Hey all! I picked up a '99 GT a couple weeks ago as my winter car/daily driver, so I can take it easy on my first love (93T MR2).
She's in pretty good shape, needs a little exteriors TLC come springtime but all in all not bad. She's an automatic for now, but when the snow leaves I'll be converting to a manual transmission.   I've been browsing around the community for a while and I think this is a great place. I'm glad to have these resources around when I end up working on her. Look forward to talking to y'all in the future! And for those interested in the MR2  :

Welcome fellow NYer!
Glad to see you're not the kid I thought you were that keeps coming into my shop with his white 93 MR2 Turbo that doesn't know anything about cars... I saw the white MR2 and was a bit worried, but your front grill is white. There are a few of us up here in NY... Josh (JDcelica) and I are trying to meet up with some locals (in fact, I'm trying to meet with him lmao stupid work schedules). Good to see another person from NY with a CLEAN 6GC. Most around here are battered and broken. -------------------- 1994 Toyota Celica GT-S 5S-FE 190k Miles. Project car 1992 Toyota Celica GT 5S-FE 170k Miles.

Thanks for the nice comments on my MR2! Really a wonderful car, but man is she a pain to keep on the road.

Most around here are battered and broken. Ha yeah I'm going to try to keep her looking decent. The MR2 currently needs a new bumper (guardrail  ) and some serious exterior love (previous owner went for a Maaco special paint job, flaking off in spots), but I should be able to safely say I know a bit about cars at this point. Maybe you can convince that kid to part with his? It does look real nice sitting next to the Celica, now I just need a white MkIV Supra to round out the collection, lol!
