Not sure on the pages but the MKII was ride of the month, and the,K20, MKIII was somewhere in the back.

EDIT: the MKII is on page 166
The K20 MKIII starts on page 172

Here are a couple . They are in MLA format cuz I just used them in a paper, lol.

Bohr, Peter. "1991-1995 TOYOTA MR2." Road & Track Jan. 2003: 116-118.
-This article from Road & Track focuses largely on the MK2

Delorenzo, Matt, Same Mitani, and Mike Monticello. "TOYOTA MR2 SPORTS CAR." Road & Track Jan. 2005: 39.
- This is a VERY brief article (1/3 page).

How did that MR2 vs. Miata article end up leaning?

When you say an article on an MR2...are you also referring to featured MR2s in magazines? If so, I have about 5-6 I could mention now..

Nice blast from the past - back when 200+ hp dynos and quarter mile times in the high 12s were big news.

I've been meaning to update this archive with the The International MR2 Owners Club (IMOC) list. Maybe I'll get to it before the New Year
