its a :bigok: in my book. my oldest brother bought one 5 years ago. a 93 with 14,000 miles on it. i think it only has about 20,000 on it right now. i loved that car before i had my 7. handles great, lots of potential and looks great.

they look kind of funny in real life, they are mad small and just plain weird looking.

Formidable in the hands of a good tuner. I rode in one that had about 400RWHP and it's one hell of a rush.

MR2's rock, either 1st or 2d gen. I thought about getting a first gen before I got my 7. Looking back on it I probably should have, actually. The MR2 probably wouldn't be nearly as troublesome.
