POP UP - UP AND DOWN HEAD LIGHTS!!!! hahaha. I love how you mentioned the "rap" song. that is so awesome! I just found you, I am so glad I did! times to binge watch.
It is obvious by your smile that you are more than proud of MR-2 and all the effort that you have invested into MR-2 and that you are happy with the results! Congrats Sarah, you GORGEOUS car Mom!!🦁 NEVER quit!!!
Having followed this project from the very start, I am so proud of you Sarah. Proud of you sticking to this, overcoming most every problem. You have every right to be proud of your handiwork. I congratulate you. Love and respect.
Sarah your videos are absolutely amazing. What you have done with this car is a true example very fine craftsmanship and workmanship. You overcame many many obstacles and never gave up to produce a Masterpiece project. It is truly a reflection of your character and shows the world how awesome you are, you rock Sarah!
I grew up in my dads auto body shop and loved it when a "mister 2" came in for repairs. Thats what my dad called the mr2. I really like yours! Have fun fixing it up.
Started following you when you were doing simple detailing, and now look at you and Mr Dos...the upmost respect is due for your determination and commitment, through tears and joy, in the end it looks fantastic and is testament to what you can do when you absolutely refuse to give up no matter how dark things can seem sometimes....well done Sarah you really are a truly inspirational and beautiful person xx
So, so pleased for you that you've been able to make this video and able to get out there and ENJOY the car. Mr Dos is an absolute credit to you, absolutely amazing dedication and work and looks just superb. Well done
Really cool journey! Binge watched the whole build and has be worried about taking on my own MR project… But some really cool info so thank you and we’ll done, Mr Dos is beautiful!
I watched this a few months ago but had to watch it again because you were so happy! I can't wait for your review now that you have replaced all those suspension parts and get it aligned.
Hi Sarah, I've been a subscriber for years... I don't usually comment because I know you have so many other comments to go through. I just wanted to say congratulations on how the mr dos has turned out. I have watched you go through pain and elation owning project cars myself I know the feeling well done!
Congrats Sarah. The smile on your face is the same smile i get when i drive my MR2. Despite all of the struggles working on these cars is, it is worth it. I have exactly the same seats and love them.
Sarah I'm a recent subscriber but have binge watched your 68 mr. dos vids like a season of GOT. The end result looks great and it was an adventure watching the process. The paint is on point, the fogs look great, the black slats in the grill and trim work great. The wheels aren't my fav but it's your dream/vision not mine. IMO your attention to detail and passion to make the final product of your vision come true kept me watching. Don't apologize for yourself and don't worry about what your viewers want for content. Push forward and we'll follow your journey. The struggle is your content opportunity not the end product.
Having watched you battle all the issues and keep swinging hard to overcome them all, I am so happy for you to get Mr. Dos running like it should! Kudos to you!!
Love this !!! I’ve had over 40 pre 80’s Celicas, 2 Mr2s & 7 Supra’s- 1 mk1 and 6 mk3’s. I’m now in Lexus and corvette. Toyota is still my first love!!!
Been following along since the day you bought Mr.Dos and you had 20K followers. It’s great to see you finally enjoy somewhat of a payoff video! Major props for not giving up on him. 💪🏻
All your hard work has paid off! Definitely your baby! It’s so cool to finally get to see a review of Mr. Dos!!!! Great job. Now to get to the next phase!!! Much respect to you as I like the MR2 but that tiny engine bay looks so difficult to work in. But you, you persevered and got the job done!! I don’t know about anyone else but I really appreciate all the work you’ve done it’s inspiring 🙌👏😎
I’m happy that you’re happy 😃. Been watching you vicariously put together this Mr2 as I had one of the original Mr2. Brings me back to my long lost youth. Im
Congratulations! It's so awesome to see that you've finally achieved what you set out to do with the car, once the little tiny issues you mentioned about are sorted, this specific special mr2 is gonna be one hell of a car!! Be very proud of what you've done!
I can not believe I just found your channel! I must say you're absolutely adorable and I think I'm in love! Lol! I can't stop watching! Thanks for all the informative videos! You're the best! Keep doin what you do because you do it so well!
