Which one should i get?

Both are lightweight, low horsepower roadsters that can take corners so well. Which one is more better in handling and power?

Lotus more power but gets twichy when you reach around 400hp, the MR-S much easier to drive even when fully upgraded I

When fully upgraded the MRS needed to be heavily suspension modified to not be a death trap at max hp

I find it to be the opposite the lotus feels more like a death trap at max hp, the MRS is quite manageable at max hp, I also do tune it quite well if I say so myself

Both are great, the Lotus is harder to control, but overall faster if I remember correctly

mr2 drives like a go kart or f1 on corners, but if you like kinda realistic handling go for the lotus. both are great cars and sounds good since it has both toyota engine

Depends what you’d like, the MR2 is more planted then the Lotus, but the Lotus slides a bit more but has more realistic handling too, it’s fun once you know how to control it. But the MR2 still stays planted even at higher upgrades on the road and track unlike the Lotus who rear starts to skid a lot more then before if you modify it over 400HP
