Even little things like the Toyota Mister Two and the Honda S2000. At one point, Toyota made a Celica that looked like a 7/8ths scale 70's Mustang.

I want a small, lightweight thing with a little more than necessary horsepower and a 5 speed manual, something that's actually fun to drive in normal road conditions.

Easily my favorite Celica model. One dude swapped a 1UZ into his. It was beautiful πŸ₯²

Don’t worry, the Celica is supposed to be returning soon as a new entry in the GR line.

You've never heard someone call an MR2 that? How else do you pronounce MR2?

Kinda like "Ehm Arr Two"? Though English is not my native language, so it might be that.

I thought that everyone pronounced it your way...

(That's how it's officially pronounced but "mister two" is more fun)
