Preston     $ 0.00 I dont know how much a gen 3 from japan would cost but i have learned a few things about the 95 models.

Acording to sport compact car magazine they only sold 356 in the us that year so they are harder to find than previous years.

they also said that they can go for around 20k for a stock model.
I found mine for 11k.

Good luck Reply With Quote 11-30-2005, 02:10 AM #3 Mr2xsTyle View Profile View Forum Posts Private Message View Blog Entries Visit Homepage Mk2 x sTyle Join Date Nov 2005 Location California Posts 37 Thanks  0 Thanks  0 Thanked in0 Posts Total Contributions For

Preston     $ 0.00 I saw one here:http://www.mr2trader.com/index.php?a=2&b=212

I would check auto trader.

Mine has 125k miles and works very well. If you buy one that is in good condition i dont think you will have much to worry about.

Ncturnal     $ 10.00 Please don't mod a 95. Brian Reply With Quote 12-12-2005, 01:55 PM #9 Fazed Out View Profile View Forum Posts Private Message View Blog Entries Die 4 Dëthkløk Join Date Feb 2005 Location Tulsa, Ok Posts 428 Thanks  8 Thanks  11 Thanked in11 Posts Total Contributions For
Fazed Out     $ 0.00 Yeah, don't mod it... just paint it lime green with orange flames...

I think a gen 3 costs somewhere around 3 grand, plus installation, plus shipping. Not exactly cheap... plus you gotta find someone who can do a good job on the install (I have probs finding people who would even WORK on my 92na for simple stuff) Reply With Quote 12-12-2005, 04:42 PM #10 tigerpee View Profile View Forum Posts Private Message View Blog Entries Cage Fighter Join Date Mar 2005 Posts 636 Thanks  23 Thanks  5 Thanked in5 Posts Total Contributions For

Alex     $ 0.00 Yeah I wouldn't recomend buying a 95 unless you can find a good deal. Get a '94 instead. It doesn't really make any sense to put a gen3 in if you have a perfectly running gen2.

Word to the wise, just because you have 25k to spend doesn't mean you should spend it all. Get your parents to invest some money for you.

BTW, 94 had the Gen 2 as well and still subject to a price jump over the 93.

tigerpee     $ 0.00 yah - forget the car, invest it all, then give it to me Reply With Quote 12-13-2005, 01:25 PM #14 Alex View Profile View Forum Posts Private Message View Blog Entries I climb rocks Join Date Feb 2005 Location Atlanta, GA Posts 69 Thanks  0 Thanks  0 Thanked in0 Posts Total Contributions For
Alex     $ 0.00 On second thought, you won't be able to find a 94 since Brian has bought them all!! Just kidding.

But if I had tons of money I would try to buy a '94 since you get the painted sideskirts/front lip, 94+ tails, and a few other things over the '93s. Don't mess with a 91 or 92 if you've got some money to spend. At least get a 1993 for the better brakes, tranny, front lip, etc. Reply With Quote 12-15-2005, 05:24 AM #15 KyleScha View Profile View Forum Posts Private Message View Blog Entries Cage Fighter Join Date May 2005 Location Fairfax, VA Posts 225 Thanks  1 Thanks  3 Thanked in3 Posts Total Contributions For
KyleScha     $ 0.00 yeah if your planning to mod the car dont get a 95. Its pointless to spend the extra 5 grand on a 95 if your just going to modify it anyway. Half the reason anyone buys a 95 is just to be like hey "ive got a '95 and you dont" That and its a great collectors item Reply With Quote 12-20-2005, 01:07 PM #16 Ozymandias View Profile View Forum Posts Private Message View Blog Entries Visit Homepage Azure Two Join Date Feb 2005 Location Virginia Posts 457 Thanks  1 Thanks  1 Thanked in1 Post Total Contributions For

What the hell? Stock MR2 turbos don't have any problems. And why do you want to take a super expensive, rare 95t if you are just going to molest it by swapping out the motor when you get it? Buy a 93T and save yourself the money.

And I agree with everyone else, blowing 25k on a car like that doesn't make any sense. All the mony you dump into it to swap out the motor and everything will just ruin the resale value. Just imagine throwing your money in a trash can and setting it on fire. If you MUST spend all the money buy something else like a S2k or something, but my advice is spend half on your car and invest the other half.

Ozymandias     $ 0.00 Clean car, but not even a 95T with 50k miles on the original motor is worth 20k.
