didnt do much research due to time honestly>
my brother and i wanted a car for daily use, pretty much for him to go to work so we saw an mr2 for sale for 3500 91 mr2, 5sfe manual. with 120K miles. question is simple. how much different is it from the celi? like i know same engine, mid engine rwd. but other than that, is it harder to work on for simple little things that are common with 5s and are mods like exhaust, header intake harder to install? good buy or should we settle for something different in the same price range. we just need a beater -------------------- For Sale:OEM tail lights - make offer

Either 5S or 3S-GTE. I say MR2. It's more difficult to work on but more rewarding to drive.
