(omg)(omg)(omg)
I am speechless. How? Why? Who? WHY??? (uhm) (uhm) (uhm) (gun)
I shed a tear when I saw this. Poor poor MP3. And to call it a "custom paint job"? It looks like it was painted on with a spray can. Someone save this car and buy it. New paint, wheels, and lights, and she might even pull through.

Apparently the MP3 has a 1.8L engine...

Is it me or does the back look a little lower than the front as well? Regardless, can you say "salvage title"? I really like the "nitros express setup", whatever that is. And it really does look like it was painted with a spray can, by somebody who really sucks at it too. lol

It states 1.8L about 3 times and 2.0L once. Just goes to show the brains the person has who is selling this. Hopefully no one buys this and leaves it as is.

I can do you one better. There is a laser blue MP3 in my area that delivers pizzas. Complete with the delivery top thing on the roof.

Yikes, you might have more luck selling it if it was not painted like a circus.. Plus.. the FS engine is a 2.0L not a 1.8L

I'm not sure it was always like that, but anyone notice that the starting bid was higher then the "buy it now" price? And of course, noone bought this atrocity...
ZZZOOM!

I always try to be open minded. Maybe the owner was afraid of people not seeing the vehicle. Maybe emergency vehicles should adopt those graphics and they would not need sirens.

wow. i would buy this car and paint it with spray paint, buy a used msp turbo setup for $1500 and be laughing at the track for 2/3 the price of a msp. wow I cant believe how much money a msp and mp3 used to be worth, I bet most still owe more then what the seller is asking. 5500 + 1500 = 7g mp3/msp. sell those shit rims and replace with stockers with good tires and you are doing good 2.

I think everyone would be laughing at you at the track if you did that. You would still have a horrible paint job, ugly ass wheels, and a fading interior. You could paint it flat black, but that works for CHEAP track-only cars (ie civic/integra). And the MP3/MSP monstrosity would still be SLOWWWW.
The only hope for this guy is to part out the whole car. People would repaint there parts anyway, and he would defiantly get more money then what he can get for the car as a whole.
I am still shocked how a can of paint, set of wheels, the interior,and altenzas can destroy a MP3 so quickly. (chair)

That's the way it's supposed to be...why would they make the "buy it now" price LOWER than the starting bid....that would make no sense.
