I actually own a '91 Eagle Talon TSI, not a MR2. I could go a through a string of mods on my Talon but to keep it short, it's a built 2.4L G4CS hybrid with a PTE 4431E 50 trim.

I've been looking into buying a MR2 because (and correct me if I'm wrong);
1.) It's fuel efficient
2.) It's a Toyota and Toyotas are known to be reliable
3.) It's sporty looking

I don't know anything about these cars. I don't plan on modding it. I just plan on driving it as a DD. Right now in my life I need a reliable car that can get me to point A to point B.

How do these cars fair in the snow? I live in Minnesota, so we get snow up here.

I've driven RWD cars before in the winter but they were big and heavy V8 cars (Q45 & Firebird). MR2s are light and small so how do they fair in the snow? Tell me some stories because I don't want to hear "Just buy good snow tires and you'll be fine," lol.
