new member from Australia

Post by tumble »

Hi!

New mx-3 owner from Wollongong, Australia. Really enjoying having a beautiful small car at last, after previously owning muscle cars that handled like soggy cardboard.

I've got a stock 1996 mx-3 (well, strictly speaking a stock Australian model Eunos 30X). Here it is. Not planning to do any work on it in the short term. Eventually I might go for an engine swap.

Thank you! I'm not very good at car photos, so so far I've only got a few. They're at http://non-human.people.xeny.net/indexe ... 0Cars.html

Yeah. Muscle cars: great for straight lines uphill. MX-3s: great for corners and shallow slopes. One day I'll be rich and get a 911 and have the best of both worlds! In the meantime I'm very happy with my MX-3.
