Overview of 1988 Toyota MR2 Supercharged For Sale by Owner

Toyota’s MR2, or Midship Runabout 2-Seater, is a small, mid-engined roadster produced by Toyota from 1985 to 2007, spanning three generations. Its rear-wheel drive configuration and excellent weight balance make the MR2 a fantastic car for keen enthusiasts who are looking to learn the techniques of performance driving, albeit at a lower level of horsepower. The car’s light weight and relatively frugal powertrains also lent themselves well towards decent fuel economy, resulting in a very sensible vehicle that was also fun. You don’t find those two words in the same sentence when talking about most cars. So, if you want something that ticks those boxes while adding a third box called “Definitive Future Classic”, check out this first-generation 1988 Toyota MR2 that’s up for sale in Los Angeles by its second owner. It’s done just 36,600 miles and comes with a 1.6L supercharged engine to enjoy in it's completely original state as it left the factory .

Exterior and Interior

The wedge shape styling with angular sharp creases was all the rage in Japan during the Eighties for the W10 series of the MR2, and this black 1988 Toyota MR2 perfectly embodies what got petrolheads excited during those times. The car’s stylish silver alloy wheels, pop-up headlamps, and compact stance all lend themselves towards a vehicle that’s suitable for driving to work and back during the week, then taking to the track for a weekend blast. This 1988 Toyota MR2 is thankfully, left-hand drive, and its black leather-upholstered interior offers seating for two adults. You’ve got power windows, power mirrors, central locking, and air conditioning for your comfort. There’s also a radio with a cassette tape player, and a switch to determine whether you’re using regular or premium gas, allowing you to adjust ECU parameters accordingly. The gauge cluster features a lovely analog set of gauges with a green LED light that indicates when the supercharger is producing boost. Now isn’t that sweet?

Engine

The 4A-GZE twin-cam 1.6-liter supercharged inline-4 engine in this W10 1988 Toyota MR2 sits right behind the passenger cabin. It’s able to develop a reported 145hp and 137lb-ft of torque, which is pretty swift given the car’s light weight, even in automatic transmission guise. Rear-wheel drive is standard, and interestingly, the supercharger is belt-driven, and disengaged when not needed. Toyota did this to improve fuel economy.
