Newbie from Deep South Africa

Super"M" · 10-05-2007, 03:45 AM

Hi all! I am a very proud owner of a red '01 MR2 spyder

I've had her for 2 years now. I bought her with a mere 16000km's(10000 miles)
Since then I've fitted 17' inch wheels (black 5 spoke with chrome dish)
Tein Springs; AEM CAI; B&M short shifter; momo gear kob; front and rear bonnet struts; new spec side air intakes; and a custom twin pipe dual exit cat back system(pre-CATs removed) All badges removed and new custom badges replaced on the front bumper, steering wheel and wheel caps.
Bades are the th 'S' from Superman thus the Super'M'.
I am currently building a 1MZ for her.
Oh It's also great bieng mistaken for a Porsche/Ferrari/even a lambo

....I have never claimed to be any of the above...I'm pround to have My TOYO MR2 Spyder!!!!

Sounds like an awesome project!

Please post up some pictures in your user garage immediately so we can drool over 'em.

Has anyone else put a 1mz into a MkIII?

My good friend's brother-in-law is from Johannesburg, he was a cop there as a young man before coming to Canada. He has quite a few stories to tell, it seems like a pretty crazy place. Where I'm from in British Columbia there is a tonne of South Africans, most of them seem to be doctors, so I have a few friends hailing from the deep south. I'd like to go there one day
