Not a MR2. Never will be a MR2.
Mid engine Rear wheel drive. This car lacks the RWD aspect. -------------------- 1991 MR2 - T-tops - Crimson Red - Gen3 3SGTE - Lots of money

Runabout standing for roadster not RWD, so they can get away with the MR on a technicality. Also it wont be a toyota because scion is now toyotas (and i put this loosely a posible) "performance" line, just like the prius is getting its own line. It's already been stated in press releases. The toyota that we grew up with is dead, no longer will we see the inline 6 monsters or the s**t n' get 4wd rally cars  , and thats why I work for honda now because they at least know how to make a car that is worth driving.On a last note the celica was never stopped they just renamed it the tc (refer back to my statement about scion).

False. Only with the 3rd gen MR-S did it officially turn to mid-ship runabout... And we all know the 3rd gen doesn't count for sh!t. -------------------- 1991 MR2 - T-tops - Crimson Red - Gen3 3SGTE - Lots of money
