Default Wanted:2nd gen MR2

anyone selling a NA MR2? 93 or newer preferable. Hardtop or sunroof ONLY. Stock or easily (read: CHEAP) to return to stock.

anyone selling a turbo MR2? 93 or newer ONLY, must be stock or have parts to return to stock.

i didnt see his add on there, but i believe ive already seen it on the MR2 message board. He doesnt have all the stock parts. So ive got a friend at the jacksonville toyota dealership checking prices on oem parts.

Just go on the message board and ask for the stock parts you need, you will find them a hell of a lot cheaper. Shit, I prolly have em laying around lol

mileage is high for the price he wants too. Seems to have some paint issues as well.

Have you ever seen a 93 Hardtop 5 speed in your life besides his? Keep looking you won't. That is what justifies the price, the car weighs almost 350lbs less then mine, and mine was an n/a.

yup, ive seen quite a few. This year at SCCA Nationals, they were quite common in E-stock.

And its not "that" light. The hardtop cars are still over 2500 lbs. Ive seen them on the scales.

turbo cars weigh around 2800-2900lbs and rarely ever are in a hardtop in any year.

i didnt say anything about the turbo cars.

Everything ive said so far concerns the na.

Like ive said, ive seen plenty of na hardtops.

Here are 3 of the cars that were at nationals.

there was also a turbo hardtop there, but i know THESE are ultra rare and have prices should match that.

Your friend wants 6500 and id have to buy a bunch of stuff to get it back to stock. On the other hand, you can see here:
http://www.board.mr2faq.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=100334
that i could buy a fully prepped (the way id do it) na MR2 hardtop for a grand more, but im getting the konis, and the extra wheels, and the adjustable front sway, and the car's been built by someone with a reputation (Grassroots Motorsports project car)

Only issue is that the yellow car is too far away.
