before I got into mr2s i didn't like cars at ALL but even then i thought the rx7 looked cool. Honestly I think FDs look like crap but FCs are probably one of the nicest looking cars i have ever seen. I like the old school squarish look.

I'm boosting about 6-7 psi on a supercharger. I get anywhere from 24-32 mpg depending on how i drive. Big difference, I know. When gas was 4 bucks + a gallon i drove more efficiently but ever since prices went down i've been more spirited.

but yeaaaa now that my mr2 is going to be garaged i'm looking for a car that I can commute with that is also RWD. wouldn't get a honda unless i absolutely have to... wouldn't want to deal with the type of people on those boards, haha.

but i'm kind of worried about the rotary problem... i'm right when i'm feeling iffy about having such a car as a 'beater', huh?
