Hello everyone.......
Well if u can't tell by name, i own an eagle talon and am sick and tired of fixing the damn thing (215000km could be part of the problem). So there's a 1988 supercharged MR2, t-tops, 5-spd, cloth int., 102000km (63000 miles for you americans)
I need to take it to get inspected but physically the thing im worried about is it's different paint than original. You can see red paint inside where the engine is and the "new" paint is peeling off on both bumpers.
Asking $5500 obo canadian (approx. $4100 u.s.)
So, i was curious what people think, and for anyone that's had/has one, how are they to work on??? are parts hard to find and expensive?? Have you experienced it breaking down a lot and always fixing it???
I appreciate everyone's opinions!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks!!!!!!!

They are great cars and parts are not a problem. If the $4100 USD is a good price if the car is in good condition. Should cost more in Canada than US because fewer were imported to Canada.

Snap the car up quickly. If people on the above board found out where it is, they (and myself) would snag the car before you could.

So what is the deal you ever snatch that car up. How is it. Tell us a lil about it. If you didn't get it you should tell me where it is cause I will go buy it right now. MR-2's are soo sweet, I especially love the supercharged ones. They all sound soooo nice, my buddy Evan had one and it was amazing, it got us all the ladies. catch you lata dirty!!
