Day 1 down. So far, so good.
Also, goddamn, y'all have been busy today. So many posts for a Saturday.

Are you towing a Boxster?

Nope, same old MR2. The City has not been kind. Lot of cleanup to do.

Apparently it's hard to tell if you're a cop, too. I got pulled over once for "speeding" and dude asked me what kind of Porsche it was.
Didn't ticket me (thankfully, since I wasn't speeding).

Should have told him 550 Spyder...

As much as I came to defend the MR2 mk3, I cannot desecrate the best of the best.

You're living in a Hill? Are you a Hobbit?
The MR2 looks awesome. Is it a red top? I've never seen one like that.

I want to live in the Shire so hard.

Yeah, it's the only one I've ever seen. Mine's a bit of a unicorn. I had to replace the top (they tend to tear around the glass window that a puny Toyota has when Porsche and Mercedes use plastic), so I had the top made with burgundy canvas. It also has full underbody bracing and vent mesh made from some server prototype hex mesh. And a short antenna so it doesn't look like an rc car.

MR2 race car, can we get some pics?

Street car. Stock suspension and footwear, added bracing. Daily driver for the last 8 (Jesus Christ. Eight.) years.

Well ... nice car. I've always liked & thought the mr2 was under appreciated.

Me too. I hated it when I saw it at the Detroit show in 2000. They had a red one and a yellow one. I wrote it off as an anime boxster. Didn't
think about it again for years, until I was looking for a car and saw this one for sale close by, with less than 30k. It still had the black vinyl top. I thought, hm.... No other car satisfies all three of these requirements: affordable, reliable, mid-engined.
Bought it the next day.
I could go on for too long about how good it is.

Good enough for Spinelli.
