the only sard MR2 mc8 road car
A True unicorn! This thing was made as a homologation so Toyota could race in lemans
It had been missing for over 20 years there was only one ever made! And resurfaced last year. Sold for about 25k I think. Looks like its been well used. The race car had a twin turbo v8 but the road one had the n/a v8 If your into rare/ special edition JDM cars you'll find it fascinating even if it does look abit tatty and "kit car" ish Link https://web.archive.org/web/20150215...-seiyaaaz.html |

Went in an auction - would have owed about £12k ish here I think (I had recently bought a V5 Type-R so didnt have the funds for 2 toys :( ). It was a genuine Revision 5 Turbo one aswell..

What's funny about that mc8 is they screwed on a standard mr2 gear knob with 5 speed shift pattern. But the cars got a 6 speed Porsche tranny :lol1:
And I highly doubt that old v8 Lexus lump revs to 10k rpm :lol1: |
looks like someone tried to turn an MR2 into an NSX
