Another Daily Driver 226,XXX miles

ddanque · 04-12-2007, 12:09 AM

I have a 1991 MR2, it's a '91 N/A, Automatic, black on black. With 226,XXX miles on the odometer. It looks great from 5~7 feet away, paint is original, plastic bumpers are fading. More or less stock. It's my daily driver and I am the second owner of record, if you don't include the bank when it was new.

I would like to thank Gairloch, jjjxlr8 for helping with my suspension question. Revdup-supra for inviting me to take my MR2 to his shop to help sort things out.

Previously I had an '88 turbo celica, ST165, 3SGTE engine, awd, and a back seat. There was so much heat underhood that hood that after a hard run the turbo would still be red hot, cool, but crispy wiring not cool.

Interested in keeping it going, and when something fails, upgrade it.

I've posted pictures in the gallery.

Nice, very clean, I love the floor mats. Good to see more AUTO's around cuz they are rare.

Saw Denny's car today and it looks great! For having 242K it is in great condition (you should see the interior

) and the 5S is still strong!
