It's hard but it won't be long until you can get something more powerful and cheaper insurance * +

Mr2's are not powerful cars, the turbo versions are however the Non turbo versions are fine, im not a boy racer just a guy with a passion for engineering and cars ... Its just annoying that all the young s have no preception of speed or consideration that makes gen guys suffer... I guess il research a little further * +
