Well the people that have been here for a long time know me, but I sold my MP3 and got a supercharged SI but i broke down and drove an MSP this past weekend. Its not as fast as my SI but is still nice. I drove the yellow one, and and man I wish they would break down and put cruise on the car. The dealership is going to call me later this week to see what I want to do.
My Si is in the shop getting a new body kit, fenders, wheels. Once I get that out Im going to sell the car. So I might be back but
Who has the Fastest MSP?

OrangeMSP has the first turbo'd MSP..


:wtf: I know what you mean to say though. :D

Yes, Orange MSP has an upgraded turbo (T3/4), with a new IC, and hard pipes. There was someone on here that ran a 13.8 in the 1/4 too in an MSP so the Proteges are stepping up to the plate.

why are you selling the SI if youre putting all that stuff on it?

it raises the street value crazy like. dealers won't pay jack for a modded car, but some 17 yo kid will give top dollar.

ahh now i understand...
 
Well I have already purchased the body kit and wheels, and I believe that I can make a profit on the Civic, and then I can get comfortable into MSP. The only thing that is going to suck is going from cruise and a Sun roof to nothing.....
 
Hmm

There is that one home boy in the forum that had a damn nice professionally installed sunroof added to his MSP.
It looked factory. As for the cruise? Well that is a different story.
I guess I'm happy with my MSP even with "nothing."
;)
 
No Sunroof..No Cruise....No problemo.

I gave up all of that when I traded my '99 SE Limited. I'm not missing it that bad. My wife's ES has those fine options, so what the hell.
 
I gave up sunroof and cruise as well. I've probably used cruise about 3 times total from all my previous cars ( I hate it, don't see a use for it) and I thought I'd miss the moonroof, but I don't really. Only thing I do miss is how the sunroof improves the look of the car from outside. I don't miss using it at all. I also don't miss the squeaks they all have and the coldness in the winter, and a hot sun on top of my head in the summer.
 
didnt mean for you all to take that personal, instead of "NOTHING" i should have put without it, but you have to rememeber that i had a MP3 before most of you. So i know what it is like to not have Speed Control, I travel alot. I can always live without it, its just something I do perfer.
 
nothing personal here ?

But, honestly, why you traded your MP3 for that Civic....I think you were nuts. Nice car, but I traded a Civic for my mp3. Granted, mine wasn't supercharged ( Must be nice) but I could never go back to a civic again.

Come back to Mazda buddy. We miss you ! I still got pics of your MP3 believe it or not. They were nice shots.
