MRS =/= S2000

if you want raw power then this is not the car u r looking for.. if handling is what u looking for, then yes.

maintenance is acceptable as its using the same engine as altis, unless you have modified it...

I'm sorry but the hair dresser's... receptionist's car.. can't compare with the S2000.

This car is ok. Stock car rides low and moderately fast. Most of the unit in Malaysia is recond and tiptronic transmission from what i know. It has the same engine as the same year Celiza. 2ZZ something engine code.

Cannot compare to S2000. Almost different class. Maybe put next to MX5 more appropriate.

but the mrs's price is a bit low for a 2003 year car.. u better check it out before purchase it...

ask yourself this:

1) are u a hairdresser?
2) are u a girl
3) u don't have any friends?
4) u don't travel at all?

of all YES, then u definitely fits the car, don't think, buy it!

now the serious stuff...

the biggest problem with this car is practicality, u can't fit anything into it if u use it for travel or road trip.

I guess you still don't get the joke.. it's not one man't meat.. in the automotive world... all agree to point 1.. only thing they can't agree is whether the MR-S is the hairdresser's car.. or the receptionist. That stigma started from the Miata days and carried to the MR-S. Why the stigma.. find us another slower top down coupe... 

Also the MR setup is not exactly fun to drive (no.. having an MR does not automatically make it a Ferrari) together with it's brother the MR2 usually comes with free membership to the 360 Spin club (another long time automotive joke.....) when you take it to the limit (even in a car park).
