The 2ltrs were import only. Only heard of around 10 cars with that engine in the uk.

BOOSST I have to be honest, I don't know the Supras well enough to say which mark is which.. however, it was this shape

purplewitch The mkiii was cute .. bought mine because it reminded me of KITT in knightrider lol.. but those pop up lights don't withstand a witches need to make them pop up .. and up .. and up .. and up
lol Thats because Toyota had a habit of borrowing design cues from Europe and America back then, the MK3 is a Trans Am copy exterior and interior - the MK4 also borrows from the Trans Am F-Body but not as much.
I completely agree with certain cars just getting under your skin, I love the MR2's, and Supras and would have one out herein a heart beat if it wasn't for the cost, Supras in the USA fetch insane money - $20k for a basic TT with very high miles.
This Trans Am of mine is such a surprise, I have a feeling I will keep him for a very long time, the experience is that good - not at all what I thought American cars would be like.

Nah I haven't mate, mines pretty much 100% stock at the moment. However I do intend to either turbo or supercharged further down the line.

my freind has a type r and hes just fitted a grouppe m,sounds nice
was quite expensive tho,only thing that puts me off the s2000 a bit,is when winter comes and its rear wheel drive,alot bmws and other rear wheel drive cars seem to get stuck in last years snow and that,i hate bmws anyway so it was quite funny :Shooting:

Indeed any rear wheel drive will be a pain in the snow or really bad weather if your not carefull. However, I bought a one series 2.0d for my other half a while back and that is without a doubt, superb to drive I must say
However, i do have an Audi avant, quattro sport and in the snow last year I was driving past a lot of big 4 wheel drives that were stuck:blink: Simply cannot fault the Audi for its drivability in all weathers..

i spose drifting about in a rear wheel drive car in the snow would be fun tho :tongue_smilie: so guess its not all bad!
