[All] [Generic] Best Mr2 based lookalike

Pagani Zonda based on an mr2, i think its way better than the 355 lookies.
not that i would, but does look half decent, being a mr2 under all that.

the overall size isnt much bigger at the back than the normal mr2 an di bet its all fibreglass anyway.

i agree, its a much better kit than the 355 but having see it from the rear it's missing the little spoilers to help hide the bulk

I like the 355 kits, just love the side skirts on them really, i hate the back of them though, same here really the back just looks a little odd but the rest is very nice.

why does every kit car package on the mr2 has an awful rear end.......

ferrari front nice, rear crap
mustang front, i like, rear, really basic
this thing, good front, pretty dam awful at the rear
that ebay full kit, nice front, cheap rear..

i think its the lights and the quality of fitment at the rear, it never works for some reason.

Completely agree Jim. The rears always seem to be forgotten when time I concerned and they just don't make them as nice as the rest of the kit.

Almost like they get bored half way through...

What I Cant understand is if your going to re-body the MR2 why has no one started making replicas of things like the SARD JGTC etc...

That is a travesty.

It makes me want to put out my eyes with a spoon.

See I actually like the ar$e on that! I think that's the sort of rear centre panel that would look good on a MKII 8)
