Ooooohhhhh.... but the auto would be a deal breaker for me.

Sure, I'd rather have a manual, but I'd buy it if it was close...

and I was 5" shorter.

Sure, id rather manual but that would still be an exceptional commuter, especially if stop and go traffic were an issue.
Coffee mug in one hand, wheel in the other...since there is no cup holder.

How tall are you?

I've always like these but never been in one. I would be homeless if the wife saw me roll up in this.

It would be a difficult car to sleep in.

Finally something close to me. Was wondering if anyone posting in here other than me was in the corn states.

I wouldn't mind having it, even if it is an automatic. I'm guessing Iowa is a salt state, so I would buy without a good look see.

I'm in Lincoln, used to be in Sioux City. There are a few of us in the area on here.

My dad is 6'1" and he fits into my '87 with T-Tops just fine. You would have to be very very tall to not fit into a 1st gen MR2.

I'm right at 6' and fit fine in mine. Though have to lean the seat back if I keep the t-tops on while wearing a helmet.

The auto is a shame. With the peaky nature of the 4age, I'd imagine an auto would suck all the life out of it.

How tough are they to convert to manual?

SCCA Club racing friend (and hoarder of MR2 parts thankfully) is well over 6' tall and succesfully races one.
