  • new to me car

    I just bought this 12 year old car. I've always wanted a stick shift. I've always wanted a car with engine in the back. I've never had a convertible. So I figured I can get all 3 at the same time.

    Congratulations. That's Opel/Saturn? I like the color.

      Gunnut,

      Compensating much?

        ...that runs on a Corolla engine and weighs only 2000 lb...

        It can't compensate anything unless you think I am way too big and muscular with too much money in my pocket.

                There is a lockable compartment just behind the seats, fully in compliance with kommiefornia's gun transportation laws.

                        Thank you, sir! It is an "MR2 Spyder" here.

                        The weird thing is the hard top was never imported by Toyota into the states. We are stuck with vinyl soft top. UK has hard tops galore. A guy on the Spyder forum imports hard tops to the states from UK. Each one goes for $2700!

                          With every hard top you receive a car for free. Fair.

                            Nice Car GN,

                            You need to repaint with a better colour though that green is not sporty.

                              Green? That's bright yellow.
