Hi there! I love and know the MR2 very well. I would suggest she get either the orig body MR2 or the 2nd body style, 91-95. The cars are now considered collectible and there is not a bad one in the bunch. Just get it from someone anal like me that loves and maintains it and drive it like bat from haides! I am very new to Porschedom....owned a 2004 now for 10k miles, or 15 months. The Boxter S is much faster than the MR2 turbo, which has 200 hp and a fabulous gear box, by the way....so far the Boxter gear box and ride et all is very nice...but I keep hearing about expensive maint and that kind of scares me. I drove the MR2 for 22 years and have a comfort level with that car, inside and out knowledge.
