<![CDATA[thinking about getting a mr2]]>I was just wondering what everyone thinks and if anyone really knows much about a 1990-1993 toyota MR2? I just thought that they are a pretty cool looking car and that they are kinda hard to come by. Give me your thoughts. Im thinkn about maybe getting one and turning it into a project since nobody around here has one.

thanx

Ill double check when I go there tomorrow.

BUT.

Every MKI MR-2 owner I've ever talked to....they swear by them, and refuse to drive anything else.

EDIT: And I don't mean in the same sense that I swear by the CA18. The guy that runs the Indianapolis-area touge runs a naturally apsirated MKI MR-2, and has ruined numerous 240s, RX-7s, even a 944 porsche. The braking on that car is incredible since it doesn' weigh shit. Get some agressive brake pads and a few bolt ons and you're good to go.
