MR2 Mistaken For...

...an NSX, Ferrarri, and DelSol. I almost slapped the person who asked if it was a DelSol.


What other cars has your MR2 been called by people????

i can kinda see where they get the fiero and del sol from, but Mazda and Probe, are they just pulling names out of the air? i prefer when they just ask when they dont know.

Gen1

most people seem to know what the AW11's are more than the SW20's. From a distance from the front the probe and the sw20 DO have similarities so I can understand that, but DelSol? arrrgh that is basically really gay.
