Is this a good combination of cpe modifcations?
 
Im looking at MS3 to replace my totaled g35coupe. There is an appealing one for sale nearby that is well within my price range, however, it has quite a few aftermarket cp-e parts. I am not familar with cp-e and would like a general idea of what my concerns should be regarding their products when I go to check out the car.Here is the car, it has 132,000 miles. There is also a stock MS3 I will check out wich may be a better option...but it is phantom purple. -Thanks

Really? :facepalm2:

Ever thought to Google them? You know, like search and stuff. Maybe try the same thing here? Just a thought.

Yes cp-e is a good brand, many people swear by their motor mounts. Lots of companies make the same parts, it's just personal preference what you decide on.

I've never seen a purple MSP3.

Purple MS3 likely means it has been in a wreck and repainted. Either option you go for, get yourself a carfax. They're like $8 on Ebay each.

And my honest opinion of CP-Enis, they're quality, but over priced and have fallen in the spot light recently. Damond motorsports seems to be the top contender for parts and Freek for tuning. JBR is good for many things, but, luck of the draw on quality control, but honest guy running a honest business, will do you right if you're unlucky.

Speeds have drastically fallen in price over the past year. There's a welcome post somewhere in your inbox on what to look out for concerning buying used speeds. Read it, read it a 2nd time, then read it 4 more times and do a compression test before buying. Any modified MS3 must have HPFP internals, if they do not, run. If they do, ask if they also have versatuner or Access port, and if it comes with the sale, and who their tuner is.
