Might be taking a leave of absence, Found a new Toy Options

Well, like the title suggests, I might not be on for a long while. I still want to make the Pigeon Forge meet, but maybe not in the Celica.

At this point you're probably thinking I got in a wreck. The Celi is still fine and still running strong. Now to get to the point. I found a 92 MR2 NA for 3500 and am going to see about the money details first thing monday morning. It's a nice shade of blue(not factory), and has been well taken care of with just under 83k on it.
If I get it, I will post pics/details ASAP(and then find an MR2 board to hang with while still trying to keep up to date here). Just depends on what my bank says. I only owe 1500 on the Celica, so there shouldn't be a problem getting 5k to pay both off, or if I'm lucky getting 8k to cover the credit card as well. I don't care the % rate, as long as I have 2 of my 3 favorite cars in the driveway. I've been needing a second car anyways to prepare for the 7AFE giving up and being replaced with a 3SGTE(and then fortified with the goodies at the nice place Oreo posted about in Chicago).

[edit] forgot to mention, my brother in law is getting a Tiburon V6, which makes my need for a car with better power/weight ratio that much more important. He needs to be taught that a Hyundai is still a Hyundai and not a sports car. [/edit]

Once again forgot to mention. the Hyundai has 180, the MR2 has 135. I have no problem keeping up with the Tiburon now, I don't know if they are geared funny or what, but they aren't fast.

I'm not saying there's anything wrong with the 5s-fe engine, I was just making sure you knew. One of the reasons that the Tiburon isn't as fast as it should be is because the V6 that they used was original a truck engine. So it has good low end power but no top end, there's really no reason to go to the red line in the Tiburon. Hope this helps.
