    Fun Fact: the MR2 was never sold as the MR2 in France: MR2 or 'Emm Aire Deux", phonetically, sounds like Merde, the french word for Sh*t.
    Moog's MRPoo is, therefore, weirdly accurate.

It outmaneuveres Miatas all day long and because of the rev happy N/A 160 HP 1.8L, big 4-pot AP Racing brakes and low weight it'll give a GTI a run for its money on a twisty backroad.
