Ken, that is quite a nice driveway you have there. I have decided to start making preparations to send the speed on to her next home. As a swiss army knife of a car, the speed is pretty damn hard to beat. For 5 years of its life my speed was a daily, kid hauler and weekend warrior. I'll never...

Fair point, but I could take my wife's reliable car and buy her a damn Jeep to get her off my ass about me having 3 toys and her not having a fun car. lmao Do I think a wrangler is fun, not particularly, but if it would make her happy so be it. Damn irrational creatures.

I do think if it was my only vehicle I would put in a new suspension, and consider a new motor, probably fall in love with it again. The problem in my particular instance is it is fighting for my attention with a motorcycle, which is faster in a straight line than it will ever be, and a miata...

My speeds first 50k was living in Oklahoma with a 50 miles commute to work, wouldn’t recommend it lol

Yeah I’m about 30 each way, plus driving to vendor shops as needed. Coupled with my wife and I are debating moving outside of city limits to a place that would put me closer to 45 each way. Thus the speed isn’t exactly well suited to what I’m using it for.

I meant miles, built engines aren’t known for soaking up miles.

I’m assuming you have a short commute? If I did I would be much more into an idea like that.

Depends on the commute, for me it’s all interstate usually in at least moderate traffic. I’d choose the odyssey 10 times out of 10 for that. That said I have considered tossing a K04 and catted DP on and driving it to death. Could probably get a few more years out of it that way. In the Miata I...

Have you seen the people buying used speeds these days? It has a 1 in 20 chance of going to someone with any appreciation for it. As far as dodge, yes I’m well aware of their shit build quality, had a 2009 Ram that still haunts me. But it’s not me, it’s my wife that wants a wrangler. Wrangler’s...

No, not much of a truck guy and I have no interest in putting money in the Miata. I do kinda want a new bike though... Most likely I’m going to take the wife’s 19’ Oddy as a daily and trade in the speed towards a Jeep for her. New bike will have to wait.

I am kind of where you are, well, were. I bought my speed 3 new in 2013, started with bolt-ons immediately. The truth is, I kept modifying the car expecting it to just become more and more fun, then it reached a point where I realized it wasn't the case for me. In a nutshell, the speeds strong...

Big ole' Photo Dump

Damn dude, I’m sorry it ended like that for you. I’ll let the tech savvy people help you out with this, but I’m glad you and your son had a great time before that. Shoot us a message in GroupMe, we have a few guys in chat that can help if no one bites here.

Bought a few things and washed the car for the first time, always fun, except you see just how quickly it has picked up micro swirls. Oh well, it’s a car, shit happens.

Already tagged him on Groupme, he isn't able to PM you on here. If you want to PM me I can get you into groupme to hash details out with him.
