if you sold the mr2 what would you get? - Page 3

Mk1 Celica Coupe (they are RWD), fix it up nicely & drop in a 3sgte.

Always liked these & would LOVE to have one as a project car like my MR2.

If not then an ST185 would do. Then I could SCCA Rally-X with it.

tstoney82 · 05-19-2009, 08:51 PM

with 10k i would buy a galant vr4 if i could find one or an rx7 of some type

rspidydude · 05-19-2009, 09:28 PM

i would have to buy another toyota. FWD cars just dont do it for me, and AWD cars are fun for a minute,
My choices would be

FWD- '95 teg with the jdm front end conversion and a k20a3 swap
AWD- '92 galant VR4, my buddie had one and the are a blast to drive, not to mention the look on the guys face in the mustang when he gets smoked by a 4dr grocerie getter
RWD- '90 240 hatchback with a sr20det swap

Drove a Porsche 944 Turbo for around 400 miles now, I think I want one of those. They are FAST.

quiksilverly · 05-19-2009, 11:16 PM

RC-51 and some full leathers.

Where are you shopping?

I haven't seen any MK4 supras under 20k, much less 10k.

300ZX and FD's seem to go from 8-12k depending on its condition. (though FD's seem to be more expensive), so they're right there on the cusp.

Have you actually seen prices that low on a supra? Cuz if so, help a brotha out.

ebouwman · 05-21-2009, 12:25 AM

Ya people want ridiculous coin for those supra's.

sometimes you can find some really good deals at military auctions or used car lots around military bases because these soldiers go over seas for months, sometimes years at a time and get all of this money, buy a car thinking they are gonna be back in the states for a while, then get shipped out again or relocated. two years ago a friend of mine got a 94 rx7 twin turbo from a military auction in fayetteville for $7900. it only had 83k miles on it. there are definietly some good deals around the bases.

Honda S2K

MRH · 05-21-2009, 12:43 AM

I would probably go for a 1996 Kawasaki Ninja 250, I'm not one for obscene speeds, just enough to know that you are better than most others.

edj628 · 05-21-2009, 10:09 AM

yamaha R1

Then you're not going to want a '96 Ninja 250. lol... Those bikes are so freaking slow it is unreal.

lepichichi · 05-21-2009, 11:50 AM

if i had 10k i would buy me another rx8 or a rx7

RedStarr · 05-21-2009, 03:00 PM

You guys are bugged. For under 10K, I'd probably just upgrade to a 94 MR2.

For under 10K, for a car that doesn't need a ****load of maintenance, I can't think of any other car I'd want. Maybe an E30 M3?

RX8 if I decided I don't want to mod cars anymore and I just want a nice cruiser (intake and exhaust)

jc5spd · 05-23-2009, 09:46 PM

i changed my mind..

id get an

Aprilia RSV4

my r6 needs a break from the track

Tjzsin4given · 05-23-2009, 10:03 PM

JDM MR2 GT 242 WHP CT26B turbo HKS everything. 10 thousand can do that for me right now. so what if ima get the same whip again.

Wheelman_13 · 05-23-2009, 10:22 PM

-FD
-S2000
-280Z shell + RB25 swap
-AE86 (and some change)
-E30 (turn into a spec-racer)

Just get a turbo kit for my NSX and call it a day.

420mr2 · 06-15-2009, 09:22 PM
