You have an option of driving a mk4 Supra Twin Turbo
or MK2 MR2 turbo ( both stock) , no other choices, which would you choose (honestly).

I'm 120% go for Supra... but one of my friend will 100% go for MR2 Turbo (he thinks Supras are over rated).

If both stock, 100% Supra. If modded, about 50% MR2 and 50% Supra. It would be a very hard decision.

Driving under what conditions? Weekend car/race car? MR2. Every day as well as weekends? Supra.

I have driven both at stock, and I can honestly say the supra after simple mod of coil-overs(decent brand) handled vary close to how the MR2 (MKII) did, granted with high hp on the supra it won't hold as well as the MR cause of engine location and weight distribution, and yes I know that your probably thinking all that dosnt matter cause the supra isn't stock, but I'm just saying for instance and that's not a very expensive upgrade

Supra motor has 50% more Epic though...

Mark IV's are pure sex. Nothing wrong with an MR2, but the Supra is where it's at.

with 50% more cylinders, that's to be expected.

I would be okay with 200 hp@6000 rpms/185-200 tq@4000 rpms in a 2600 lb RWD sport coupe.

all i have to say, is after driving this car in GT5, both stock and worked, the engine is a EXCELENT choice. the car handles unbelivably well and engine has room for improvement with simple boltons. in GT5, with worked internals, and some weight removed, i have a 405bhp engine in a 890kg car with a 10Krpm redline and INCREDIBLE handling
not much more can be asked from this
