GT86 in, MR2 turbo going.
Still love the MR2 but have decided to give it up. Absolute fortunes spent and fun had but the 86 is now taking priority and have decided not to spend any more money on the tubby.
Rebuilt the engine on the tubby added tons of tasteful mods nothing RICE but it’s time to let her go.
Final drive today.

Sad day, don't think the 86 will live up to it.
There is no "it cant be done" only "I cant do it!"

It doesn't but other things come into play eventually. What you want or need from a car changes. When you get older your over it, all you want to do is turn the key and drive it not have to continually work on it and throw money at it. With a newer car all you have to do is an oil change and the occasional air filter and brake pads, all of which are "Fun Jobs", quick to do and relatively clean. The days of crawling under the car and ripping sh1t out and getting covered in dirt and oil are over.
If Subaru release a factory 400Hp STi then its going to be a hard call for me in about 2 years time.
