    WRX or Mazdaspeed3

    In your maxima/ms3 thread you mentioned freeing up money by buying an ms3. There is no way you will get your payment to 320 without a sizeable down payment and you wont save anything at all most likely. Especially if you are underwater on the max. Also if you are at all concerned about...

    My new VW Jetta TDI

    Thank you, Sir! Great, I have a new bottle of QID, but it's been so long since I used it I forgot if it was shiny or matte. Definitely going for matte. I do remeber how great it makes the interior smell. Never had the pleasure of trying Duragloss anything unfortunately. I am loving the stereo...

    My new VW Jetta TDI

    I polished it with my Griot's DA using a white CCS Pad, and Optimum Spray Polish, the used my free sample of Blackfire Wet Diamond. I used some TR-3 Resin Glaze on the wheels. I was surprised how little the white pad cut, it did leave some light straight line swirls (from the dealership's...

    Oakes - Detailed: 2001 Corvette Z06 - 800+ HP

    Nice work as always. What a nice looking vette. I wonder if that is the car I used to watch pull out of PSU Brandywine and go up to 6th gear.

    Mazdaspeed3 or Nissan Maxima

    You can buy the oem pads and aftermarket pads online for less, but they are $280 for the front pads and $175 for the front rotors. So about $455 + installation. I.e. rosenthal mazda has them for $130 rotors, $185 pads. Parts are expensive on this car, might as well buy a classic porsche!! OEM...

    Mazdaspeed3 or Nissan Maxima

    Don't buy an ms3- mine is currently sitting with a messed up engine. The turbo spat oil everywhere and in may need a new engine.
