MR2 good for a girl?

I do not have a car yet and was thinking about getting an MR2. Is this a good car to have for a girl or do they a lot of problems and stuff? Thanks...

Assuming cars with problems are meant for men? My dad thinks my red mr2 is more of a "female" type ride... Just about anyone looks cute in one, except for maybe Mr. T.

It's a very fun car, but you must take care of it. If you want a car you won't have to think about too much, get yourself something more practical, like an accord or something.

Personally, I say get an mr2. Would look DAMN sexy!

Any car can be good for a "girl" ... men have nothing over women.

The MR2 is great car for anyone intersted in being a driver ... and enjoying an all around performance vehicle.

I didn't mean it the way I said it. I kinda linked to sentences and thoughts together.... LOL. The "girl" and the "problems" questions weren't supposed to reflect each other. Sorry 'bout that...

At any rate, I have known many women that have had MR2s ... including my mother and 3 of my exgirlfriends *sigh*

... actually I bought Jekyl from a female owner that autocrossed the car.
My first MR2 I bought from my mother.

im assuming you re talking about the 91-95 second gen mr2.

go test drive one long enough to see if you like it or not. im assuming you already know this, but the mr2 doesnt have a lot of room, only a 2 seater, and doesnt have much luggage space. i wouldnt say the cars that comfortable, but its ok. to be honest with you, i dont really see mr2s as a car, for a girl, but if you give it a pink paint job it will be, jk. for some reason i dont really see the mr2 as a good car for a girl. if you dont want problems, i would recommend a lower mile mr2, like below 100k. i would expect there to be some small problems on second gen(91-95) mr2s anyways though, since they re usually older with higher miles. who knows, you might not have problems for awhile, or sometimes it ll be a nightmare. problems i had with my car would be the alternator replacement, bushings and power windows going out, my bro used to have a turbo and his power window went out also, both 91 turbo with over 100k. my bro also had his transmission replaced, and had his turbo manifold went out, after that, he sold it. it had aprox. 155k on it. im not saying this for all mr2s, just an example some things that my go wrong on a 2, if you buy the wrong one. my cars been good, other than the stuff i mentioned, which are usual stuff that needs replacement with higher mileage cars.

i dont know about the engine problems because my mr2 has only 34,000 miles but i can tell you that if u get a nice one it's a hastle worrying about it all the time, because it looks so nice looking...u find yourself often thinking that someone will mess with it and then u have to search for a good parking space, and other things like that...but overall its a great car in my opinion

An MR2 is an excellent vehicle if you like going sideways. An MR@ turbo is an excellent vehicle for going sideways quickly. Call, and i will sell you mine for $15000!pvr
