I have combed by back issues but I just can't seem to find the issue with the MX3 profile in it. Anyone happen to know which one it is?

I hope someone "chimes in" with the answer, as there is what appears to be a V6 MX3 on CL in my area....for dirt cheap.

Why is it that i whenever i find a car i like, everyone else starts liking it, too?

Also in for this. I just bought a 1994 MX3 V6, and i want another for my use.

That's odd. I just bought a bunch of back issues for..um.. porcelain perusing, and the one I just recently finished up was the June 2005 issues, which had said MX-3 guide. An odd fact, that V6 has the same displacement per cylinder as a current F1 engine....with a third of the redline.

I don't think i have June 2005.

Will have to check if it's available through the GRM store. I need that. I require another MX3 GS for my own personal ST enjoyment.

Man, I wanted a MX3 V6 really bad back in high school. I always liked the styling on those cars, sort of like a truncated FD RX7 (the thing I really wanted, but sure-as-hell couldn't afford the insurance). Although I haven't seen them lately, there was a group/club of 3-4 guys who would bring their MX3s to the Atlanta region autocrosses a year or two ago. Not sure how competitive they were, but it looked like they were having fun.

Awesome, thanks! I know I read it, so I know I have it... You know the one I don't have? the 08/00 one with the GS400 race cars. I n33dz it.
