RE: A import you would be caught dead in
I haven't owned either of these cars, but I've heard from others that they're fun drivers:
1995 Toyota MR2 Turbo Coupe
and although it's maybe in the $16-18K range, a 1991 Acura NSX (anything newer is way out of the $12K pricing).
Anyone driven these cars?
If so, what do you think?
