Poll: Avg. age of a duece owner?

What kind of mr2 and mods do you have?

I would expect the older mr2 owners to have maybe less modded cars, but you never know.

How old are you?

Trying to get a feel for the average age of the mr2 owner.

Oh, and although its not in the poll, would you say your car is more purely for transportation and nothing more than getting you from point A to pioint B and the occaisonal Point C, Or is this car your Toy would you say?

I am 20 and go to college. It is definitly my toy and is like a video game when I get in it. I bought it off of an 18 year old kid. My stl mr2 buddies very generally tend to be about 18-23 years old. Is this the case for everyone else? There mostly mr2 turbo owners for the most part, one of them has an NA, but plans on making it an NA to T, and all of them have the same mentality about there cars. We all have mods, with big plans for the car in the near future.

I have a aquamarine pearl, 91 Turbo,Sunroof. Apexi n1 exhaust, apexi intake, TRD motor mounts, Spec stage 2 clutch, fidanza flywheel, 3" dpipe, 17" rims.
Use to run 17psi on ct26, then turbo broke. CT27 or ct20b and an IC will be coming very soon.

KYB AGX adjustable struts, Eibach Sportlines

10" sub, Eclipse 32440 800w rms, 6.5" eclipse dr spkr's, JL twters, Sony MDX800 headunit

I love that color, especially with the black wheels.

Would you mind doing us the favor of resizing your pic so it fits on the screen?

The rest of you lose! =P

I just saw the 50-100 and realized how awesome it would be if some like 102 year old guy with some wicked MR2 came on the board and was like "Yo biotch, you excluded me from your poll!" =D

Why would older owners have less mods? I would buy into older owners having more tasteful mods, but not less! My car is modded quite heavily and I'm 30.

You speak the truth -- You have no idea.

All three of my cars are so heavily modded, it might be easier for me to list what HASN'T been touched!
