914 & MR2 T

[J P Stein]

Gee, it just so happens I have one of each.
The Toda is a 93 turbo.
The teener is a 74 6 conversion.
One is a daily driver and one isn't.
Comparing them is and apples & oranges deal.
If I could only have one car, it would have to be the Toda. Fortunately, I don't have to make that choice.
All those on these pages know the capabilities of the 914.
So, a little bit about the MR2.
I chose it over a 944T due to reliability, design, performance, and the fact that you don't see yourself coming the other way very often. I see more 914s that MR2 Turbos.
Had the MR2 been built in Stuttgart, it would proclaimed as the greatest thing since sliced bread.
I have two cars with "soul" (the other being a 73 911). This means I spend plenty of time laying on the garage floor beneath them looking looking for it.
BTW, the 93 is a much better car than the 91/92. Extreme care must be taken when buying a used turbo car of any manufacture.
$8500 seems like a suspicously low price
