Millenia Type S?

The other day i was sitting at a light and saw a Mazda Millenia ith an Acura Type S badge on the rear and front fenders. It was warm so we both had the windows down. I felt like being a dlck so i said yo, thats a type s, i thought that was an Acura thing. He said nah, Jaguar has the Type S(S Type) and Mazda has it too(Millenia S). I said they use the same emblem as the acura? He's like yeah. I nodded and we left it at that. When the light turned green though he tried what looked like a wot launch, i just gave it gas half way and blew his blown mazda away. I heard a super charger whine when he took off, but my motor overpowered the sound coming from his. When we pulled up to the light he asked, is that a type s? I said no, it's a P, he was like P? Like he was thinking of changing the emblems to make it faster or something. Just thought it was a funny story to tell since this "enthusiast" thinks people are dumber than we look.

That is a real sad story and it sounds like the guy has self esteem problems that surface in the car he drives. The Millenia may not be the fastest car but it is a excellent car of it's ownn right the owner in this case doesn't realize that and is trying to pass the car off as something it ain't and he really has no need to do so.

wow is it that slow??? Back before I bought the TL I was considering the Millenia along with the 626.....the sales person were horrible but even if they were nice....the 2.3L (or was it 2.4L) supercharged just didn't attract me.

There are Plenty of mods for the TL. Internal mods are expensive and dont always yield good results.

Search this forum. There are lots of good mods that are bolt on with good #s.
