I wouldn't worry, last year driving an elise in France, belgium and Holland i found a got an incredible amount of interest everytime we stopped (4 elises in convoy & a GT3).

It even got to the point where i was driving along the french motorway and kids were taking pics as they overtook!

I'm sure he didn't mean any harm and will probably aspire to get something like your car in the future, we've all been teenagers right?

Go over to europe particularly France and you'll get loads of attention. This could be partly due to the MR2's name which doesn't translate so well into French! ;)

F***ing dipshits but then it it was expected it was gonna end up on there at some point . The only thing that winds me up is the fact that a trusted member on toyota forums posted about it on there as i know the guy that posted that thread. Really stooping to a low level , they can make fun and laugh all they want but most of those low forms of life couldnt afford an mr2 turbo.

I find it highly ammusing how many people like my car and the spoiler and even though the car isnt finished yet, but those members pretty much bash every single car thats got a kit on or the spoiler is higher than 3cm off the back end.

At the end of the day im not a barry, i dont look like one
and the only reason they post things like this is for attention seeking
poor children such a shame.

I get it all the time. Gets a bit boring, even annoying, after a while.

I know how celebs feel about papparazzi now. :lol:

Chill out ..

You first off said that you didn't want your pic to appear on that site .. you then laid into him .. if it'd have been me I'd have been a bit more harsh .. he didn't even post the pic, just pointed out that you were scared of the slating (which never happened).

I've had peeps taking pics of my car (could have been due to the granny killer front spoiler and 3 foot flames) and if they appear on the net, so what? If i didn't want people to see my car, it'd be in the garage.

Thats ammusing Bibbs the minority, i wonder why oh its not TOC
you know what he was doing, and i know why he was doing it
if you cant see that fact your as dumb as the management
on toc.

:roll:


I remember veilside_MR2 his car appeared on barryboys, and it was not nice he got far more slated than i did... and did veilside like it? NO he didnt
as i said i didnt want my car appearing on barryboys, if it happened it happened... but i didnt want some guy starting it off just cause he lost an argument on toc.

BLOODUK dont worry about it, if you hadn't seen it and were none the wiser so what?
if someone posts a pic of it on the net who cares? at least its on the net for peep to see, whether they like it or not its not your concern, you don't spend your dough for their benefit its to look different from other mr2's.
it dont matter who/why they did it,

as many here would agree nice car

Okay - just so I can clear things up here.


Blood posted this same topic on TOC - to which i replied 'dont worry about it, what do you care what they think anyway'

After he had posted a picture of his car, I tried to explain he had nothing to worry about..


That post on BB, was intended as a 'TOLD YOU SO' - which it pretty much is, as apart from 2 people who dont like his spoiler, they didnt say a bad word..

I think you overreacted here Blood, and im sorry if it caused you any distress - but look - they havent insulted your car, as I told you, you had nothing to worry about.....

im not going over there
and stooping to their level , if they want to bash cars
that are faster than most of them can afford or drive
who gives a toss ;)

At the end of the day the only barryboys are themselves
they should stick to novas and fiestas not performance cars :lol: :lol:

Yeah they are all ******s there. They just need to grow up, and the funniest thing is these people are not kids! It seems they have nothing better to do than slag off people with modified cars, their owners and whether or not they have accidents etc. They couldn't care less! Oh well maybe they should realise there's a whole new world outside the internet! lol

Yes - But why stick a pointless drag coefficient increasing spoiler on a car as attractive as an MR2?

Please - no ludicrous claims of individuality!
