Ive been reading about these awesome little cars (thanks moto) for about a year and a half and with the MR2 I need a daily driver, so might as well go with something im familiar with
I left a note on one and it didnt turn out, but a friend of a friend is selling his for 2200$ and is suposedly in good shape. The main thing thats attracted me to this one is the fact hes replaced many many parts which means bringing it back to stock quality wont require 4000$+ - or so I assume before I see it.
He sent me pics and its a nice black with mesh rims - 4 summer and 4 winter tires on rims is another good selling point. The KM's are high at 250,000 but the oil has been changed monthly and its all highway commuter KM;s (I believe this because he lives 50 mins from work)
My main concern is rusty fenders and strut towers in particular - he said the sun roof was the only rusty part but it has been replaced with one from the US. I know the car will need many parts replaced but i can be handy with a wrench and I have a few good toyota friends who are really good guys willing to lend a hand.
Anything else I should look for tonite?
