*shrugs* I kinda like it without the spoiler - once you get used to it - I dont own an MR2, but yeah. Probably because you get so used to looking at all the ones with spoilers.

The owner of the red turbo is my flatmate, I give him crap all the time cos he drives like a nanna.

The car still has the 12.5psi fuel cut as well so hes not dodgy like me :lol:

Who are you to be calling someone a wuss, you drive a 20v :P

Or perhaps he made the sensible descision with financial interest in mind and thought "Do I need a daily driver that will cost me more?" ;)

So here we have someone saying that it takes a REAL man to get the best out of an engine with less power, but also calls another man a 'wuss' for choosing the model with less top end power? :P Tad on the hypocrytical side, wouldn't you say? ;)
