1998 MR2 2.0 GTi16

Click the below thumbnails for fullsize pictures:

After a very close voting battle, vanilla.coffee has been chosen by our MR2 enthusiasts as ShowcaseMR2 of the Year!

Congratulations Tony, your car is a great indication of how much the community appreciates a clean Revision 5 MR2. We've said it before, but it's worth saying again - It's great to see such a beautiful example of a late model MKII on MR2Board, we're Lucky! Thanks vanilla.coffee!!.

MR2Board has teamed up with baktasht, one of our sponsors, and would like to present you with a $100 gift certificate to spend at EMS Powered!

Happy MR2ing, Tony

As first runner up, it's only appropriate I give you first congrats. Congrats on the award! As already stated numerous times, the black MR2 is always dead sexy. Congrats!

driftmonster · 12-19-2007, 01:11 PM

Yes Congrat's Vanilla. Keep it clean

Kevin: HAA maybe next year!

aQuarius26 · 12-19-2007, 02:17 PM

Congratulations!

Its only fitting that an MKII get the award anyways rather then the outkast MKI or MKIII

You have really done an outstanding job on tricking out your MR2. I really like the looks of the headlights, where did you purchase them? Thank you for your help!
