(2000-2005 MR2 Spyder is Gen 3 w drop top, not the Gen 2 hardtop w turbo.)
This is the type of vehicle that I wish Porsche would offer.
Imagine 2000lbs w 200HP boxer four.
Owned two of these. FUN to drive.
Brings back memories of the Lotus Elan I had in college,
lightweight and go-kart handling in a small package.
Drives more like a Lotus Elise than a Boxster.
- one of the lightest sports cars 2200 lbs (vs. 3000+ lbs Boxster)
- mid-engined, tossable, and small size = FUN.
- super cool Air cond., modern trouble-free mechanical/electrical.
- manual top can be raised and lowered from drivers seat.
- Toyota reliability and parts prices
2003-2005 are the best years, avoid the sequential transmissions.
