Picked up my MM yesterday for a mere $28,150. Great car! I can't believe I've reached a point in my life where I'm excited by a car with a real back seat, but ya know, life goes on.

Just wanted to say thanks to everybody that replied to my earlier posts while I was looking around your forum and thanks to Logan for running this website.

Any time I look at buying a car, a major factor for consideration is the level of aftermarket support and the activity of the user community. This car has plenty of both. I bought an SCCA Miata a while back just because it looked like a good starter Tinkertoy set and I had a blast with that car (which would fit in the trunk of my MM if I still had it.)

Looking forward to a chip, a set of gears, and lots of tire smoke...

Where's my leather jacket?

Welcome Vince.

Thank you all.

John - It's a 300A. I wasn't really interested in TC, so I figured I had a little bit more negotiating leverage with a car that's been on the lot for a few months.

I think I extracted about all I was gonna get out of any dealership.

Vince, you should have gotten the jacket with the car. My friend's dad did, after 2 or 3 months.

Vince Thanks for the prompt response. My MM was only on the lot 3 days before I test drove with 3 miles on the odometer. The dealer had only two ,(unlike most in this area ,some have up to eight in stock) one with the light flint interior. I chose the other and it also has heated seats. John :) :) :up:

Cool. Thanks very much...

I need my jacket! Got the windows tinted, got some black reflective Bob White decals, looking at the SHM front springs....

Do I need to break the car in a bit before I do the Reinhardt gear/chip deal?

Vince:

The only reason for driving the car a bit before installing the Reinhart package is that it will give you a better idea of how much the stuff improves your car! I did mine at about 1000 miles and have almost 6000 on it now...it just keeps getting better...
