Obviously a 3S-GE... a 3S-GTE could be tuned to a nice 500 whp, which would give it... well, a sub 9-second 0-60, anyways. Lmao

Thanks you. Not that I'd buy myself a Prius at this point, I'd rather go for a tiny 4-cyl with a massive turbo, but the Prius is a fairly good car for people who dont plan on hooning.

I can't afford it. so ha! wait... i dunno if the jokes on me then

SWEET, MY NOMINATION MADE IT!!

MR2, of course!

This. A bit less "Vive Le Quebec Libre", and a bit more "Voulez-vous couchez avec moi ce soir?"

This is why I have you heartclicked

Depends on the MR2 - Crank the boost and you can hit 300 rwhp, in a 2800lb car. Plenty fast, even compared to an M3

On one hand, yes, you should usually buy the 2nd year of a new model to avoid the little kinks and whatnot. On the other hand, it can backfire too - My dad bought the current gen Tucson when it came out back in 2010. Someone rear ended him a few weeks back so the dealership gave him a 2012 loaner while his was being…

On sales taxes, btw, Quebec is at 14.975, to Nova-Scotia's 15. So yes, you guys pay 0.025% more sales tax than we do, I will concede :)

Your last point is pretty much why I'm annoyed with out provincial government and the amount of corruption in this province.

YES!!! Blacktop, 6-speed, some coilovers and a set of R1R Toyos would make it a beast in the right hands

you can double your horsepower (at minimum) for maybe an extra $150 (4A-GE from an MR2 or corolla - Early models had 112 hp, and they peaked at 170 for the blacktop 20-valves). At the same time, 2800 is a wee bit much... but if everything else is in good shape...

but it'll do that 0-60 regardless of snow, sleet, rain, ice, mud, sand, and floods. :P

I bought my MR2 for $800, and the motor and whatnot, maybe an extra 2500... so for therefore, those tires cost...11x my car

I live in Canada. Snow 6 months of the year, prohibitively high insurance/registration costs...

This. and throwing in a 3S swap puts it past those two in straight-line performance, if you've got the patience for it ;)

Hey, fat chicks need love too! That's what fat men are for!

yes. yesyesyesyesyes!
