Mechanical

Only one issue that I’ve ever found with the car:
There is a slight high-pitched whistle sound after the engine has warmed up. Toyota
identified the whistle as coming from the vacuum diaphragm. Toyota techs did not see
any reason to have this fixed and recommended not to. This does not pose any
performance issues, it just causes a whistling sound.
All service records & receipts for all service work performed by Toyota, no third party
mechanics have every worked on this car.

All service records & receipts for all service work performed by Toyota,

Service History:

All maintenance records are included with the sale. Below is a service history summary.

The car has been ultra-reliable.
Car has only been serviced at Toyota Dealerships by certified Technicians

• Required 60K Maintenance (New timing belt, distributor cap, rotor and spark plug wire installed
All required & recommended service performed)

Other

It is in collector’s condition and that will be a collector’s classic and has the potential
to win best of show prizes in the years ahead.
Unlike other MR-2s that have been modified, still has a fully functioning Air-Bag.
I would never sacrifice a safety feature for higher performance. Also, with the highly desirable
and rare Limited Slip Differential the car will not fish tail or lose traction,
unlike many other MR-2’s without.
Experienced drivers preferred. A lot of young people have gotten in over their heads and crashed
their MR2 Turbos. It would be a terrible loss to have this car get destroyed. The car is very
responsive and controllable at its limits but still demands much more driver competence
than a front engine car.
Please don’t even think about this car if you plan on driving it through winters! Even if you wanted
to it is not suited to it, the rearward weight bias and low clearance would make it useless in snow
and ice and the huge coolant capacity would take forever to reach operating temperature
in negative temperatures.
MR-2 Turbos require a minimum of 1-3 minutes of cooling down before turning off the engine.

Price

Not cheap, but realistic for a car in this condition. I routinely see high mileage, 91-93 MR2 Turbos
in worse condition selling for less. A 93 Turbo (of which only a small number were sold in the USA).
MR2s in this condition with such low mileage with leather, T-Tops, and Limited Slip are EXTREMELY
rare and seldom ever are for sale.
