I like AW11 MR2s but I wouldn't use one for a track car that sees DD usage as well. IMO a SW20 NA would be a better dual use MR2. Very few high end dampers exist for the MR2 (which doesn't mean you can't go the custom route but that's more costly) and other parts aren't all that plentiful. The AW11 NA cars are fun and very light though.

However, by far the correct answer to this thread is a Miata.
