Hey guys,
I have been debating for a while what car I should get and I think Ive came to a sensible conclusion. Ill just kinda lay out the pros and cons for each car Ive been considering: Mr2T: Sexy ass car. Already has 3sgte. only 91 model in price range(and thats if i find a deal). 2 seater. insurence$$. super fun to drive. Celica: Love the look. Alot cheaper. Can afford 94-95GT. newer alot less kms. Ill save 5000 buying it so that will be money for a 3sgte. Where in ontario do they swap 3sgtes?hmmm. More practical since I live on my own and need trunk space. insurence is around the same as mr2. 300ZX: Sexy car, so wide":). Lots of power already. complicated car with alot of upkeep. can only afford a 1990, lots of kms. if not alot of kms then 100k km maintenance probably hasnt been completed. insurence$$ Keep my MX-3: its paid for. klze swap costs about 3000, straight bolt in, no new axles, or harness or anything and pumps 200hp NA stock. after market parts are EXPENSIVE, like 700 for a nice bumper. could use a repaint, and new suspension. Out of all those Id most prefer the celica, that was the original car I was considering when selling my mx-3, and its the reason I am selling my mx-3, I drove by a dealership in chatham and saw a 94celicagt sitting there and decided on the spot i was selling my car and getting one. |

Not only does the Mr2 outhandle anything FR, but it also will out-power it easily..
Don't forget, with a stock turbo, lots of mods will get you far (HP-wise)...DP, raised boost, IC's etc etc. An avg. Mr2-t costs $7-8k. A Celica GT 5-speed is like $5-6k. So they aren't that far apart yet one is much more fun. I don't see how $2k can kill your finances, take out a loan and get the Mr2-T! |
