I posted this car for sale on behalf of my father since he's not really into the interwebs. We originally purchased the car to drive in the winter because at that time I think we had an AMG C32 and my car is an MR2. Then he decided to get an extra set of wheels and snow tires for the AMG. Too many cars, not enough people to drive them anymore. I'd like to keep it for when I don't live in NYC but it's better off with an owner who can get some use out of it. And I get my spot back in the driveway for my car. My MR2 has been sitting on the street under a tree for several years.
KBB means next to nothing. The car is worth what someone will pay for it. My MR2's KBB value is probably half of what someone might pay.

1. The transmissions in the '92 had failure issues and were replaced under warranty when they failed. While the low mileage on this car is fantastic, it also brings into question how long it will be before the trans does go.

All I can say to this is that the car was never abused when it was driven. Do tranny coolers help with this issue?

2. Pics of the "small rust spots"?

I will get some pictures of the rust.

3. How long has the car actually "stood" between being driven for any length of time? This will impact the condition of the struts (seals take a set and then start leaking when exercised) and the exhaust system (moisture = rust)

I don't really know but I'm guessing a couple of months maybe. The most amount of time it was driven since we've had it was probably when I drove it to Devens, Mass for an SCCA National Tour event in 2008. As much as I wanted to autocross the car at least once, I never did. Rust in the exhaust shouldn't be an issue as the car is started and run pretty frequently.
The rust on the car could certainly be more that one can see with the naked eye. We have nothing to hide about the condition of the car and we aren't looking to rip anyone off. I will get some more pictures so potential buyers can see for themselves. Anyone who is seriously interested in the car is free to make an offer on the price and/or call the number above and talk to my father about the car.
