lmao i make 8.20 an hour and get only 10 (15 if im lucky) hours a week
and insurance costs 300 a month

im currently 17 and im on my second mr2. i bought my first one (87 mk1) when i was 16 and then got rid of it since i couldn't afford to fix it. now i have a 91 mk2 with some mods and im lovin it : )

krazy2 · 01-14-2009, 05:44 PM

Hmmm likely

Ray-088 · 01-14-2009, 05:49 PM

you cant really say all teens are like that... i only rev higher than 5 grand when the street is empty and the only person ive ever raced was another 2 but it was on an empty highway....im 17 and hes 19 neither of us race and do stupid things because we actually care about our cars...

deucegirl03 · 01-16-2009, 06:35 PM

i am 24. i don't really know any other mr2 owners (that's why i joined this forum!) but when i went to UTI i knew a few kids who did and they were all about my age.
Currently i own a Crimson Red stock 91 n/a t-top.
daily driver now but BIG plans for her. i am saving money for a daily driver (Toyota pick up just can't decide what year). once i have the truck i will be building the Deuce into a track spec road racer mwhahahahahahahaha. i want to give you guys some sh*t you've never seen from a female before.

Bring it on deucegirl03 !!!!

Check your area for meets, you can meet a lot of people and see some kewl cars.

I'm 17, just got my MR2 about 3 months ago. It is completely bone stock, although it seems like somebody already fully stripped and replaced the interior. I had to take off a lot of the inner trim panels because I was chasing a leak from my t-tops, and everything I took off had like 2 or 3 broken clips, the screws had been partly stripped, things like that.

I actually plan on swapping my interior at some point, because it is blue cloth right now and ugly as sin. I want to swap in some bucket seats and 5-point harnesses with a harness bar, maybe an aftermarket steering wheel too. I plan on cams, intake, and exhaust first though. Rims will have to fit in there somewhere, I want some really light weight forged rims.

deucegirl03, I have the same plan as you. I want an older Tacoma as my daily driver and plan on eventually making my MR2 a track car. Plus, I want a 4x4 in the winter, and for off-roading in the weekends.

krazy2 · 01-16-2009, 07:38 PM

Sounds like its gonna' be a kewl ride Medusa!!

Medusa · 01-16-2009, 07:53 PM

I can't wait till I get the money to work on it. I'd really love to get a widebody and wide wheels on it, but even stock width would work.

My money is going into engine work first though. My friends here all know that I am the anti-rice. And in my opinion doing body work and interior stuff is almost ricey.

krazy2 · 01-16-2009, 10:04 PM

Personally I like a little from both worlds, but in moderation.

Medusa · 01-17-2009, 01:56 AM

^ I agree, but like I said I feel silly spending money on looks when it could go to performance.

krazy2 · 01-17-2009, 08:54 AM

Agree with u, Performance #1 , style #2 as you go along

Stados · 01-29-2009, 03:44 AM

I have 26, bought first Mr2 at 18 as a first car, I have drive the second family car from 16 to 18. Now I'm with my 4th Mk1, and I hope this one still in one piece until I was in last set of age ! Maybe I will consider buying another one for winter, who knows.

i am planning on getting the bare bones 2wd P/U.
i had a 91 before i got the 2 and loved the hell outta that car.
too bad i put her into a light pole....

i just need something that will be fuel efficient/reliable and that i can throw my tools/parts into.
