to our Club. There are TWO BIG fridge'S in the corner with anything you can think of in them...help yourself...of course only take what you can LEGALLY have. (stash)

make yourself at home on one of the big fluffy couches, kick your shoes off, put your feet up on one of the tables, yes we are allowed to do that, mom don't care....and take it easy.

oh...btw....every once in a while a food fight breaks out...so you may not want to wear nice clothes here.

Welcome!! (stash)

Cool, you picked up the same car that I did but only I have Midnight Blue and paid a little more 5 1/2 weeks ago. Good deal! Welcome.
