You guys couldn't believe that I'd be without a toy for myself, for long....

here it is:

98 Steering Wheel

drift? an MR2? haha. Try again. Getting that car sideways is nearly impossible. The weight engine being over the rear wheels makes it quite hard. Moreover, if that thing broke loose on you, your not drifting, your spinning.

I'm a big 3SGTE fan, wise buy man. I've done a swap myself. You'll like it a lot more than the RX8. My buddy has one of the fastest in the area over in new york, if you ever need any info or anything, let me know!

sweet car! but yea they are hard as hell to drift.. there's barely any weight in the front and it throws the balance off a lot.. when ur sideways you're gonna lose it.

Drifting is gay, the car is cool.

Good Night

Nice car... I was in Switzerland couple weeks ago and saw an MR2 meet drive by with about 20 cars in the caravan... I love those cars.
Good s***, Noel, good s***.
