I didn't post that much in my years here as an owner, I was more active in the "early days" of the mailing-list based CEG.
My Mystique is sold... I won't say to whom, I'll let them identify themselves here if they choose to. I had a great run with my car - 9.5 years and 78,000 miles - but it just needed too much help at the end, and I can't work on it myself. I miss it, but having a new Mazda 6 makes it easy to move on
I hope you guys will still let me visit here and chime in occasionally. I did learn a thing or two about or cars over the years...
There was another thread about "the future of our cars" - and I'm unfortunately of the opinion that it's kinda bleak. The car never really took off, there's not a huge aftermarket for it, and they're not without their share of problems. But in the right hands, they're a great car, and we're lucky to have/have had them. As I said years ago, they'll always be a niche car: as with the Edsel owners, diehard fans who will be seeking each other out in dwindling numbers at auto shows for years to come
happy motoring,