All your hard work and tenacity is paying off. Just the joy in your face is the best reward. I really hope you enjoy your accomplishment. Great review.
Wow! Mr. Dos is a super CLEAN example! And he seems really well sorted and sounds amazing! Congrats! Finally, someone who hasn't swapped in a Honda engine in an MR2! THANK YOU!!! Lol. **subscribed** You almost inspire me to finish my MR2 project! I say almost because I seem to have impenetrable mental block when it comes to working on it. Lol But this is definitely motivation!
Kids in my hs would have killed to drive this back then, amazing to see it now, awesome job! Seriously such a perfect blend of updates and original. That's the sweet spot!
That's a beautiful result Sarah and it brings me back. I owned a '91 Jap import T-bar back in the day. One difference I remember is that the 'MR2' logo on the back lit up luminous green in the dark, just so the people behind could see what you were driving :) . That was cool. I'm not sure if that was stock on the Japanese cars or an after-market mod. They were a fun car and I hope you get many thousands of miles of joy in it. As for your skills, determination and sheer hard work. You put the rest of us to shame. Awesome work Sarah.. well done.
Finding this channel is like finding a gem. I love your videos and your sense of humor, your jokes are subtle but funny 😄. This channel is very informative plus of course you always look gorgeous.
As a former Factory Rep for Toyota Motor Corporation, Your little MR2 was what we referred to as a Little Japanese Ferrari. It was always one of our favorite Cars! Toyota didn't sell enough so it was eventually discontinued. The MR2 that you own IMO was the very best MR2 we ever produced. Wish you the best with your little Awesome sports car!
What a great looking car. When I got out of college, my first new car was a 1992 Eagle Talon Tsi. I really wanted the MR2, but it was notably more expensive...I’ve always had a soft spot for these.
Hey Sarah you really did a excellent job on the MR2 I remember when you first go it to what it's is now the car looks super clean and sounds excellent keep up the awesome work.
Man how bad did you tear up making this video. I think you did a amazing job on that car it sounds amazing for a 4 cylinder. At the end of the day it is crazy to see where that car has come and love sweat and tears put in it, you my dear are the ultimate car girl great job. Can't wait to see what the focus turns into
Hey Sarah, I usually don't comment on any videos, but after binge-watching almost all your video's I had to make a couple, 1st, hats off to you for your persistence in doing the job right, (I'm OCD myself, so I know the feeling) a commodity that's usually overlooked, 2nd here's an easy way to time your cars if you've removed the distributor, with the engine ready to fire #1 ( you can put the timing mark at 5-10º to get even closer) remove the wire from #1, put a spark plug in the wire, ground the plug, turn the ignition on, rotate the distributor until plug fires, (go back & forth a couple of times to get it close) snug up the bolt & start, you should be close enough to fire w/out spitting fire.. I've used this method on numerous cars & it puts you in the ballpark. Hope this helps in any future builds. Keep up the great work!!
Buddy of mine had a Red manual non turbo 1.8 L in 1985 .. it got around 25 mpg. Sharp car then, still sharp today. Congratulations on keeping the MR2 alive!
Just finished watching the playlist on the MR2, binge watched over a week 👌 Fair play to you Sarah, very impressed with your dedication, knowledge and attention to detail 👏 I felt your pain at times during that build, but what an awesome result 👍 Now to binge on the rest of your videos 🙂
I have really enjoyed watching you work on Mr. Dos. I had an 1985 MR2 from 1990 - 2006. Only thing I needed to fix was a starter and two clutches. I sold it with 235,000 miles only because my 15 yo son kept telling me the horrible things he wasted go do with it.
Why did it take me so long to find this channel. I am subbed to so many car channels and the MR2 is my favorite Japanese car. UA-cam needs a better algorithm
This! The end is justifying the means...although (hate to say) you won't ever stop modifying...it's in your DNA as a car enthusiast...Nice! 👍 Edit: enthusiast=nerd
Beautiful build Sarah! Congratulations! 👏👏 I love the stance of it, and the little details always stand out the most. Simple and subtle is always the way to go.
Sooooooo IMPRESSED with what you’ve done!!!👌👌👌,...been watching your progress from time to time over a year. Mr. Dos turned out GREAT and love all the little details that you’ve chosen to upgrade.
Well done Sarah. You have stuck with it so well. Its pushing on through the setbacks that sets you apart. I still don't know how you manage with those fingernails ! I like the nice roarty sound..not too load.

