Hey Oppo, it’s been a while since I’ve posted anything! Just wanted to share some pics I took of the MR2. Pics I took... for the eBay listing :’((((((
It's time for a dad-mobile. My wife and I had twin boys this past November, which is why I haven't been around much. I'm selling this for cash for a down payment and trading in the TL-S for something with three rows. I'm thinking Flex or CX-9, what do you guys think?

Why do you need three rows for two kids?

At this point, all car sales in the nation should go through oppo, at least for editorial purposes. You do need some engine bay and interior pics though. Sorry you have to sell.

It’s a gorgeous MR-2.
Have you considered a van?

Thanks! I haven’t really, not if I don’t have to. I'm thinking the Flex or the Mazda will be at least a little fun

I figured so. Nice clean pics, good luck with the sale. I can never find a clean mr2 in my area.

Thanks, that's why I went with eBay, I'm hoping a lot of people can't find a clean mr2 in their area

That sounds like a raw deal. You get stuck driving the kiddie mobile?

Yeah it kind of sucks, but my wife works evenings so we both need kiddie mobiles. I figure I'd get one I'd enjoy

A pretty good choice probably. Always someone, somewhere looking for a nice example. Are you within driving distance of Austin?

So stick her with the 7 passenger suck-mobile and get yourself something that doesn’t have to pull doggie duty.

I can’t believe this is a NE car! Garaged most of it’s life? Any major under carriage rust?

Flex is sexy. CX-9 is reliable. MR2 is tiny and dangerous.
Keep MR2.

Yep! Underneath is clean, no rust at all! There’s only a spot on one of the wheel arches and under the front bumper.
Here's a pic I took last year when I did the brake pads

Three rows? Nah. Mid-engined cars are best cars. Go for a Mondial.

Thanks! Actually an even nicer one just sold in California on eBay for $7500, which is what motivated me to try to sell mine

They’re only going to get more expensive! I know your hands are tied, but selling for under $10k is still near the bottom of the depreciation curve.
I hope.

Haha I can see SW20's going up too! Part of the problem is I don't have a garage to keep it in, otherwise I might keep it a bit longer. I stored it last winter but that's just going to eat away my profit if I do it again this year. It's not just because I had a couple kids, I think the time is right to sell it

Yeah that’s the hard part isn’t it. It might be worth 10x as much in its current condition 20 years from now. But storing and maintaining it in this condition for that long costs money itself, let alone the effort involved in it all.
Fair enough :)

Don’t do it dude, it’s probably the last clean MR2 alive! It’s museum worthy! Speaking of that... Maybe Louwman wants it?

Are you trying to make me cry? Lol
I was going to keep it, but then I had to sink another $125 into my stupid Acura over the weekend. I test drove some cars this weekend and I think I need to sell the mr2 to get the one I want. Call up Louwmans and see if they want it?!

No, not trying to make you cry, just trying to get some sense into you ;-)
Louwman has, next to his private collection on display in Wassenaar, a collection of Toyotas (Louwman is the Toyota importer for The Netherlands) as well. I’d be surprised if they didn’t have this one but I’ll ask for you. Yours is in excellent condition, right?
