The 2002 Toyota MR2 Spyder is a lightweight, mid-engine roadster built around a simple formula that enthusiasts still appreciate today: low weight, rear-wheel drive, a manual gearbox, and open-top driving. Showing approximately 48,326 miles, this example is finished in the especially eye-catching Electric Green Mica and pairs its 1.8L naturally aspirated inline-four with a 5-speed manual transmission. It also benefits from a number of enthusiast-oriented upgrades, including 15-inch Koenig Helium wheels, stainless steel headers, a MagnaFlow Y-pipe and catalytic converter, and an HKS performance exhaust, giving this MR2 a more distinctive look and sound while retaining the basic character that made the third-generation MR2 such an engaging sports car.
Since Toyota Motor Corporations' founding in 1937, the Japanese giant automobile manufacturer has graced the world with some of the most desirable and fun cars to drive, without compromising on economy or price. One of these truly fun rides is the Toyota MR2 which stands for either “mid-ship run-about 2-seater” or “mid-engine rear-wheel-drive 2-seater”, which was produced from 1984 to 2007 over three generations. The first generation was produced from 1984 to 1989 and was a commercial success. Up for grabs is a pristine 1988 Toyota MR2 Supercharged with a T Top roof and comes with just 8,557 miles on the odometer.
Toyota’s MR2 has the distinction of being Japan’s first mid-engined rear-wheel-drive car when it was introduced in 1984. Despite the layout being the preserve of top-tier sports cars and supercars, the MR2 was aimed at being a small, economical, and sporty car that would have driver-delighting handling characteristics. It focused on thrifty thrills, and was more adept at carving up corners deftly, than burning rubber or dominating the dragstrip. Produced over three generations, this 2002 Toyota MR2 Spyder belongs to the third generation. It’s from California and reported to have a smidge over 500 original miles, making it possibly the lowest-mileage MR2 in the US. The original build sheet and paperwork are available with the sale, as are the two original keys.
The Toyota MR2 was produced from 1984 to 2007 and spanned three generations. This mid-sized two-door mid-engine Japanese marvel established Toyotas's reputation for affordability and performance. The MR2 stands for Midship Runabout 2-seater. The first generation lay the groundwork with its boxy styling and eager motor and handling. But the second-generation MR2, as featured here, offered a sleek and desirable exterior at odds with the pedestrian styling exhibited by other 90s cars. The second-generation MR2 was also known as the Toyota MR2 W20. At the time of its release, it went head to head with some of the most exotic vehicles in the world. Though its size is small, it assuredly compensated with its dynamic chassis. Our subject vehicle is a 1994 Toyota MR2 W20 T-Bar Roof Show car with just over 100000 miles on the clock.
The second-generation MR2 was given a complete makeover before it debuted in 1989. The car quickly gained popularity among JDM enthusiasts due to its unique-for-the-price-point features, such as the mid-engine design and planted handling. The handling and road-holding of the MR2 were areas in which Toyota invested a lot of time to improve for the MK2, seeking advice from professional racers. This W-sport roof edition stayed with its original owner up until 2016, with all of the original purchase paperwork and build sheets along with the original owner's manual. The subject car is up for sale in Florida. With just 57k miles to its name, it is a well-preserved example of one of Japan's finest sports cars.
The story of this legendary Japanese sportscar began in 1979 when lead designer Akio Yoshida set out to create an affordable mid-engine sports car that would be fun to drive and pose an imminent threat to its exotic European rivals. Yoshida was successful, and by 1984, Toyota rolled out Japan's first-ever mid-engine production car. The second-generation MR2 AW20 Turbo featured here is a one of a kind time capsule of JDM history that has just 81,500 miles and is currently located in Florida. Our subject car just completed its first belt service, comes with its original build sheet, six extra tires, and two keys!
Now here’s a car that’s the polar opposite of what Americans consider to be sporty. It’s a diminutive thing from the Nineties, with its little four-cylinder engine mounted behind the passenger cabin. Yet, the Toyota MR2 made waves in every country that it was sold. This Midship Runabout 2-seater (hence the name MR2) was produced across three generations from 1984 to 2007. Today’s 1993 Toyota MR2 Turbo is a fine third-generation example that includes the original window sticker and owner’s manual with the sale of the car. Yes it’s got over 145,000 miles on it, but let’s not forget that it's a Toyota! 145,000 miles is mere chicken feed for this era of cars from the famed Japanese automaker.
Toyota’s MR2, or Midship Runabout 2-Seater, is a small, mid-engined roadster produced by Toyota from 1985 to 2007, spanning three generations.
