I had an FD for a long time, and I'll buy another one after college. But, that "higher end car" usually result's in, higher maintenence cost's, higher insurance rate's, not to mention, all the unwanted attention from people/police I got. And as far as uniqueness, I don't see too many 450+whp MR2's running around.

I've seen a few tuner's in Japan, (Top Secret and Trial) use the 3s in MK4 Supra's with good success.
