The yaris will sell faster now for actual money. put some of that money into the mr and the mr is worth way more money now too. hold onto it for a few years (stored properly) and maybe you find a good use for it. kids love cruisin around in droptops and they dont need to be ten to do it. Also it may hold or appreciate in value due to its rarity and lineage.
I don't argue that the MR2 will hold value better than the Yaris... but I'm not looking at this from an investment point of view, but rather on the practicality.

Yes, it's true that we only need one vehicle at this time (the RX330), and had both the MR2 and Yaris sitting unused, but the thinking is that at some point in time, we may actually need to have a second vehicle for everyday use again, and the Yaris is by far the more practical choice for so many reasons.

I was reading that kids under 10 aren't supposed to ride in front seats of vehicles. Is there any actual law specifying when they are legally allowed to do so?
