    For a 28 year old car that is just stunning. In fact, it's stunning full stop! A lot of the project cars on UA-cam are just thrown together and they hide what they do - or more to the point - what they don't do and what they bodge. Either that or they just throw money at it. You Sarah, you did it yourself and you did it better than most would do, it's been a pleasure to watch.

    Real good video. Hands down, you have, by far , the neatest Toyota MR2 I've ever seen. The hard work and detail you've put into it shows and it's paid off. My hat is off to you and your roommate. From one US Air Force veteran to you both, I appreciate your service. God bless you both. By the way, I'm doing a restoration / modification on a 1966 Chevy C-10 Custom pickup truck. I also have some more parts on the way this week. I look forward to taking mine to the local Cars and Coffee in Eden , North Carolina after I complete it. Take care.

Your individual flair makes every episode fun to watch, your car reviews are unique, the old style vlog days and q&a sessions were intimate and revealing. Especially last Halloween. You’ve proven yourself more than capable and fanatical about detail, which is ideal for automotive work. I’ve always been a car and driving enthusiast and your channel is the best watch in many ways. Keep it real & remain true to yourself xx

    One quick tip Sarah that worked well for me was using a steamer to remove the fully tinted (Texas truck and so I understood the requirement) windshield in my brothers gen 1 Raptor during restoration/repair. Peeled off like a wet paper towel , smooth, and just a wipe over following. Superb work on this project! Late getting on board but now subscribed, thank you!

    You are damn to the point with your comment on not being a TV show. Actually I rather watch interesting channels on YT (like Sarah -n- Tuned and others) than watching any channel on TV. I find TV totally boring and out of touch with reality these days. I've never owned a MR2 but have owned several Toyota's over the years. In the early 90s I was dreaming about having a red MR2 like Mr Dos, but it never happened. Thank you Sarah for putting out great content in your channel, highly appreciated.

Your camera shots are spot on, your music is, as always, just plain great, and you are just yourself, and that's very important. I don't think any of your followers would want to loose that. And why not actual collaborations. This could be very good on content.

It's fun to watch your you tackle your cars and hopefully you'll learn to tackle your life. I realize youtube is how your live. How your live outside that world will help you live here on this channel. Your technical knowledge is amazing. Behind the camera, it could be amazing too. We're all doing o.k. watching and learning from your videos. YOU have to be o.k. watching and learning from your life. (lecture over). Be proud of who you are and what you do.

    Sarah - I truly respect your attitude and abilities. In keeping with your commitment to keep things straightforward, can I suggest that your next project be something truly different - maybe an old school hot rod>

    You definitely, definitely don't need to worry about "proving yourself" by doing all the work yourself. You have shown that you can do big, daunting projects. So don't be afraid to bring in some help from time to time. No one will think any less of you, and it might make your work life a little easier.
