Sun Jan 14 12:49:51 2007 Frank (frankservi@yahoo.com) (c-24-61-0-16.hsd1.ma.comcast.net) I putchased my 91 turbo charged mr2 at an auction where there were only 2 peoplebidding on the car. I guess I outlasted him.I love this car.frs
Tue Jan 16 20:30:38 2007 Froilan Colon (freudcgc@hotmail.com) (64.213.116.29) I have my Mr2Sc 89 and i love this machine, Cams from Crower, Sproker for Twos"r"us and a custom pulley(12psi)in a machine shop that's the neccesary to intimidate @ 30,000 cars dollars.
Wed Jan 17 18:33:24 2007 John (john@toyroom39.wanadoo.co.uk) (user-5442d67e.lns2-c8.dsl.pol.co.uk) I can definitely tell you all that MR" means: "Midship Runabout 2 seater" The concept car upon which the Bertone X 19 which was sold by Fiat was based was called the Bertone Barchetta Runabout and there were two X19s in the Toyota factory when Colin Chapman (Lotus founder) visited them to advise on their new car. His daughter was driving an X 19 at the time and the name is therefore probably a nod to the inspiration of the first budget mid-engined sports car. I am afraid that I never owned an MR2 and leap frogged straight to a Lotus Esprit V8. The latest incarnation of the MR2 is an absolutely sublime experience to drive and if I hadn't passed an Esprit on my way home from the test drive I can safely say that I would definitely have bought one!

Fri Feb 9 13:08:36 2007 Tim Pinson (timothypinson@hotmail.com) (browse.rccl.com) Just Checking things out. I have a 1992 Non-Turbo MR2, Silver with Black interior.
Fri Feb 9 18:51:49 2007 Rich Provensen (rprovensen@earthlink.net) (mail.sunsetporsche.com) I own a 1991 MR2 Turbo manual 5 speed. Nothing(except maybe a Lotus Elise)can take corners like I can. Period! I have Dunlop A2 Sport Plus all season radials on the machine and it's amazing how it hugs corners at high speeds. It is totally stock and I was lucky to find a one owner car. The original owner was an engineer and took meticulous care of the car. I surprise Boxters and Z3s all the time. They don't know what an MR2 is but after they see my tail lights after a few curves I'm sure they wonder "what was that little red car that just blew off my doors?" I've seen some puzzled expressions in my rear view mirrors. Surprisingly, guys between 18 and 30 seem to know what it is, many compliments from them. If anyone can find one of these close to stock or stock, you'd be very lucky. Easily the most bang for buck sporting machine in the world. Enjoy if you have one or can find one.

Mon Mar 19 14:44:13 2007 Steve Kendricks (shootdvc@hotmail.com) (170.94.26.21) When I was in my 20's I wanted an MR2 but my parents advised me not purchase it because of it's size. It is probably best that I listened, not for their reason but because it's so low to the ground I don't know how I would have made it through Detroit's snow bank filled winters. Now I'm in my 40's and live in a southern climate I have finally purchased one of the cars of my dreams - and its a blast.Steve
