The car standard looks liike a ‘chick’ car, which is basically is from the factory. But, it does have potential, and there are some fairly cheap turbo or supercharger kits for it.

i started looking at some mr2 and mrS forums, but they are all obviously going to be one-sided, so i dont really know where else to look. i like the way they look with a nice lip kit and set of rims, just not sure about responsiveness to mods or what the transmission is like or anything like that. It is pretty weak for a sports car, and i definitely dont have the money right now for a swap, but could get some bolt ons to try to increase performance a little, but if it isnt very responsive to the bolt-ons then it isnt really worth it to me.

does anyone on here own one of these cars?
