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.
Exterior and Interior
The MR2’s mid-engined layout lent the two-seater a distinctive silhouette from the side. This 2002 Toyota MR2 Spyder comes in black, with its original wheels and tires, and black convertible top. This car is relatively diminutive, and its small size is most apparent in person. This also makes it very easy to drive and park and turns a lot of heads wherever you go. Not surprising, as it’s just 153 inches long and 66.7 inches wide. The interior is also in black, featuring black leather seats for the two occupants, power windows, power door locks, air conditioning and the original Toyota AM/FM/Tape/CD radio. The driver sits behind a chunky three-spoke steering wheel with a trio of white-faced gauges in front. This steering wheel features buttons for shifting the five-speed semi-automatic transmission, and cruise control is present too.
Engine
The MR2’s ethos of being an economical sports car meant that you won’t find a large-capacity engine under its rear hood. For the third generation, Toyota went with their 1.8L (109ci) 1ZZ-FED gasoline four-cylinder engine. That’s the powerplant that propels this 2002 Toyota MR2 Spyder. It’s a DOHC design with four valves per cylinder, and VVT (Variable Valve Timing) on the intake valves, allowing it to make 138hp at 6,400rpm and 126lb.ft at 4,400rpm. The power is sent to the rear wheels via a five-speed SMT or Sequential Manual Transmission, which can be shifted by the driver through buttons on the steering wheel, or via the gearstick. This car is reported to have had all its fluids flushed and hoses replaced in June 2019.
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. 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 .
Toyota is one of the best-selling car manufacturers in the world, offering millions of American consumers reliable transportation for their daily needs. However, the Japanese automaker is also responsible for providing the enthusiasts with some of the best and most memorable sports cars that have since become revered by all. Names like Celica, Supra, and Trueno are all on the wishlists of many JDM fans. So, too is our featured car: a 1993 Toyota MR2 Turbo Coupe. The MR-2 name stands for “Midship Runabout,” with this sports coupe featuring a mid-engine layout and rear-wheel drive. This example includes the potent 3S-GTE turbocharged engine, and a manual transmission, making this a proper driver’s car, plus an instant modern classic.
The Toyota Crown has long represented understated executive luxury in Japan, serving as one of Toyota’s most respected domestic flagship sedans for decades. By 1999, the Crown had evolved into a refined, comfort-oriented luxury cruiser that blended legendary Toyota reliability with smooth rear-wheel-drive dynamics. This 1999 Toyota Crown Royal Saloon is a particularly appealing example, showing approximately 31,064 miles and offering the kind of low-mileage preservation that collectors and JDM enthusiasts appreciate. Powered by Toyota’s revered 3.0L naturally aspirated 2JZ-GE inline-six, this right-hand-drive Royal Saloon combines dependable engineering with authentic Japanese-market luxury. Finished in elegant Pearl White over a beige cloth interior, this Crown delivers a compelling alternative to European executive sedans, with the added intrigue of true JDM exclusivity.
The second-generation Toyota Celica Supra has become one of the most beloved Japanese grand touring coupes of the 1980s, blending sharp wedge-era styling, rear-wheel-drive balance, and Toyota’s renowned durability into one increasingly collectible package. This 1985 Toyota Celica Supra P-Type represents the enthusiast-favored performance trim, distinguished by its aggressive widebody fender flares, unique alloy wheels, and sportier personality compared to the more comfort-oriented L-Type models. Powered by Toyota’s silky 2.8-liter inline-six and backed by a 4-speed automatic transmission, this example captures the analog charm of Japan’s golden era of sports coupes. Finished in the quintessential black-over-black color combination and showing 127,627 miles, this Supra presents as a compelling survivor from the era before the standalone Supra became a turbocharged icon.
A car that enjoys legendary status with petrolheads anywhere in the world, the fourth generation Toyota Supra is one for the history books, in the G.O.A.T section. That’s Greatest Of All Time, in case you’re not well-versed with pop culture. And today, we’ve got a G.O.A.T for sale, in the shape of this 1997 Toyota Supra from Arlington, Texas. Beneath its smooth black body lines lies the legendary 2JZ-GTE twin-turbo six, and it’s been built to a Stage 3 Stroker level by Induction Performance. It’s matched by a Jack’s Transmissions-built V160 6-speed manual transmission and a host of performance goodies. This car has done a mere 32,000 miles and even has ProEFI Flex Fuel (E85) engine management on board. The current owner discloses that the car faced an off-road incident in 2015 with damage to the wheels and front lip, but has since been repaired since no structural damage was reported.
