Yeah, they're ok. Handle alright, bit snappy on the limit but should be fun!
Great driving position too. Get some R888's on it and have a riot.

Non turbo ones are a bit slow really, see if you can get rid of some of the weight.

Thats nothing for an MR2 n/a. Seen them much higher than that.
They're alright the non turbos, 173bhp from the factory.
