Thinking for selling the MR2 for one of these...

[Michaelmr2]

Now that I am in Colorado, I want to experience the mountains a little better than just driving on the paved roads up there.

I am thinking of trading the MR2 for a Pinzgauer, and old Swiss made European military vehicle. See pic below.

These things are badass 4x4 or even 6x6 they are nearly unstopable off road. I know I will miss my mr2 badly though, so I am torn. Thoughts?

Only if the gathering is at Mesquito pass, or some other spot that a 6 wheel drive vehicle is required.

:roflmao: I dont think it even has 100hp, but it has 12 gears forward and 2 reverse, so lots of torque.

No turbo, no NOS. I wonder how that would work.

Yeah, it can carry up to 10 people too, so perfect for tailgating, or camping out for an early start at the slopes.

For those of you interested, Check out www.unimogvideo.com These things are unreal!!

So what would you guys pay for a Red 93 Turbo with 90k miles.

It has A-Pillar boost Gauge (single pod), Good stereo platform needs a new head unit (I still have the 3n1 stocker too) 2 Rockford amps JL subs etc... (back in the day it won some contests)
I have an upgraded turbo waiting to be installed (to4e 46 trim) the stock turbo is still very good. Blitz BOV and the stock one too. Greddy TT, HKS e-z boost controller. HKS exhaust, Brand new Yokohama tires on the rear very good Nitto 450's on the front. This car is clean and mean. Mobile 1 synth. since 30k miles.

Your thoughts on what I should ask?

Ahhh dont you wish you had one of these now? I hate driving in the snow!!!

[flyboy]

You don't think that's just a TAD overkill for Denver's "snow"?? The MR2 might be a crappy car for the snow, but this seems a little over the top. Besides, 10 gallons/mile might get expensive on the ski trips. ;)

[torgan]

you gonna drive it to topeka in june? i think you should try and talk bill into letting you get in on the drag racing......

[flyboy]

Are you talking to Me??

I'm not sure if I can go yet. It sounds like a kick in the ass. I'm not sure I would do all that well in the drag race. Beating the crap out of my car like that doesn't really appeal to me.
