I say this everytime that someone is thinking about selling their Celi for an older car to mod, but here it is again... Right now you have a car that is going to last you for YEARS without any trouble. Now you are considering buying an older car with more miles to (i assume) heavily modify the engine. Do you have any idea how much more time you're going to spend fixing things? How much sooner that car is going to finally bite the dust than your Celi would? Wrenching on cars in your spare time is fun. Really, it is. But it's not fun when your car won't start and you have to get to work or class. And it's not fun when random expensive parts break down. Save up until you can buy a NEW car that you can mod to your desire... or until you can buy a used car to wrench with on the side of your Celi. I'm just a crosshair I'm just a shot away from you

But Christian its sad to see you selling your car. But you are right MR2s own! No I havnt but i imange it holds just as much as a celica. And it looks bigger so I assumed more room. Either way sometimes its allways better to have the back seats. I use them often.
