I don’t think so. You can buy a lot more cool/fast for that price IMO

Yeah, I think I'll have to say no too. It's a shame, because I love this body style of the Mister 2.

If it were $3500 I’d say for for it. $4k is up there though.

How about the next generation up of MR2?

Something looks off with that bumper and hood.

I think the main reason I wouldn’t get an n/a MR2 is that I’d spend all my time/money trying to make it faster.

Those rear scoops aren’t stock. Why would he need tons more air to a Camry engine?

Not really a fan of the 3rd gen MR2's looks. Shallow, I know.

just kidding. I didn’t know that, actually.

Not really shallow, looks are subjective.

What’s your budget? Around $4k?

Rear scoops are stock, but have had the center divider removed.

Because that’s where the intercooler goes on the turbo version. Also extra cooling because mid-engined. There’s a bulkhead where the radiator exhaust would be on these.

They’re going up in price. If it’s clean, I think it’s worth it.

Hmmm depends on what you’re looking for? And how much maintenance you’re trying to pay for? And how safe you want it to be? Whether or not it’s a DD? This would be my shortlist, I realize many of these may not interest you!

i’m thinking either a bad body kit, he rear ended someone or a combo of the two

They’re modeled after the TOM’s scoops, but like I said, they’re not stock.

Ah .. my tastes definitely run more toward ‘Japanese rice rocket,’ hence my Oppo name.

The body looks good. I'd kill for a good body on mine.

Because he drives it harder than a Camry ;) but seriously, what scoops? Looks stock to me

The rear engine cover/trunk looks a bit misaligned though.

I don’t think it does. I think that’s the photo. You could be right though.

Oh you’re right! That’s one of those dumb mods that people do just because they can...
