Torque steer sounds like a party. !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! I’ve been a decent man this year, Santa. Please? I’ll even pay for new rims myself.

What’s that weird white stuff on the ground?

Imagine for a second, take all the rain you got and made it cold enough to not be rain. I present to you, snow!

I keep forgetting that generation Speed3 didn’t have the telltale hood scoop

I like it a bit more that way, to be honest. Less “grrr, boy racer testosterone look at me”, more “I’m having fun and no one is paying attention to that, which is awesome”.

Doesn’t need new rims.

I’m personally not a fan of them.

To each his own. Nice car either way.

Oh I agree, I just keep forgetting it was a thing. Probably because it’s so rare for me to see one

An MS3 has always been on my short list. Lovely color too.

*wheel nerd alert*

looks like 5zigen FN10R-c wheels, these were much lighter than OEM wheels and were popular with the autocross/track folks. I’d keep them too.

What would you say if I gifted you my $900 Accord?

Which I believe led to cooling issues in the most extreme conditions.

Hmmmm thank you for the offer, bit the jank levels from the previous owner are too high.

I own one of these in this exact color but with stock wheels. Can confirm this car is an absolute riot to drive.

I like how you think. I’m considering 3 in my area myself (southern USA). One 2011 with 31K miles for $14000, another 2011 with 81K miles for $10000 and one 2008 with 190K miles for $2000.

I’ve never driven a Speed3, but I drove an ‘08 3 sedan with the 2.3 for a couple weeks and it was a really nice place to be. Also felt like a pretty tight and responsive chassis, and lovely steering feel compared to other modern cars I’ve driven.

Unfortunately, I don’t have enough cash to grab it.

Probably for the best, from how I have seen these age in Quebec anyway.
