Ummmm, if you mean did I get the 2.3L? If so, then nope...they only had two certified pre-owned on the lot and both were the 3i models which have 2.0L...the 3s models have the 2.3L. At 140hp, the 3i is just fine for the wife. I'm still in pursuit of my car, just can't make up my mind!

Thanks...and I agree, but the wife wanted auto...I'm driving the MZ3 til the she starts working this fall, then I can purchase my car. Long story short, I sold my EM1 to get something for myself, but couldn't find anything. The two person/one car thing wasn't working out so well, so I figured I'd get the wife her car.

And the side moldings are just stuck on! nice and easy to remove.
