Not seen one in real life before, but I'm not certain if this is or not an MR2 conversion :)

You don't normally see this sort of metal part in your local town car part though, so he/she is one brave sod...

Definitely .... Dash and handbrake position is mr2ish and no one would put those wheels on a real one.

Plus it just doesn't look right.

I did think the wheels were a bit gash tbf, lol well i don't know my mr2's that well, and it's been years since Ive seen one of these reps, and the last one i saw it was really small and obvious etc.. this didn't look obvious to me, but yes i failed..lol

There used to be three calibras back in the 90's round here with similar style kits, one being a turbo with 10" wide rear wheels, my mate bought it a few years back after it was pulled out of the garage it had been sat in for a few years and let me have a go in it, i got out and walked back to him as it was a fooking deathtrap:eek:
