  • 3 cars one has to go!!

    Ok just bought a Jeep Wrangler 2000 model.
    So it has to stay it's the work vehicle.

    I also have my 96 firebird:
    3.8, 5spd, rim/tire package, free/custom intake, catback, T/A rear bumper, black w/black window tint, stereo upgrades, XM.

    91 toyota mr2:
    turbo 5spd, t-top, full body kit (molded) except front right which my dad backed into with his chereokee busting the mold and slightly dented fender, suspension/1.5" drop, it also has down pipe and full exhaust, upgraded intercooler, two electric fans on engine bay hood, boost controller, and boost gauge, A/F ratio gauge, super sequnetiaal blow off valve, egt gauge, sparco seats awaiting install. And some other little stuff. Although the engine spun a rod or bearing, and needs a rebuild, or swap 3.1 toyota v6 then supercharge??. Um anyways.

    I work out of state so which ever car I keep will be mostly a track, and weekend driver back home. All the vehicles are paid for. And while I have put alot of money into the mr2, I don't want to sell it, and I don't want to sell the bird because it's actually a "road vehicle" if I want to switch and use it for a few weeks for work.

    I can't keep both, and don't know what to do. If I sell the mr2, I'll lose alot of money I've put into it, and a great track/autocross car, which I'd really like to get more into.
    If I sell the firebird, I'll lose the ability to "switch" work cars, as the firebird can take the mileage, far better then the lowered mr2. And it's more comfy, and bigger/safer for ever day use.

    or I could sell them both, start saving, and buy what I really really want, an NSX next summer :D

      tough though because mr2 has potential. but the bird is a much better looking car.

        yeah, i think it might be a bit biased, but really people. I love the f-bodies, this has been my 3rd, counting the 2 of my dad's I drove back in H.S. and college, they were his I just got to drive them everyday. I love my firebird, but I'm leaning on letting it go, maybe. I'd love to keep them both, but can't.

          personally, if you could use the jeep for a daily driver for a bit, i'd sell them both and save towards somthing you really want to drive

            Why an NSX? Get a new Z06 Vette. Probably gonna cost you the same, but you'll get much better performance...

                Exactly, about a 96 model with decent miles.

                          If I'd sell the mr2, what do you think I can get out of it, with the blown engine?? The firebird?? I was thinking it may be better to buy another 3sgte to drop in, then sell?


                          I know we are all die hard f-body people here, but you all do realize the mr2 would smoke the f-body right??
