Talking

First Generation: MR2 MKI 1985-1989
Second Generation: MR2 MKII 1991-1997
Third Generation: MR2 Spyder 2000-present.

I'll take the MKII, hands down. I'm working on getting one for myself sooner or later. It just seems to be the sportiest of the three.

What do you guys think?

I hate the new MR2.
MKII is my favorite one.

Mister two....

I like the Mark II. I like the styling better than either of the others, and it has plenty of potential to get big hp numbers. The only obvious choice for me.

I like the second gen best. The spyders are a not-so distant second. Anyone know if the new ones have turbo or ever will if they dont?

They don't currently, if I'm correct.

However, I think there's a turboed one in this month's SCC. I don't know about the future.

Heh, did alot of reading since my last post in on this thread. I have learned more about the MKIII MR2, and have to say that I'll pass. It looks alright, but too much like a Boxster ripoff, and the engine isnt nearly as strong as the 3S-GTE in stock form.

On a side note- I may be getting an MKII turbo soon , but I'm still torn between that and an MKIII Supra turbo .

I'll go with the majority and say the Mark II. It looks a hell of a lot better than the new current body style.

Im going to be diffrent and say the MK I, I think it looks better, the styling is more unique (although now dated).
And thier so much fun to drive, they weigh a lot less than the MKII and are a lot more agile. Im also a great fan of the old 4age, its just such a strong versitle engine.

That's beautiful! The reason I posted this in the first place is because of the vigorous debates I've seen between MKI and MKII driver/owners. While I picked the MKII, and would prefer to have a MKII, I have an underlying notion that the MKI would really be more fun to drive. Two reasons:[list=1][*]less weight[*]available s/c[/list=1] Truth is, I'd really like both. :flash: I'd like a MKI especially if I ever get into auto-x, but that may be a long time...

Iv heard the MK1 is a great car for using in Autocross and Hill climbing. Unforunatly the 4agze is limited in power making ablities, unless you want to spend a lot of money, or add a turbo, which gets tricky in the tiny engine bay. This is another problem, there isnt a lot of room to work on the engine, not a good quality in a race car.

Or you could be rediculously lucky and happen to find the 1989 supercharged version for a reasonable price. Now that one has potential!

That's what I was talking about. (The 4agze is the supercharged engine). There great to drive, have a really flat Torque curve, and a nice responsive chassis, But there is no room to work on the motor, its a nightmare. And thier stuck with only about 140hp.
