Just to say Hi

What's up all? I'm new to the board and just wanted to say hi. I have had my Classic Red P5 for about 2 weeks and it's a pretty cool little car. I didn't plan on getting the P5, I wanted an ES but the dealer didn't have any. As a metter of fact, he didn't have anything with a 5spd except the P5s. I test drove one and next thing you know I was driving one home the same day. I wasn't even planning on buying that day!

WHAAASSS UUUUUP!!!! I love my car too. I just got the silver P5. You made the better choice. I like the fact that it goes against the norm. No sport ute for me.

I am aiming at the end of July. You are so right I can't wait, it's going to be my first brand new car. The last car's I bought was 1969 912 Porsche, that one was 30 years old when I got it, the time before that was 98' 250 Ninja motorcycle that was a year old and my very first car was my 92' Mx-3 V-6 that was 3 years old when I got her. I love my Mazda's so much that she is the ownly one I had kept and turned in to a show car. That is why am getting a another Mazda.
