Just got my first car which is a 1993 Toyota MR2. Its engine is the 5S-FE with about 220k miles on it. No engine mods, just some decent rims and a cheap exhaust that rattles.

I know some of you are gona be like, "You made a mistake buying a MR2 for your first car" or "your too young for that car". im 17 btw but i didnt just buy the car because I thought it was cool. I was deciding whether to get a 95 Nissan 240sx or this and wound up with the MR2. Why? because its a challenge, its my first ever project car and its a car that takes skill, patience, and practice to bring out its full potential. Thats my goal and I plan to stick to it.

Im happy with this car and i know theres gona be a few bumps along the way but hey, we just gotta pick up and go through it.

heres some pics of my car, cant wait to start working on it in autobody.

Just be careful with the oversteer that comes with right wheel drive they have a tendency not to just plow ahead with understeer like a front wheel drive otherwise have fun with it an mr2 was my first car at 14
