I'm going to flame you because the MR2 spyder is NOT a real MR2, it's a wanna be MR2.:wink: You went from the mother of all MR2's to a....... But from a practical stand point I understand why.
I can't say my heart didn't sink when I read this but i've been your shoes before when practicality needs to take precedence. Having said that, my buddy would have probably made a good offer on your MR2!
I have no idea on the condition of your CRX. Chances are it's pristene. If not, PM me some info on it. We're looking for a lemons car to race with.
Adrian, your post got my brain cells tingling and I was looking at these while fantasizing owning a MKII MR2:

The last one is a bit of a stretch in terms of what I'd want to spend for an MR2, but it looks amazing. Anyway, not being an MR2 guy I'm afraid to pull the trigger on anything. My time is so consumed with the NSX I don't have time to learn about the MR2, but I would love to find a decent one for daily driving. Maybe someday...
You're not far. If you ever need help working on mr2, please let me know.
