The CRX was cute too.

So are those Scion XB's, waaaaay cute.

(don't you hate hearing your car referred to as cute?)

They are very RICER looking. Nothing about a small car looks appealing to me, unless you want great gas mileage.

I found one on manly drag wheels. It even runs 10.9s. Still very cute!



Apparently, this guy likes your MR2 Ferrari idea so much he built a cute Ferrari clone:



Hmmmmm...... better than an f-body?

Not fair. A S.O.M. Firehawk looks better than 99% of all cars made.

yes, but those gray MR2's also were the least cute color and are very popular. Both cars above are stock.

I know it might do 10.9's, but damm that is an ugly car to have...
Its like when you pull up telling your buddies that you have this new ride that runs that good, then everyone goes outside and sees the MR2,

Its a let down... LOL... even if running that fast.... Its not a PUS*Y getter....

Its all about the stance IMO> You add a nice set of wheels and some coilovers to any car and it can make it go from cute to aggressive.

Actually, that MR2/Ferrari looks like it was used in the movie Cars. The Michael Schumacher scene specifically.

You made the statement. What does fair have to do with it? Both cars are stock. You are more than welcome to find a better photo of a stock MR2 to compare it with. Bet the Firehawk still looks better

Alright fair enough. But I'll say my car looks better than most, if I can say that. Can I say that?

The car I've always wanted tho is a 99 30th Anniversary T/A = seks on wheels.
