Hey guys whatsup!!!
This is the first question i've ever asked here but I quite frequently come here for insight on things I need answered :).

So anyways ill get to the point.
At the local Workout Facility I am a member of there is a Toyota Mr2. Im not sure if its a twin turbo, but its a left hand drive vehicle. Its one of the nicest i've seen and I am very interested in it. It has a body kit, is crimson red, custom rims and custom seats, the interior also looks like its painted black for esthetics(the dash and middle console i mean). My knowledge of cars is quite good but not what you would call outstanding. I got the individuals number who is selling the Mr2 from the For Sale sign he had posted in his window. I am planning on giving him a call tomorrow.

What kind of questions are good for me to ask when im looking at buying a vehicle? Any specifics I should be aware of or any things that would be good to ask about an Mr2. THis is my first car buying experience.
Let me also add that I have about 10 grand to work with in buying a vehicle. I live in Edmonton Alberta Canada for those of you who are familiar of that. What would be a decent price to pay for a car like this? I know it will probably depend whether its turbo or non turbo also but I am planning to give him a call asap after i recieve some answers.
Thanks so much for your help in advance.
***I will be posting a video I took of the car in the parking lot from all angles whenever I get the chance also.***
Let me also add that it is about a 90 - 92.
How much do you think a good price for the car would be? Im scared he might ask for over 10 thou when I call him .

Why waste your money on such a cheap car? It's a Toyota for crying out loud. They don't make Toyota Mr2's for a reason. Want to know why? They didn't sell well, horrible design a real ugly car. You need to find a car that has balls and this car is definitely not it. No matter what condition it is in. A Toyota MR2 is never worth it. Maybe you should research cars a little bit better before looking at such garbage too buy. I'd rather be driving a golf cart then anything made by Toyota!
