But why are you limiting it to just the 9 MRs?

I have a feeling, I'll end up getting what ever comes to me for the best price thats best maintained. But inless theres an 8 at some awesome price, its going to be a 9. Craigslist sucks, is there any better place to look up adds, other then here and CL?

various members have drag raced/auto-x'ed their six speeds to the death with no issues

i'm one of the people he's talking about. my MR is fine.
