I chose R34 because SW20 MR2 GTs weren't listed :)

R34 for me because it has the 'tougher' looking front end than the R33 IMHO.

I like the MR2 SW20 models (1998 gen 3 turbo) because their mid-mount engine, RWD and targa top. Would have to be red :)

Stagea's are pretty cool, theres a sik white one I see in Newcastle sometimes... dark black tint, black wheels and stuff. 8-)

I knew there were a few cars I forgot, dunno how I forgot the EVO's though! But the poll only lets you have 10 options, so it wouldn't fit anyway :-P

As of last night at drift practice I have gone off R32s unless they are GTRs, just all of the sudden lost what interest I had in RB20s... Small turbo options and no torque.
