& just like that, car is gone again. Sold it on Saturday for nice $2,500ish profit. I did put up some WTB ads for a big turbo MS6, though. Maybe I'll find a clean one priced right. Couple guys already tried to sell me theirs for over $15k hahahaha these cars are, sadly, not worth near that.

Slightly off topic... I owned a first gen Ms3 back in 08-09... and by god that was the worst car i've ever owned in my life.
1) Unholy torque steer 2) massive traction problems 3) unreliable motor that was known to have rods blow like no tomorrow 4) 0 tuning potential at the time Granted I assume the speed6 doesn't have problems 1 or 2... but man I hated my Ms3. |

Well back when they first came out, yeah there was very few aftermarket support, let alone tuners.

From what I recall that's completely untrue? I remember COBB, Corksport, and CP-E (amongst others) coming out with stuff ASAP. I was following along closely on the forums as I was trying to get into an MS3 or MS6, but just couldn't make the financials work as I was still paying off my Mazdaspeed Protégé.

2) The so called GTI club somehow magically doesn't deal with TQ steer. how? Its a well designed fwd car with a proper steering and front suspension geometry setup. |

I think that if you're looking for limited torque steer, the CTR and Focus RS are the best. The GTI is decent, but not nearly as nice as those two.
