I've been saving for an mr2 for two years now. I fix and build barbwire fence in the priaire with the nice hot 100 degree weather.I started out making 5.15 an hour but worked it up to where i will be starting at $8 this coming week.So i basically earn every penny i make, and i will be buying the duece with my own money no help from parents even on insurance or gas. so there will develop more of a respect to the car. i love the rarity of the mr2's and the looks of the mkll. I am still in highschool and it will be my first car. i plan on getting it either the end of this year ( my fresman summer) or next summer ( sophmore summer). I plan on going to either UTI or Wyotech, along with my friend who owns a 91 dodge stealth ES. I want to work on cars my whole life and plan on opening a performance shop somewhere. Im not sure wether i want to get an n/a or go for a turbo right away. im pretty sure i want a 94, but wouldnt refuse a 91-93. theres so many posts of things go awry while driving but it seems like everyone is doing mach 90 or something.. its kinda scary but im sure the scariness is only beneficial to me. there you guys go all about me. if you know of any 2nd gens in the north dakota or surrounding area's let me know. even if i dont buy one for a while i'd kill to drive one just so i know how it is while driving.

are u gonna get a turbo or n/a? thats what im having trouble deciding. i realize im probly gonna have to go outta state for my mr2, so i want to make it worth it, but theres so much stuff on here that makes them seem unsafe. is everyone going the speed limit or maybe just "a lil" faster???
