What kind of bodykit and wide fenders does it use? ...this is the only picture I found of this car and I think I'm in love! If anybody has more pics of this car (or larger resolution), please post them.

I know it isn't a very good picture but it's all I can find.

thanks!

I honestly don't know much about 240s. I own an MR2. After seeing that car and seeing how crazy the aftermarket is for the 240sx (2jz or LS1 swaps!), I'm gonna get me a 240sx!!!

Man, if you lived near Texas, I'd trade you! I want a T-top sw20 so bad! I'm so tired of the 240 scene...

The XS Power intercooler sits nicely behind the Version Select 6 front bumper.

Just look at how the wheels sit, they are tucked under Origin 50mm rear fenders. The fenders flow nicely into the Origin rear bumper.

On to the side of the car, we see Version Select 5 side skirts that are mated to a pair of Origin 20mm front fenders to accommodate the larger front wheels.

LMAO, I thought when I read the thread description that it was going to be a little challenging. Man, I'm sorry to laugh, but if you don't know/recognize this car then there's something wrong. But I guess since you're into MR2's then that may be excusable. The 240 world welcomes you. It's the best world to be in

It's easy to say this if this is the only one you're familiar with, but when I first got the idea to got rid of my 240's, the MR2 forums, the Miata forums and the Lexus forums were great! They didn't have nearly the problems we have with fanboy riff-raff...

OP, lets see pics of your MR2! It looks stunning in your avatar. What's done to it? Ever consider doing a 2gr-fe swap?

simmode1: every forum has their share of ballsacks.

it's cool that you know about the 2gr swaps that are taking place with the mr2! amazing swap but damn pricey though.

since you asked...

Thanks for the pics! Very nice! I research the hell out of any platform I consider moving to, so that how I found out about all kinds of interesting MR2 stuff like popular swaps, aggressive wheel fitment and not lifting in corners (lol!).

But yeah, Brad Bedell lives in my town and helps MR2 guys around here with their more difficult projects and we've got a badass MR2 specialty shop nearby in Denton called ATS Racing that everybody seems to love.

I'd just love to be able to drive down the street in a more elite/rare or prestigious (yet still cheap! ) tuner car than my s13 or my s14. If you drive up to a car meet around here with something uncommon like a slammed MR2, MX5 or SC400 you are gonna drop jaws. No one even bats an eye at 240's anymore...

visit upstate ny, as in 10 min from canada... 240's are super rare here,yet i managed to find my 6th one.... 4 of which were at least 2 hour drives one way, the last was a 3 hour, and my buddy just picked up a kouki near boston, which was a 16 hr round trip. despite the fact that every part i need usually requires usps, i enjoy the rarity of the 240's here.

btw, sexy a** mr2
