7.3 sec = Del Sol Vtec's 0-60
6.1 sec = Turbo MR2s 0-60
8.X sec = Non-Turbo MR2's 0-60

1995 was the last year the Turbo MR2 was brought to North America.

As for the MR2 VS Del Sol, the turbo MR2 should win every time.
You are comparing mid-engine rear-wheel drive which is optimal for launching compared to front-engine FWD which is the worse case for launching ~ that is simple physics.
The turbo MR2 has more power.
The only benefit the Del Sol has is weight. It's a lighter car.

Not trying to troll your forum, just trying to give honest facts.