“Sport mode is always engaged” pretty much sums up the mr2 turbo. Congrats on the build, it’s awesome.
POP UP - UP AND DOWN HEAD LIGHTS!!!! hahaha. I love how you mentioned the "rap" song. that is so awesome! I just found you, I am so glad I did! times to binge watch.

Easily one of the most sorted mr2 that’s still out there.
It was really cool to see someone do a job right. Well done!

I used to roll around that stretch between Sierra Vista and Bisbee in my '94 N/A. Great memories! I'm soooo jealous of your build.
Been following along since the day you bought Mr.Dos and you had 20K followers. It’s great to see you finally enjoy somewhat of a payoff video! Major props for not giving up on him. 💪🏻

So glad you decided against the louver. Mr. Dos sounds great.
1.5 beans but the smile on your face says more like 10.5 beans
Brings back a lot of memories (as a passenger in a coworker's MR2). Much simpler time in the 90's.
Finding this channel is like finding a gem. I love your videos and your sense of humor, your jokes are subtle but funny 😄. This channel is very informative plus of course you always look gorgeous.
It's so good to see you being able to finally enjoy all of your hard work
Well done Sarah
I feel like I accomplished something even though I only watched Sarah do all the work....
As a former Factory Rep for Toyota Motor Corporation, Your little MR2 was what we referred to as a Little Japanese Ferrari. It was always one of our favorite Cars! Toyota didn't sell enough so it was eventually discontinued. The MR2 that you own IMO was the very best MR2 we ever produced. Wish you the best with your little Awesome sports car!
What a great looking car. When I got out of college, my first new car was a 1992 Eagle Talon Tsi. I really wanted the MR2, but it was notably more expensive...I’ve always had a soft spot for these.
Unreliability maybe a pain but it keeps life interesting. Congratulations , you've done an amazing job Sarah.
Hey Sarah you really did a excellent job on the MR2 I remember when you first go it to what it's is now the car looks super clean and sounds excellent keep up the awesome work.
This is a 💎 you made. I true labor of love. Beautiful work.

Tons of hard work. You should be proud! I'm new to appreciating Toyota, I always recognize hard work. I have a Tacoma which I Love!!
That looked like the most fun you have had in a car review, fantastic work, cant wait to see where it goes

stumbled on this chanel randomly but staying for the subtle innuendosand fun. nice job, this mr2 is very cool
TODAY IS THE DAY 🙌 it’s all gone on for too long with no review because it’s hard to review a car that kept having issues
6:10 Holy jeez that sounds good!
Buddy of mine had a Red manual non turbo 1.8 L in 1985 .. it got around 25 mpg. Sharp car then, still sharp today. Congratulations on keeping the MR2 alive!
Just finished watching the playlist on the MR2, binge watched over a week 👌 Fair play to you Sarah, very impressed with your dedication, knowledge and attention to detail 👏 I felt your pain at times during that build, but what an awesome result 👍 Now to binge on the rest of your videos 🙂
The design was SO ahead of its time! Well done on finally getting it finished! :)
I had so much fun driving in this with you! After I got out the car I had to readjust my bra straps 😭😂😂😂
Too hot to handle
MICK BETH SO SILLY!!! =)
You put so much hard work on this "boy", and I enjoyed it so much, I wish Could give it more than 1 thumbs up.
I have really enjoyed watching you work on Mr. Dos. I had an 1985 MR2 from 1990 - 2006. Only thing I needed to fix was a starter and two clutches. I sold it with 235,000 miles only because my 15 yo son kept telling me the horrible things he wasted go do with it.
Love the smile when you're happy and having a fun time! ;-) awesome car!!!
Seems like you really enjoyed it. Glad all the hard work is finally paying off. :)
I like just about everything about this car, color, sporty look, and your restoration is just amazing! Nice boost in power!
Congrats! I had one of these back on 1992 and loved it. Thanks for making me old.
I heard a blow off valve? Engine sounds awesome 😎
This must genuinely be the happiest you've ever been on this channel. Youre glowing!
Great video Sarah. It's great to see you enjoying Mr. Dos after all the trials you have been through. The smile on your face says it all. Super job.
Why did it take me so long to find this channel. I am subbed to so many car channels and the MR2 is my favorite Japanese car. UA-cam needs a better algorithm
Proud of you getting your beloved Mr Dos to your review level. Congrats
This! The end is justifying the means...although (hate to say) you won't ever stop modifying...it's in your DNA as a car enthusiast...Nice! 👍
Edit: enthusiast=nerd
I think this my fav review, it’s your work, your ingenuity we are watching. Awesome
Beautiful build Sarah! Congratulations! 👏👏 I love the stance of it, and the little details always stand out the most. Simple and subtle is always the way to go.
I miss that pop up headlight look. I had 3 cars with that look.
1986 Toyota Corolla Sr 5 lift back.
1984 Toyota Supra.
1986 200 SX Nissan lift back.
Hector Pujols eh I always hated them. Even tho I had 3 cars with them. Hated the air drag.
Congrats. It does look really good. I need one of these.
Sarah, Mr Dos is looking the business. Fantastic testament to your spannering skills
Sooooooo IMPRESSED with what you’ve done!!!👌👌👌,...been watching your progress from time to time over a year. Mr. Dos turned out GREAT and love all the little details that you’ve chosen to upgrade.
You inspire me to never give up on my dreams.
Now all it needs is a switch so you can raise and lower the headlights one at a time. That way you can wink at other 90's era cars in traffic.
Well done Sarah. You have stuck with it so well. Its pushing on through the setbacks that sets you apart. I still don't know how you manage with those fingernails ! I like the nice roarty sound..not too load.
im a few years late on this but everything you do from work to reviews is through and concise. You are pretty awesome. congrats on everything, please keep it up. I look forward to all upcoming projects.
