Welcome!
I used to have one of those, exact same year model and everything. I sold mine to a lady with a new baby 5~6 years ago... Brings back memories! Maybe you bought my car off of her? lol

I believe I'm the 3rd owner. I bought the car off a young couple in Langley. The guy worked for the VPD and was a car enthusiast so I had piece of mind buying from him. He said he couldn't stand driving stick from langley to downtown everyday anymore.... so I ended up getting a really good deal. |

pretty undecided to be honest. I've always had black cars, but to be honest I wouldn't mind getting away from it. I'm actually throwing white rims on my protege once the winter weather is over a done with just to get away from all the black. As for the ms3, I'm liking white, or gun metal grey. We'll see though, because I'm a huge fan of the red as well. |

merry christmas everyone. i got a snowboard rack for christmas which motivated me to get out and snap a couple of photos. car is dirty, i'm not about to go out and wash it on christmas day with this wind. i'm heading out to rack attack tomorrow to pick up a fairing to complete the package.

Welcome to the site. Just a heads up on the fairing, I picked up a 44" from Cap It in PoCo for $80+tax, in case you get quoted more from RackAttack. Also, these look pretty sexy on your car:  |

i picked up a 38" fairing and while i was surprised at how short it came from the top of windshield, i think it may be because of how far back my rack is mounted. i'm actually in the market for the integrated rack that can be found on primarily 03 model pro5's. it's been tough finding one though. mazda quoted me around $700.00 last year so i'm trying to see if i can find one at a junk yard or something. regardless though, i'm pretty happy with the width. i'm actually a member with rack attack due to my previous employment with coast mountain bus company, so i get 10% off. it came to $94 tax included. those are the ms3 rims? i'm a huge fan of them on pro5's. i think they look even better than they do on ms3's. however, i'm going to be experimenting with stances on my car. megan lowering springs were ordered today, so hopefully i'll have them on soon. that will help me decide wheel and tire sizes before i switch to coilovers and experiment with camber.

So I guess you're keeping it even if you find an MS3?

Welcome to the site, Nate! Nice looking car!
Just out of curiosity, what did you do at CMBC? I'm currently an operator with them.
