There is a thread in this forum called "Mr2 as a first car".
MR2 For a First Car
When you get yours running, and license in hand . . . . the car will handle so well . . . that you, in your inexperience,
MIGHT think there's nothing it can't do.
Every early teenaged owner of an MR2 in my neck of the woods has totalled their MR2 within 6 to 8 weeks of ownership.
Youth is a form of insanity. I can honestly say that when I was in my mid-teens . . that if I had a car that would go 250 MPH, I'd have gone 250 MPH regardless of weather, traffic, road conditions, etc. But if you survive your youth, the reward is dull, boring sanity.
