not every 1 wants a kitted up car some cars are nice enuff as they are bog standard such as mr2's supras, there are plenty u can do to them. but once u start kitting a car up other things have to be kitted to meet the standard tis like a disease that spreads thru the car.

I paid 3700 for it.

dont want to do any of the big jobs like new coilovers to lower it or body kits etc cause its just a stop gap till i get the turbo version or a supra. In the summer with the roof off going round the b roads i dont think many cars can beat the experiance.
