Greetings from the badger state

Hi All,

just recently joined the site (even posted a question and got some good response) and have really liked what i have seen so far. A little about me: I am 28 and live in Madison, WI. As I was nearing driving age, 12 years ago, I started looking around at cars and gave serious consideration to getting a Fiero. I was also looking at early 50's pickup's. Ended up getting an 85 Chev half ton which served me very well until a most unfortunate fire this summer. My daily driver is an 85 Buick Skylark and I am looking for something fun to replace the truck. I know big difference between a P/U and an MR2. I am looking for a NA mkII. At first I was looking at 91's but then got a little scared when I read about the car being a little skittish, so then I started looking for 93's that have the updated suspension, as I am not used to driving a mid-engine rear wheel drive car. But I'm also not looking to push the car at all so am thinking 91's are back in the picture...any thoughts? So I guess what I am looking for is a 91-93 NA manual transmission with t-tops that is in decent condition (no rust). So that's my story and I'm sticking to it!

Thanks!

Luke

Welcome to the Board

91's are not necessarily skittish, they just need a little love

good luck in your search for an MR2
