MR2 (non turbo) VS Celica, Who would win? Options

[Beams]

I was cruising last night with some friends and this MR2 pulls next to me at the traffic lights. He floors the gas but i hear no blow off valve so i say cool ok i might have a chance here. I floor it later on but he doesn't follow. He then stops next to my friends car which btw he knew and told him this Celica guy thinks he can beat me. My friend told me what the MR2 guy said and i'm pissed off so i found his phone number and if i have a chance i'm calling him. I believe i can smoke this guy since it's the 2.0 litre with no Turbo (I saw him floor it...wasn't impressed)

hm, I dont know. The MR2's here in OZ come with the 3SGE engine and that will spank the hell out of a 5SFE. But saying that my girls mr2 feels really slugish off the start and it only gets a real kick in the ass after 5500 rpm's. It takes a while to get up there though.

I know that the MR2's in the states come with the 5SFE so it might be a close one. I think it depends on the weight of the car and probably the driver.
