Which MR2 turbo would you buy? Similar price range, I have the money and will make a decision soon.
Also general shit talk about mid-engine cars is appreciated. I've owned and driven 2nd and 3rd gen MR2 N/A.

I own and drive a Fiero Formula.
Just off the top of my head:
- loud rattle from passenger sfront speaker
- incessant creaking behind driver seat area
- rushing "rustling" sound on acceleration
- clicky tapping sound when accelerating
- chirpy squeaking from passenger rear suspension/shock
- groaning front brakes
- hollow echoey sound from belts when running at high-RPMs
- whole spaceframe creaks from going over big bumps
- engine knocks around during fast movements - bad mounts
I'm thinking that KYB shocks wasn't the greatest idea. Where to begin?

When someone says "car", is there any other image in the average person mind than a Honda Accord? It's the most generic sedan that was ever made.

No, not everyone is american. It's not a common sight in europe. It isn't that rare, but it's not common either.

They'll set me up with 4 Quatrac 5s for 180€ with alignment included.
The guy told me they were really good.

i am using ultrac vorti's and ive used the older ultrac sessanta's in the past
dont know what quatrac's are but they are quite a bit cheaper so i expect they are just long life normie tyres

I'm in a bind right now /o/
Need advice.
Currently own two cars, both are not running.
My main car is currently down for an engine rebuild, and a ton of other upgrades. I am hoping to get it finished before fall, but its doubtful. The car is stripped to bare metal ready for paint. My paint buddy isn't available anytime soon, and I cant afford to paint it elsewhere at this point, so its not getting done anytime soon.
My second car is a winter beater that blew its headgasket. At bare minimum it needs a new headgasket, but I have reasons to suspect that I have a warped head, and there is metal in the oil.
My roommate is nice enough to let me borrow his car for work. I just pay for his insurance, and maintenance. Its been like this for 5 months or so, he hasn't asked for it back, but I cant keep borrowing it.
Main car probably wont get done this year, and I cant drive it in the winter anyway.
Winter beater is a pos that I don't want to fix. I feel like I should sell it as is.
What should I do? Spent about $1,000 on a new engine in the winter beater, or buy some new beater for around $1,500-$2,000?
I need two vehicles.
My project car needs another $3,000 or so to finish, any money I spend on a new car, or take time to fix the beater is only going to delay work on my main vehicle.
Pic unrelated.

Why the hell do you people drive with wipers on full blast in the lightest drizzle? Does it not bother you to have them running when your windshield is barely wet?

Nobody does this aside from clueless hamfisted retards. They just slam the stalk with one of their meat hooks and call it good. They have enough fine motor skills to text while plowing into the side of a school bus or smashing someone's granny, but can't be arsed to move a stalk one position.

Sometimes there's a good reason
In my present car, an Octavia, I have a button on the wiper stalk that chooses between 4 intervals on the slowest setting. And they all 4 work.

How would my car look with a Make America Great Again bumper sticker?

>Earlier this week, a 18-year old took her father’s Tesla Model S for a ride with 4 of her friends in Pullach, Germany. She was reportedly driving at an excessive speed and lost control in a turn. The vehicle jumped off-road “and flew 25 meters [82 ft] through the air” and crashed in a field at full speed before rolling over at least once.

What a surprise, a female was driving.

First comment on the birth of a new meme

>>15009408
> the front-end of the Model S is completely destroyed while the cabin itself remains whole. This highlights the importance of a large crumple zone, like the Tesla Model S’ front trunk (frunk), something easier to design with electric vehicles due to the lack of engines and the use of smaller motors
Thank God it was electric! Electric cars win again!

DROP A GEAR AND DISSAPEAR
gf >you don't have any ambition, why don't you go to school and etc etc
me >because our relationship is expensive and someone has to help you get through school first
gf >well i want a break for the summer, go save some money and figure yourself out
so now not only do i free up enough cash to go back to school, but i'll also be able to upgrade from my current beater. i'm thinking a cl55 amg, should do quite nicely
