It's very nice to drive, the standard seats are probably the best i've ever sat in for a factory item and the suspension, whilst providing a lot of grip is also pretty compliant for our roads.
I'd actually recommend booking a test drive at your local Toyota dealer as you will probably find it quite interesting. There are a lot of people saying it's underpowered and yes it wouldn't hurt to have a little more power but IMO it has enough power off the forecourt to have fun and the aftermarket for this car is already massive.

I'm not likely to modify mine much as it's my daily driver and and money I spend on modifying that means i have less to spend on the Supra or MR2.
The most i'm ever likely to do is de-cat and airfilter.

It's done. You may need to login again.
Actually one mod I do have for my GT is the registration 'GT06 BYE'

Don't hurry as the MR2 just failed its' MOT today.
Thankfully just needs some rusty edges on the drivers door sorting and a new CAT. I don't like the styling on that Supra at SVA, but it has some nice parts on it. Do you know the mileage?

sorry to hear about the mr2 I am not too keen on the styling either I think I am gonna get a cheap mx5 to track for 6 months or so and continue saving then start looking again and I need to sell my 350 soon my insurance runs out mid Feb let me know when when the mr2 is ready and hopefully Ill have the mx5 by then and we can have a day at Brands.
