Yeah, I liked the MR2, looked good from the side, but to be honest the MR2 was never "wide" enough to be a supercar. From the front and rear it looked a little "slim" for me.
I guess the MR2 never had the history with myself that the RS does, I seriously wanted one back in '88 when I was an 18 year old. A friend (at the time) bought one for 7995, I was gutted - watching him pose about in it whilst I had my 3i. I ended up doing a replica in '89 but it wasn't the same.
I remember him coming through my town centre in his RS - only a handfull of cars have made me "emotional" - Ferrari's do it, and when I saw his RS I just had to have it.
Took me bloody years to get it mind!!
