Well everyone, I know I don't post much anymore these days, ever since the server change, but I've been around, still checking the boards pretty much everyday. But as of Thursday, I no longer drive a contour, but a 93 Toyota MR2 Turbo.



It sure is a welcome change from the ol' automatic Zetec, that's for sure. Anyway, I'm not going anywhere, just announcing my change of status from contour owner to troll.

Very sharp, very nice choice! I have always liked the MR2s, and the Turbo even more so. Enjoy!

Excellent choice! And it looks amazing, especially for a '93!

MR2's kick A$$! so much better than the previous contour, you can feel the balance between handling and speed. i think the vest part about an MR2 is coming around a corner at XXXMPH and sitting right on the verge of oversteer. very well balanced car. good choice.

I have driven every car I have ever read an article about. I find exactly the same things as the author in every case. Therefore, i really liked my time behind the wheel of the MR2. Before I post my impressions of the car, I have to go look through the reviews from Motor Trend to make sure they still agree with me....brb.
