is that an MR2 turbo or N/A. you can't really compare them to be fair. fastest would be the 300ZX TT

They are each in a different category. As said the 300zx is a TT and the MR2 a twin entry single turbo, and the CRX a FWD car. If you take into consideration running costs, performance, looks, etc id prob say the MR2 R3 would be my choich. But Im biased, I love these cars.

CRX's are more tailhappy than a tailhappy thing on tailhappy mode. I know they are FWD but the lift off oversteer is serious! I drove my mates on the mway and lifted off the power after overtaking to change lanes again and near lost it.

There is a SWB version but they are rare. but Yes they are quick 5.8 0-60 from memory, which means an MR2 3S-GTE is still quicker. Plus any grease monkey can fix them if they ever go wrong as they are a very easy car to work on (so my cousin tells me).

300zx allthough big is superbly poised and engineered, and is actually really really good at handling, better then the MR2 handling wise. Mr2 is rear end happy, crx.. well its a 160bhp N/A engine compared to a V6 TT and a 2.0 Turbo not really comparable! but turbo the crx and you'll have some fun.

Id actually go for a Corsa 1.2 SXI. Has anyone seen these wee cars, they're magic! my mate has one and it has a Combat kit and neons and harness pads and viper stripes and a fuel filler cap and neon washer jets. Its great!

the SWB 300zx arent turbo though if i remember correctly, and as said as rare as hen teeth
there is a 300zx in the street where i work, black with full veilside kit & 18" wheels - its tremedous looking
but its a BIG car!

MR2 seems to have the vote, but want some street racing fun, without going and paying massive dollar on a skyline or supra.

A 300ZX handles better than an MR2 Turbo? I think not. What issue of Max Power did you read that in? It may well handle better than an N/A with no LSD but the Turbo has a different suspension and LSD, it would destroy a ZX through the twisties hands down. And the Rev 3 MR2 is faster in a straight line.
