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.

well, at least the MR2 has a 3S engine (that's a man's engine to u receptionists / hairdressers)....

u can have the excuse of blaming the engine too powderful and u lost control, whereas the MRS, u don't even have enough power to join the 360 club......

just buy a MR2, it's got the 3s-gte, no need stupid bolt on

wow, u just copied paste everything u can find on the web, good job!

i'm not going to argue with that

anyway, that youtube video doesn't really say much, just that it's wet, the MR-S is the first one because it's the slowest with the least HP, and those guys behind were fighting so hard between themselves to bother with the MR-S

i'm not actually bashing, if i'm bashing, i'll say the MR-S is crap in my first post here, but i just said it's pitfall is only not practical, and it just doesn't have the power it needs, although it's lightweight, this is a problem with all newer gen toyotas starting with the celica with 2zz, they just don't measure up to the standards with their predecessors. actually, not just toyotas, it's the same as almost all jap cars, just look at the Fairlady 350z, now that's a huge fat arse compared to the 300zx (another huge fat arse but with big muscles to power it).

actually bang for buck there are a lot of other cars that are better choices than this one. the MX-5 / Miata, the RX-8, the Altezza etc. all of them offers better value than the MR-S although there are some little drawbacks such as rarity for the mazda (u can get old gen for less than 70k but newer one for around 110k, MR-S is priced in between), RX-8 is a fuel guzzler (but it's a whole lot more practical than the toyota), the Altezza isn't considered lightweight, but it's got huge potential in the engine bay (u can fit in any kind of engine u can think of, RB26dett or 1jz or SR20 or even 2jz if u got the $) and it's a 4 door sedan, not to mention the fun factor of FR (yes, i'll take it any day over MR platform because u can do silly things with it and it will reward you, not punish you like the MR if you are a noob)

oh, and i forgot, since u r considering a 2nd hand car, THE MR-2 is a 100 times better than the MR-S

did u say "I guess mrs is the most fun car"?

if u think i'm not qualified to poke fun at your comments, firstly, look at what i'm driving. I know this is the internet and i can pretend that i'm driving a ferrari or a lambo, but i'm not, i'm driving a 30 year old hunk of junk that has 2 doors and a 1jz engine in it. i'm more than qualified to poke fun at u.
