What I like about this site...

Postby trader » Mon Dec 02, 2013 5:52 pm

Hi all ...I searched for a tps recently and a member pops up with one and mails it out to me for free (comes with pedigree from scooter). It's not the first time I've had such good rapport and the generosity of fellow Mx5ers never ceases to amaze me!
A pleasure to be a part of the crowd!

Unless you decide that putting neons on your car is a good thing.

Then we will hate you for days.

I think you'll find 16s are okay with 50% of members. Although 15s are the preferred option. :lol:

Don't even THINK about asking what engine oil to use.

You may found some people knows a lot about car and they are being arrogant. But you are always welcome to ask any question if you are not sure. Having neon lights on your car is your own personal taste, everyone would love to make their car more stand out when its compare with others, just make sure it is legal in your state. It is ok to have 17" wheels as long as you are comfortable with. However, you also need to know all the mod that you might have done or going to do is your personal choice, once you made a mistake during the process or after the result is not what you want. You could simply ask for help, all you need is a big heart and prepare that people might give you bad feeling just because they are not into your mod. Most of all, I believed everyone joined this site for the same reason - WE LOVE OUR MX5.

and try to avoid raising the SP vs SE vs NC debate.
Obviously the SE is the car to get, the arguments come when trying to determine 2nd place.....
*runs and hides*
:mrgreen:


And yes trader, it is good to be part of the crowd.
This community really is like a family. There is the crazy Wuncle :shock: , the senile Mr Grandfather :P , the rambunctious nitro-nephew :mrgreen: and the brothers/sisters that always have your back.
And somewhere, over far far west, there is someone slaving in the kitchen, keeping the home fires burning......
Oh yeah, he has a SE too.... :mrgreen:

As far as opinions go though, black rims seem to be the exception, you either love them or hate them and most people accept that since they're purely aesthetic.

Then theres the bunch that think any modification other than wheels and seat covers is a mortal sin and will despise you from a far.
