I remember seeing that MR2 on Ebay. What is kinda scary, is if you looked at all the manuals that came with it and/or emailed the guy, it is actually possible that it works! Wish I'd saved some of that stuff, like to see some videos of the thing in action, heh.
That first car is a Toyota MR2 that was sold on E-Bay about a year ago. It is Jet-Powered and it has no regular engine. It was top speed tested at 85mph. It was not meant to be a rice mobile, it was kind of a science experiment.
