Dude 94 MR2 Turbo is hard to find. Are you the original owner?

while its aint no benz, IMHO the MR2 Turbo is the gem of all "beater" car you can find right now. relatively modern body design (ferrari), mid-engine, two seater, rear wheel drive, great potential for upgrades and relativiely light weight. The best thing its very reliable compare to other 90's japanese "supercars" like RX7, 3000GT VR4, 300ZXTT etc

with moderate upgrade the car can run in the 13's very easily

'02 c230 coupe
my cars:

91 tracker soon to be chopped and dropped
78 alfa romeo spider 50% completed in body off restoration should look damn nice when done

I help my brother constantly with his project car as well:
99 miata with every momo accessory made for his car including 17 inch chrome racers and full interior work. He also has the only supersprint racing system in the US. Sounds fabulous, cant wait for mine on the coupe.

GSX is by far the fastest car ive been in. My sisters ex BF had one and he ran low 12's. You cant go wrong with AWD turbo. I say you slam that car though. It'll look alot better.

99 Dodge Dakota R/T. If you have to have a truck, this is a pretty fun one to have. It does however fit in the category of "crude but effective".

Amazing so many cars people have! I have ONE car (shared with my wife): C320. And then a bicycle (Giant) I use for commuting when my wife has the car. Actually, when I shoped for the car I drove around to the dealers on my bicycle.

Avlis, where's the rest of your truck? Just kidding! It reminds me of my ex-girlfriends fathers truck. I used to call it 'uncle daddy's' truck!

Currently, I just have the Benz and my wife's 2000 BMW 323i. They look good in the garage together (of course, mine looks better! ).

I am not doubting you have these cars but you must have one hell of a parking bill in NYC?

Not where I live! Esp. a 94 or 95. I've only seen a few other MKII turbos in my area, trust me odds of owning both are very high at least in the NE where both cars are a rare find. I think there's less the 5000 of your model/year in the country, less than 1000 of the 95s.

That's very low odds, betting odds would be high. I must say I'm suprised that two other members have both. How many miles are on your 94?

Wow, I am so surprised that so many people have so many cars at the same time. I did have a friend have C32 and S2000 at the same time, but not many have more than 1 car.

I sold my Montero Sport and bough the C230K and let's about it. I do like more than just the C230. After reading so many people have more than 1 car to play around, maybe it's time for me to get another one. Maybe a X-type or a X5.

Any one want to share with me the secret of how to own more than 2 lux. cars at the same time?

While we don't own 2 lux cars, we drive two late-model cars half-owned by a bank and a "toy" project that I started when I was 18. Anyway, the answer to your question is this acronym: DINK

Double
Income
No
Kids

We both have marketable skills and we sell them to the highest bidder. Our income is modest but our expenses are low (no kids, no credit card debt, no smoking/drinking/gambling/drugging etc.).

I work with a few guys that jealously asked me how I could afford my C230K. I got the "we must be paying him too much" comments. All of these guys (four total) are the sole income earners in their household and have at least 2 kids. They also live in houses where I live in a modest townhouse. They have to spread one income over 4-6 people. The wife and I spread two incomes over two people. Big difference.
