I drove a MR2 briefly in college and was hooked - then drove another in January 
of 1996 from San Fran to Santa Cruz and beyond, was very impressed and started 
a journey to find one with no rust.  ..just got (feb 97) one from a dealer 
AS/IS - which had it's original spark plugs intact - ran rough -with that in 
mind of previous maitenance... replaced all the belts and fixed the hole before 
the exhaust pipe and a tune-up and off it goes...
not fancy - has a sunroof/air/5sp gets 32 MPG with 87 fuel...my other vehcile 
is a pick-up truck...

questions to all

1.  What is a reasonable ($$) set of tires after these wear out - remember mud 
and snow and crappy roads

2.  What are reasonable ($$) but stiff struts and can i really install them 
myself?? - no garage though...

3.  Any other must haves......?

That's it from me....
