I picked up my 03 MCS today!!

My wife is 8 months pregnant so i figured my gmc syclone wasnt going to be the greatest back-up/2nd car.
So i looked around for a week.
And i picked up a pristine MCS.
Link to pics: http://rlauto.us/minii/_gallery_.htm

The car has 113K miles.
I am very happy, so far.
it must be all highway miles.
Carfax showed the owner drove 25k+ miles a year.

Let me know what you guys think.

Looks real nice.. Awesome purchase and I hope you have many more happy motoring miles left in that car.

So what's the first mod?

well the reason i got the car, was mostly its already forced induction, so easy HP adders are there.
it has good rims and suspension.
so supercharger pulley all the way.:tup:
do those intakes(like you have) make a noticable difference? it still pulls air thru the front grill correct?

Congrats! The car seems to be in pretty good shape. Motor on!

Edit: Btw, is that leatherette or leather? I'm currently sitting at a low res. terminal and can't look at the detailed snaps.

Yeah they make a noticable difference and the SC screams and still pull air through the front as well as the cowl in the back.

Just a FYI research what CAI is right for you.

Welcome to NAM and congrats on the Mini and the upcoming little one. Baby's need a lot of "MODS' too!!!
You also have great taste in color selection.
