ahh thats a tough one..
86's are known for their handling..
but i've driven a stock 86 not that great handling until you drop some springs then it feels better than most cars

shaved door handles??
minus well have 20"wheels on your car!!
no offense its not my cup of tea!
shaved door handles would make the car look cleaner, but i guess thats just an opinion

i kinda dont understand wat u sayin about the 20"wheels, but yea we all know 20" in MR2 dont go together, unless ur a real ricer


and i wouldnt mind seeing AE86 vs MK1

Yo Alex you said you drove it hard and now it doesn't go into gear? Is the shifter floppy at all? (moves with no effort, some what flopping around?

mk1<mk3<mk2

Davis isn't going to touch it if its not an mr. I'd take a fiero over a corolla. But then again I do like fieros.

i drove it and somehow it didnt want to go into gear..
then it went into gear just a bit and i forced it in..
and it was driving well.. but now the shifter wont find neutral and only shifts between 1 and second.. but not neutral..

I somewhat think your shifter cable might have snapped. I can come by and check it out if you want me to, 562 baby!

mixxer... i think you would win for sure. the older i get. the slower i drive.

i use to remember driving by old ppl on the road yelling..."good god man, where you get your licence?!" now, i feel ppl are yelling the same thing to me.
