The picture above is of Loki, the God of Mischief. He's been updated for modernity and Mischief no less, in an ultra clean iconic look. To this end, and in His honor, my 'Mischief Machine' no longer wears it's former badging and identification with Teckademics. *It has been completely De-Teckified and Re-Mischiefied. Now instead, and more appropriately so, it wears it's new vinyl applications like the proverbial tattoos that adorn the flesh of so many tuners these days!
For all those that seek Mischief & Mayhem in their respective tricked out toys,...all hail Loki!
May His Mischief reign forever!
The MR2 Turbo is often referred to as a "Baby Ferrari", and it's base 200-horsepower (USDM) rating is nearly identical as the earliest fuel-injected, two-valve per cylinder Ferrari 308 GTS's was. *Interestingly,...had Ferrari been building the early 1980's 308 GTS model at the same time the MR2 Turbo was on the market, the Toyota would have actually been faster! That's proof positive that power to weight ratio will not only prevail, but determine ultimate performance!
