I did the new car thing too...! - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #52363 28 posts Started by amysmojo
I didn't want to have to do this but I bought a new car! Its a dark green 1995 Mazda Mx-6 LS (V6 2.5 liter wooohooo) Next I will be selling the Celica...I hate to do it but I need to get rid of my car payments! Its a really good feeling to buy a car in full & own it right away *omg* No more car payments for amy biggrin.gif Freeeedom

Anyway I just picked it up tonight...so I don't have any pics but here is what it looks like. (I hope the Mx-6 community is as cool as my 6gc family):

i like the looks of those cars. the only thing is i think they shoulda made it a hatch. it would have really sweet curves as a hatch.
also are the wheels interchangable? those chrome wheels would look sweet on it!
sorry to say but i don't think any other community is as cool as the 6gc community.
6GC RULES!!!

Call me a traitor! See if I care. ;)
I really like those, it seems like there is always a hot chick driving them.
Your's will be another. wink.gif

JDM guy made me do it.
I agree about the hatch thing! Id rather have it that way also smile.gif But this style works too. Its gonna be weird having a real trunk again haha

After work today Im going to see if the chrome rims will fit, I hope they do. If not Oh well!

Yeah, my brother owned one a while back and had to replace like two transmissions. Hopefully you got one that with a good repair record and has been maintained.

I HATE working on those!


I agree with Zach on this one. The MX-6 is basically the same setup as the Ford Probe GT with different body paneling, and they are a bitch to work on. Fast though, especially compared to the Celica, and there is a lot you can do to the motor to make it even faster if you so desire.

We shall show mercy, but we shall not ask for it.

yeah my room mate had a probe, she loved it. Oh & I have a free mechanic so really if anything happens he can fix it for free. But he checked it out before I bought it & so far so good!

Ill get pics up... just havent had time to do that stuff yet. Last night I had my mechanic friend install a pioneer cd player for me (since it only had a tape player & radio before lol)
not a big fan of the body style, like the celi much better.

but if you like it! Good luck with it!

its an ok 6banger.... had fun racing in a 96 limited edition one, they are somewhat quick, slow compared to other 6'ers but fun either way... have fun with it
Sad to see you have to sell the Celi frown.gif
Cause I rather the Celi over that anyday.
Its just not as sexy wink.gif

Coomer Too!?? Dang Im behind around here, I had no idea! Its very sad. But if I win the lottery with in the next few weeks then...Ill keep the Celi! Trust me I dont want to see it go! But I doubt that will happen.... grrr

Here are a couple cell phone shots of the mx6, the only thing helping me feel better about this whole car situation is knowing I have a new car to play w/ & make my own. The poor thing is so dang stock! It needs some TLC for sure. I cant wait to put my 17's from the celi on it

needs new hood as u can see but for $1500 im not complaining. (btw its pretty quick biggrin.gif)
