Message right now though.

Why didn't I go for the MR2 Turbo? A few Reasons:
1) The 300ZX is faster
2) The 300ZX is much better looking in my opinion, bigger, stronger and bolder. There is alot more muscle to it.
3) The 300ZX is a much classier, comfortoble car than the MR2. The MR2 can leave you feeling confined and uncomfortoble sometimes...
4) The Z is a much more respected car than the MR2 is. Heritage and all. I think the Z will keep it's value better than the MR2 will.
5) I have just always loved the Z, it is my dream car...

About reliability though,
The MR2 will definately be cheaper...
4cyl single turbo as opposed to a 6 cyl Twin Turbo
The 300zx is alot more advanced too, (which means more things can break)
from what I have seen the 300zx parts are more expensive, BUT MR2's are a real pain in the ass to work on... really.

Reliability I would probably say MR2 would be cheaper to maintain, but the 300ZX is a FAR superior car. It is not just a sports car, it is a muscle car, a luxury coup, a touring car and a way of life...
