Yep, looking forward to it. Think they might up grade the brakes? I wish I had one of those in my garage!

Bummer, the guide lied. A MR2 is a nice car, but I don't fit in one of those little things.

And Motor Trend wants my credit card!!!!

Show #3 next week 10/17
I didn't sign up for "free" trial either, since when I did it for Netflix I was paying even after cancelling [scams]
Maybe if I get depressed and can't wait...

HaHa! They went right to the glove test (!)
Complained about PCV rebuild, but crappy job showing it.
I wouldn't imagine the valuation is accurate ($10K??) (on any of their cars)

For the 1995, it is not just the PCV but the EGR and the manifold needs to be cleaned from all of the carbon black. What about the seats, especially the driver's that the belt wears off?

I would have imagined that they would have had the turbo rebuilt, front and rear suspension bushings and the AC evaporator! Of course, it would have been a California car and the evaporator would have been replaced at least once before.

Too bad they didn't convert it to a clutch, that would have been fun!!
