Just looking at Parkers Price Guides, and found that they list all the derivitives of the MR2 as Insurance Group 13, but the new Roadster Red edition is listed as group 14. So not only do you have to suffer a pretty naff looking red softtop, but you pay more insurance too?

Anyone from the insurance business care to check? In my experience Parkers data is usually pretty wide of the mark!

Another good reson not to buy a red. The dealer seemed pretty keen to sell me a red, (I wanted sable anyway) but I thought the red leather on the toyotas looked pretty anemic. I nearly bought a RX8, and in comparison the red/black leather in those is the nuts.
