My old MR2

[gregrego]

Does anyone know who owns my old MR2? It changed hands a couple times and ended up in north Calgary, I spotted it 2 years ago on Metis trail looking great.

I attached a picture of what it looked like before i sold it.

It is aquamarine pearl, with black work XD-9 and a twin exhaust, very loud car, immaculate paint.

[J.M.]

120% sure I saw this up in Coventry 2-3 years ago, younger guy driving it iirc.

Did you sell this to a guy from Camrose?

If so, I think he sold it to a guy up here and then that guy had it up on kijiji at some point.. I was interested in checking it out during that time, but I guess someone bought it before I got the chance to see it.

I haven't seen it up for sale since so I'm assuming it's still here in town.

Yes sold it to a guy in spruce grove, was too much car for him, sold it to a guy in camrose who had a supra and another mr2, he sold it to guy in Calgary.

Have been keeping my eye open for a clean LHD chassis for years but haven't found the right one.

*sigh*
Another, "I sold my MR2 and want to get another good one back" statement.

Greg, I've seen the car around Calgary. Not 100% sure but not many Aquamarine ones around. It definitely didn't look as good as when you owned it. About last summer. Needed a polish for sure.

I saw it on Kijiji probably the same time J.M. saw it.

Sold mine last summer as well.
@mike, when did you sell yours? I thought you were in the middle of building it

My buddy here has a LHD 93 Turbo that be picked up a couple years ago. Yellow, all original/no mods, low miles, factory paint - everything. Garage kept by the same family his whole life till he bought it. He left if out last night in front of his house and some fucks shot the side up with what looks like a pellet gun. So much for original paint..... the ONE time he forgot it outside.

Sorry, not sold. I realize my post was confusing and edited it.
I had thought about it a few times in the past. But some upstanding MR2 citizen talked me out of it.

Nice ones are becoming more and more rare. Although I will say, the MR2 community as a whole is essentially dead. US and Canada. Not much happening and very little by way of posting.

its sad. someone help me get mine back on the road!!! need more mechanical know how haha

A lot of the forum activity at MR2OC seems to have moved to the FB group.. there is plenty of daily posting on there.

[mr2mike]

Yea. Don't have a fb account.
Seems to be where everyone has flocked as of past few yrs. FB and Instagrm.

Car groups and staying in touch with ppl who have moved are the only reason I stay on FB. It sucks because there's no archiving of threads, can't search, nowhere near the utility of a forum. But, it's quick!

Don't sell yours....trust me, I regret selling mine all the time.

Here's my old one:



The guy I sold it to, his kid is on here and I saw it up for sale a while back, but haven't seen it since nor do I remember the kids name. Clem24 messaged me and asked if that was my old one.

If I could remember his handle, I'd like to buy the car back. I fucking miss her...

[gregrego]

Damn.. OH well..

Yes guys, don't sell your mr2's...

[Twin_Cam_Turbo]

Anyone have any nice AW11s they want to sell me ?

[Seifer]

The problem with the FB pages for mr2s is they are over 90% idiots and only a couple of decent people with know how. I need to finish some projects around the house so I can start playing with my rolling shell project.

[gregrego]

Is mr2oc dead??

I've spent years wrenching on my mr2, learned lots. If anyone here needs a hand I have a garage and a full set of tools and would love to help.

[mr2mike]

Not dead but Bill Strong sold it to a forum running company. They've changed it so it's generating ad revenue everywhere. It's a pain. Especially from a phone.

There's a skin to allow for it to look like the old forum.
