heheheheh... thats us. though, our Mr2 collection is shrinking. we used to have 4, and soon we'll only have 2. and i'm selling the starlet (ie. box on wheels) as well.

yeah... i searched for 6 months before i found my RS. unfortunately, there is some 'bad blood' that came with it... :/ but, i'm doing what i can to purge all that 'bad blood' and just enjoy the RS for what it is.

haha Yes I'm joking. I figured it was you. Hopefully when we're done we'll have four cars. Clear the street up a bit.

honestly, the only type of car i'd look to buy is something like an integra. now, before everyone starts laughing their asses off, i have my reasons.

here is a list of the cars i've owned so far...
1. 1987 supra. FR. (loved it, but too big and heavy.)
2. 1986 Mr2. MR. (my demon.)
3. 1987 corolla gts. FR. (hate this goddamned car.)
4. 1988 celica alltrac turbo. AWD. (love this car.)
5. 1982 starlet. FR. (too much fun to drive!)
6. 1999 2.5RS. AWD. (an absolute dream.)

the only setup that i have not had any experience with is FF. yes, i know that RR exists, but its not something i feel that i'd like, whereas FF does have some specific advantages, and drawbacks. and, i want to learn what they are, and how to make the most of them. its just the whole idea of becoming a more well rounded driver.
