haha Thanks!

I picked it up from an importer in edmonton, DJ Auto

It's got 125xxxkm's on it

Engine and trunk shots may have to wait however, i took these pictures as i was taking it out of the garage and parking it outside and now its covered in snow :(

MK2 MR2s have an exceptionally well balanced chassis.. lots of them making 400-700 whp from that 2.0 also.

youve probably heard of the 3.0 camry v6 swap thats common , theres some videos on youtube of them fitted with superchargers. now those cars make a mean sound

i just want one more now ... :mrgreen:

Nice, love these cars as well! Not fond of RHD though. If I got one it would definitely be LHD. Hope it serves you well! Oh, and dont park it out in the snow!

It's at a friends place, it had to be moved out of his shop for something else. But The mister two will be alright, it has a blanket for the cold weather :P and its on an acreage so no salt will touch it at all

Haha we are both gonna end up with a MR2 by the looks of it haha.

I LOVE the seats in these cars, suede inner with leather outer.. 2 seater, turbo :)

Take good care of it man!

Nice! I considered getting one, but got the MX-3 for the cargo room. Having to shift w/ my left would drive me nuts. When I was looking, exactly half of them were rolled over. Be careful of the snap over steer!

Haha yea i already experienced the snap over steer when i was bringing it home. two 360's into the ditch nothing was damaged though made it out without a scratch. Thanks black ice for that one...

Shifting with your left hand isn't much of a big deal(at least not for me) only thing that gets annoying is the wiper/signals
