Seriously guys, I cannot decide. I only plan on throwing down around $3.5k on one of these and because the SC300 falls within my price range here in California, has given me another option to look at. I wanted another (eventually) project car that must remain as a daily driver until my conversion is complete next year before I can really touch it. So I just wanted to see what your thoughts are. I honestly am getting anxious to just grab another car, although no real MR2's are coming my way.

N/A's are going as low as $1300 up to $2600, MR2 Turbos have too much stuff on them that folks are selling and going for $6k and higher. I know there has to be some available in between, so this poll is basically asking if I should wait. Or if I should just go ahead and grab a SC300.

Nah, I'm just as torn as you are, Faust. Most of the SC300's I see around here show their age, and I almost never see an MR2, so there's that special uniqueness about an MR2 to me. I have to vote for the SC300 due to the practicality it offers as a DD as opposed the the virtually trunkless and no rear seats in the MR2. It just seems like after you have the Celica built, you'll have your go-fast toy, why not have a go-fast practical car with a trunk too?
