pfffft beautiful
and cars get impounded
Thread revival...
I think our MPS secret is starting to get out, definitely more people know what they are. I've noticed people will actually get out of the way now if you're coming through and others in "performance" cars will make a huge effort to pull up near you at the lights and have a look at the car.
Blew away a standard VE SS ute from a rolling start up a hill the other week, poor bloke shat himself when he heard the turbo whistle
you used to say 90% lol!!
anyway!! yes i love the car!! very fn drive, and the look of wtf on v8 drivers!! or even 6 turbo drivers as u beat tem buy a lengh or so!! i think the best thing about the car is bang for buck!! tottaly up with the pace of a 80 -90k+ european!! SLEEPA!! all the way, gen 2 tho is a diffrent story!!

I dunno what it is...maybe I'm just slow or my car is really slow but I don't think I could ever beat a VE SS let alone XR6 turbos. Is there really such a big difference between the MPS 3 and 6? Are you guys doing this stock?
there a little difference. about 350kg in weight. makes for a big difference.
I think I have to agree with BB on the fact that most people don't know what we've got.
I like the idea of having a sleeper that only the truly observant car lovers know what hides under the bonnet...
I'm not a big one for BOV's and all that stuff, but I like the idea of scaring the crap outta someone when you leave them for dead, accelerating away from them!!!
Girl's Car? Shopping trolley?? Let 'em think that, will keep the tossers out of our beloved MPS's and keep them in WRX's and Skylines...
Guess what guys,Cops do know the potential of MPS3. Here on the Sunshine Coast the cops have a black MPS3 unmarked. One of my friends got booked by them and he thought it was me until they activated lights.
The cops car has lights on dash and lights under the rear spoiler insde the rear glass.and stobes inside the front grill . SO ha ha you have been warned. Regards Oldhead
Cool - haven't heard of a unmarked MPS3...seen the Golfs, but not an MPS
You definately can beat SS and XR6 turbos and lib GTI's ... and lots of cars admittedly the surprise factor gets you over the line against the big guns but that is part of the joy in it esp in the 6. Ive lost track of how many times Ive done it then at the next set of lights you see them totally checking out your car to work out what it is, its a bigger slap for them too when they see a girl driving
Taken my boring, bland, lame Subaru and my fat ass and driven off into the sunset with a smile on my face
Perhaps you've been running with modded SS's? Stock ones are not that quick. I've beaten SS utes to the speed limit while driving a rented 380. Easy peasy in an MPS.
The other day I ran with 2 magna's, smoked one but the other one almost kept up with me!!! Until we got to a corner. Must have had a supercharger cos he we real keen to have another go. How did it look from your perspective Matt?
Gone to Volvo
Mazda6 MPS 1612kg
Mazda3 MPS 1402kg
Not 350kg difference, but 210kg...That does make a difference...but so does all wheel drive and no torque restrictions- Off the mark, 6 wins...which is why they are better in that situation...cruising and flooring it, the 3 beats the 6.
