I didn't want to have to do this but I bought a new car! Its a dark green 1995 Mazda Mx-6 LS (V6 2.5 liter wooohooo) Next I will be selling the Celica...I hate to do it but I need to get rid of my car payments! Its a really good feeling to buy a car in full & own it right away *omg* No more car payments for amy biggrin.gif Freeeedom

Anyway I just picked it up tonight...so I don't have any pics but here is what it looks like. (I hope the Mx-6 community is as cool as my 6gc family):

i like the looks of those cars. the only thing is i think they shoulda made it a hatch. it would have really sweet curves as a hatch.
also are the wheels interchangable? those chrome wheels would look sweet on it!
sorry to say but i don't think any other community is as cool as the 6gc community.

Yeah, my brother owned one a while back and had to replace like two transmissions. Hopefully you got one that with a good repair record and has been maintained.

I agree with Zach on this one. The MX-6 is basically the same setup as the Ford Probe GT with different body paneling, and they are a bitch to work on. Fast though, especially compared to the Celica, and there is a lot you can do to the motor to make it even faster if you so desire.

yeah my room mate had a probe, she loved it. Oh & I have a free mechanic so really if anything happens he can fix it for free. But he checked it out before I bought it & so far so good!

Ill get pics up... just havent had time to do that stuff yet. Last night I had my mechanic friend install a pioneer cd player for me (since it only had a tape player & radio before lol)

Coomer Too!?? Dang Im behind around here, I had no idea! Its very sad. But if I win the lottery with in the next few weeks then...Ill keep the Celi! Trust me I dont want to see it go! But I doubt that will happen.... grrr

Here are a couple cell phone shots of the mx6, the only thing helping me feel better about this whole car situation is knowing I have a new car to play w/ & make my own. The poor thing is so dang stock! It needs some TLC for sure. I cant wait to put my 17's from the celi on it

needs new hood as u can see but for $1500 im not complaining. (btw its pretty quick biggrin.gif)
