Toyota MR2's are pretty quick...

Just came back from a drive and all I have to say is that modified MR2's are quick. Not to imply anything of course...

One day I'll have to own a 2 seater, and another toyota. Toyotas used to rule... I mean think back to pre-1998, we had the REAL MR2 (not the castrated spyder), the supra and of course back in 86...

The U.S. also doesn't get their hands on another great toyota, the starlet. Anyway goodnight all. That is all.

Don't forget the Chaser, Twin Turbo Soarer, and the Mark II. All 280hp RWD Toyotas we didn't get...

I've always liked the Celica GT IV myself. That would be an awesome car to have.

I always liked the '88 supercharged MR2. Lots of fun for the money! It's rare to see one for sale these days, but I still dream about buying one for a weekend car. The only drawback is that most people on the road drive SUVs now and I'm not sure how safe I'd feel in a MR2.

My house mate has an '02 Spyder. Super fun little car. It's not the fastest thing in the world, but it is so much fun to drive! Light and low to the ground with sticky summer meats...of course every time he rides in my car he is mumbling something about needing a turbo.

I drove a red '94 for about 2 years and I loved it. Before then I didn't care less about cars but once I learned to drive manuel I became a car enthusiest. Then I saw my first rally on Speedvision and the is history.

MR2 Turbo models are killer cars. They did a test and it hit the 1/4 mile in high 13's. not sure if it had mods or anything but its a hoot to drive I hear.
