I am going to Houston Friday to pick up my new ride. It is a 03.5 Ti Gray MSP. I don't know the # on it yet but will list when I get it. I am very excited about it. I am coming over from a JRSC miata that I had to let go because as of 6/1 I am a father. My wife and I had a beutiful baby girl we nammed Emma.

So I wanted to get a sporty four door car to replace it and the MSP was on the top of my list. after reading all the articles about it and the reviews I wanted one.
well I have been watching and waiting for the right deal to come along and this is what I got. A dealer in houston listed it on ebay with no bidding interest. I called after the auction and have been haggling for the past few weeks. The car is an 03.5 Ti MSP with only 13360 miles on it. It has all the OEM goodies on it plus the following already done for me: FMIC, Injen CAI, mandrel SS TBE, Apex Turbo Timer, Auto meter boost and Pyro gauges, carbon fiber front splitter, and full coilovers with eibach springs.
Well I got it for $14,750 out the door price. A little more than I was wanting to spend but with all the mods I figure I am coming out way ahead.
The guy that had it before traded it in on an STI at a subie dealer in houston. he may have been a member here. The dealer said someone mentioned he was a regular at the houston hangouts and he hung with a spicy MSP and they were known as the speed twins. Anyone know him?
anyway here is some pics of my new ride.
