I was at the drag strip awhile back and a guy had one of those that he swapped a 4g63 and a massive turbo into. He ran low 12’s in the thing. It is definitely a very ugly car, though.

The prince! I never get tired of watching his edits, especially the old Mindgame sections. Those were the days!

Jesus. I had a similar one to that. I do IT for a race team, so the setup is completely off the wall and it’s a whole travelling network. Anyway, each of the timing stands we have in pit lane has its own networking equipment, routers, switches, etc. I kept having random network drops on one of the stands and it was…

HAHA, 1800 DOLLARS, ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME. CP all the way. I could pick up a geo metro on craigslist for under 1000 dollars, rebuild it, pull all nicer condition interior pieces, slowly work my way to restoring paint, and then focus on body work. PLUS one time my cousin's friend said he found an e30 on…

The one with his daughter's YSL shirt on?

I'm not sure either. I'm guessing methanol injection for the individual throttle bodies?

Put me down for jokerman and papyrus

That also reminds me of a conversation I heard between a friend and a lady

I lay awake at night and wonder if that thing ever got cleaned well. That being said it is effing hilarious, his reaction

The rear motor mount is a great upgrade. I drove a buddy's gen 1 speed3 the other day and was shocked at how much more rigid mine feels. You'll love the feel of it.

A fellow speed3 owner! Any mods done to yours?

I do like the black pearl but going from a white car to black is ridiculous with the water spots. I did the cobb intake as well, a James Barone Racing rear motor mount, and I've painted the wheels graphite with blue calipers. They're great cars, the bang for the buck is amazing for them.

Nice choice! I have a black pearl 2012 speed3. Any mods done to yours?

Wow.

These cars can be picked up easily for less than $3500. If you can't afford that, then you most likely can't afford any kind of a car.

You might be new to cars, but you can pick up an e30 BMW for very cheap.

What would that give you? A little bit of satisfaction by being a passive aggressive prick to someone who wants to protect their car?

When I graduated college I had a brief stint as a porter at a BMW dealership. The people that came in to this dealership really didn't know much about their cars, let alone what color it was or what model it was. About 10 times a day, we would get someone coming in because their tire pressure light was on and they…

I actually talked to a dude who used to be a porter at the dealership that thing came in to. He said the thing was so thick with house paint that it was spongy and every time it came in it looked different. Said the dude did bare minimum maintenance, then went and got a blower put in. He also said that the guy…

I got the Weather Tech mats and a James Barone Racing rear motor mount on the way for my Mazdaspeed3. Really excited to test the mats out. Even more so for the motor mount.
