Great web site! I bought a red gt-t-bar 1993 a year(ish) ago in Jersey U.K. Leather interior and full sound system. What a superb ride! Wouldn't swap it for the world. One careful previous owner as she's in mint condition. I'll be having a proper look at the website when I have more time, but right now I'm going out for a spin!

First, I'm totally impressed with the truly professional job the originator of this website has done! I love my 1985 MR2. (52,000 original miles). All I can say, is that the MR2 is a quiet secret! I've had my own business as an automotive purchasing consultant in years past. I've had nice cars, but you have to drive one to see how much a joy it is! The quality and workmanship is rarely seen today, except for a few model cars. My background is in Electrical Engineering and I'm a financial analyst. The MR2 is superbly engineered and the cost factor, in regard to quality and longevity ranks with the best! Doylestown, PA.

I just got a 1986 MR2 and I love it. It has perfect handling and its also lowered with 15" wheels. Next year I'm think of buying 27" wheels but I would also like to make some improvments on the engine toget more power. After all the more power the better.

I had just recentlly inquired an 1986 liquid silver metalic MR2, and eversince i had bought it, I could/can not stay out of it. It is really easy/fun to drive and it's a ball fixing & modifying it. Over all, I would not trade it for nothing, execpt maybe one of those new 00' Spyders. Some time this week I am going to get the a/m supercharge kit.....Hope to hear from some other young mr2 owners like myself...(956)440-9549 my home phone, or just be lazy like me and click on my "Blue high-lighted name". Thank you...

V. Hoornstra (gw.pcatv.org)
Nice site we have here! I recently purchased a blue '85 MR2, man, what an excellent car! I just mail-ordered a K&N filter kit for it, but after doing some research, it seems that the K&N is nice for racing due to its superior airflow, but not a good choice for long-term street use due to the way it allows dust & dirt to slip by, despite what the ads say. So, I'm going to pay the restocking fee and ship it back on my own dime... better to lose a few bucks than dirty up my engine, the extra HP gain just isn't worth it. Foam filters seem to have the same problem with passing dirt as the K&N, from what I've read. So, for an alternative, does anyone have any info on how to mount a stock-style paper airfilter so that it is open like the K&N design? I'd like to ditch the restrictive stock intake tubing and airbox, but still use a paper filter for its superior filtering properties. My goal is to enhance breathing efficiency for a bit of extra power and maybe even better gas mil!
eage, but not at the cost of crudding up my engine. Thanks for the bandwidth!

Hello. I seem to not be able to find stuff on here that I have found before. I saw on here at some time where someone had stuck a Lexus V8 in an MR2! I was wondering if anyone could email me @ zeldazonk81128@aol.com and let me know anything about that. I was wondering what generation MR2 they did that to. I have an 87 with 124,000 and I want to put all new mechanics in it so I can trust it to take anywhere!

The 2nd Generation MR2 is perfect I think. As long as I am lucky on finding one with low miles...there will be no doubt about me getting one

Hey Mr2 Fanatics!!!!!! I just bought my second MR2. I have had an 88 NA and now have bought a 91 NA.

I saw one today for the first time, and I personally think it is one of the sharpest car to roll down ooour college, it is fantastic and without a douth
the most silent vehicle I have ever tried to hear,unbelievable, for real.
I only can wish for one, I feel like it needs a special place in automoive history,toyota congradulations.

I bought a 85 mr2 with 106,000 miles and have driven it for one week (9,22,00). In that one week I am so impressed with it that I could kick myself for not getting one sooner. It runs so smooth and handles so well that It IS the best car I've ever owned. (and I'm 44 years young)lol.The engine runs so quiet and the trans. goes into gear with no effort. It has a 1600 4 cyl. engine that is more than enough power, and has plenty of get up and go.If you are thinking about geting one I would highly recomend doing so! Ps. I only payed $2,100 and the car is very clean on the outside and in. If you would like to talk to me about my "Mid-life moble" feel free to drop me an "E" and I will get back to you "Bruce"

The Little Red Menace (lsanca1-193-236.dsl.gtei.net)
I just got my '89 normally aspirated MR2, and i must say its incredible the performance that the vehicle attains with only 106 hp at its disposal. Combine that with its very impressive handling and quick turn-in and my seemingly mild-mannered relic better equipped for the junkyard shows its true colors....flashing yellow as i let my turn signal blink once to let you know i've just passed you at 140mph bone stock...and i haven't even tached out the motor yet >=) now if i could only find aftermarket performance items for it, perhaps i could be weaving through traffic as though it were standing still at 160.....any suggestions?

This car rocks!! I have a 1985 MR2 and I love it!! There are a few things wrong with it, but it still performs like new and I push it every day. I want to completely restore it and buy a 2000 model next year to drive for every day. I bought it with 38,000 miles on it 2 1/2 years ago and it has 76,500 miles on it now. I paid $4,270 for it and it was worth every penny. Now this style of car is hot on the market and for a good reason; a light, nimble car performs wonderfully. Anyone who loves stick shift should have this car, or at least drive it once in their lives. Whoo hooo!~!~!~!~!~l

Bob Crawford (spider-tl083.proxy.aol.com)
I purhcased my MR2 new late in 1990,and have enjoyed it since. Mine is the 2.2 which I'm always looking for performance enhancements for. I've install a K&N filter, Jacobs ignition and other odds and ends for improvement. I have been searching for an aftermarker supercharger but have so far been unsuccessful. I have been reading on the installation of the turbo 2.0, but was hoping to generate the low end torque or a supercharger for city driving, rather than the high end torque of the turbo. Has anybody thouht of installing the V-6 from the Camry sinch the Camry also had the 2.2? TRD makes a supercharger this it.
Over the years and 150,000 fun miles I've lowered it, installed 17" rims, added a MOPAR six pack hood scoop to the engine cover and had it repainted in clearcoat due to the original paint wanting to oxidize. The car has been fun and reliable.
While I was excited about the new MR2, I cannot give up the capability to carry golf clubs and luggage for week end getaways.
I've had a rust issue on the two support / stiffening rods located under the rear pan. They appear to add addtional support to the trunk area. Both of these supports rusted and broke in two. I've had no other rust anywhere else on the car. The found that when I had luggage or weight in the rear trunk, I would hear a rattle on either side whenever I was on rough pavement or hit a bump. Is this a common problem?

The MR2 has always been one of my favorites and I never would have
dreamed that one would roll into my life to be mine. I have an '89
regular with only 75,000 miles on it. It has never seen a winter, and I'm
from Maine! I get looks all the time and I enjoy it most when I'm drivin'
