Don't mind at all. All priced out with taxes and stuff here in NY it was about $18k, then I took the $1k the dealer offered for my MX-3.

Leaving the MX-3 behind

Well...after about 2 years of owning the MX-3, I've decided it's time to move on to a newer car.

I'm picking mine up from the dealer on Monday.

The MX-3 has been fun. This UBB has been great reading as well. Best of luck to everyone.

I just traded my MX-3 in for my Scion tC. I got $1000 for it. Mileage was at 105,000 with things in generally good condition. Will post pictures of the new tC after I pick it up on Monday.

Re: How much is your mx worth?

Franko, it's understandable that you think you should get more for your car. But think about it from a dealers perspective.

If I were going into a dealership to pick up a car, the chances of me buying a car that had already been modded would be close to nil. Why? Because I know that the car will ...

GE Advanced Materials Hardcoat: AS4700

It's what is used on all of the new polycarb lens from automakers these days. Now that school is starting, I have more free time, I might take apart my headlight and re-hardcoat them to see how it turns out.

Re: mx3 safe for trips? cross country?

Wow, I never even considered not driving my car on my road trip this year LOL. I went from Detroit to Atlanta and back to Detroit, then back to Atlanta, then to Savannah, then back to Detroit ;) No problems at all. I got my oil changed once during the trip though. Oh, I've got a V6 with 90k miles ...

Re: what would it take on my eclipse to beat a new volkswage

Re: Supercharged Ram Air Kit for MX3 info!

LOL, who wants to take this one?

Do you think that 250CFMs is a lot? Do you realize that a Vantec Tornado has a flow rate of 119CFM? It's a computer case fan...

Actually...scratch that. I've got a 'Supercharger' I'm willing to sell ya that I guarantee will move 360CFMs...some assembly required ...
