hahaha

As opposed to how it handles sitting and not moving? lol

Welcome Adam. Good luck on finding a '93, they do get more rare after '92. But it shouldn't be too hard if you keep an eye out.

If by "problems" you mean inexperianced drivers crashing them, then I guess the '91/'92's more touchy suspension would be a problem.

However, aside from some electrical differences, minor suspension changes, and some cosmetic changes, the two cars are basicaly identical.

Well depends on what your really find, as from 91-95 every year up got rarer than the last, you will find a lot more 91's than 92's and theres nothing really anything changed, unless your going for 94+.

93+ have suspension midifications, oversteer understeer thing, and 93 turbos got lsd and its and electonic rather than 91's and 92's (more expensive though)
And ill bet you youll find a mr2 there, pretty easy to get in PA

Ohh yeah the lsd. I might want to rock one with it. I've never had an lsd before. Just open diffs. Would be cool. I don't think i'll have a problem finding a MR2 turbo. Im actually about 30 min from philly and 5 min from trenton. Im right by where I-95 crosses the Delaware river into jersey.
