As much as I love them, the Europeans are too expensive to maintain (coming from an ex-Volvo owner).

Under $10k is bottom of the range MR2 material, and if you want a turbo you'll be spending more.

For $8-10k you could get a nice ST165 GT4 (1986-89) or a Supra MA70, both of which have the MR2 beat in practicality. If you want a platform to work from, the Supra would be cheaper to work on. The Celica would be cheaper to run and more unique, and if you're willing to spend the money the ST165 could be formidable with ST205 running gear.
