To be honest, I was looking to get close $10k for my mr2. I know that might be quite a bit high for the car but here in Canada, that's actually a good deal for clean 20+ year-old car, no rust, and mechanically perfect. Especially since I live in the rust/snow belt, having no rust on the car adds quite a bit of value. Original paint and in good condition too.

The dealer told me $7200. I laughed and said I that I'm much better off keeping it. The wheels alone are worth $3000.

Anyways, I'm extremely excited to add an FRS to my stable. Hopefully very soon. Within the next month.
