Toyota having 2 x 2 seat coupes, I really cannot see that being viable.

Unless they drop the Zupra.

I would think a all Toyota Celica would be viable, after the twins get canned that is.

I still believe the twins don't have a long future.

A RWD Manual, running a retro fitted and pumped up 2.0 L M20A-FXS I4 would be good.

LOL

Give me another Steel Mist Gray MR2 with at least 350hp for under $40k and I would snap it up.

Just go find one.. my 94 SMG has "around" 350hp at the crank and it was well under $40k.

Looks like a 64 Barracuda smashed into a wall and shortened the hood up.

I hope the real thing will look better than that. But to be fair, cars don't always look their best in these design patent. The Lamborghini Centenario for example.

Why'd they make the front look like the back.....

I guess they don't know what direction they're going with a potential new MR2, why not create a car render where no one knows if its coming or going.....

gymratter · 04-10-2019, 05:22 PM

just for fun.. it would look a lot better if they just shorten the rear overhang and push back the windshield abit.

To me, it looked more like VW was taking the "new Beetle" and coming up with a new Karmann Ghia. There is nothing MR2ish about that design. (MK1 or MK2)
