Well, you guys really helped me out with the eclipse decision, and i read all about the reliablity and it seems the timing belt has a tendency to snap and the tranny is weak as well as the back end
![]() thnx again guys, you're all very very very helpful! was also wonderin if i could drive one of those babys in the winter, we have brutal cold and sometimes snowy winters up here in toronto, would a mid engine rwd car hold its own?

and winter is BAD idea. read up some on how a MR setup handles. its MUCH different then FF or FR.
EDIT: im not saying it isnt doable, cuz people do pull it off, but knowing my driving style, with a turbo MR car, i would NEVER pull it off in my car. QUOTE (macavely @ Jan 15, 2004 - 4:54 PM) well just look one the roads when your drive you still see old MR-2 around... like they have on the first page of my owners book.. " Toyotas are forever" if you find one that taken care of even with a ship load of miles you shouldn't have any major problems... it is a toyota engine.. and you can ride one of those though hell and back.. (non turbo) turbo models as well man, that 3sgte will last you forever if you dont modify it and keep up with the maintanence, and a turbo rebuild unfortunatly is maintanence that is necessary (after about 60K-70kmiles is when you should start thinking about a rebuild).
