The 1995 Toyota MR2 Turbo is a magnificent specimen of a mid-engine, rear-wheel drive sports car that would never be built in today's world. It's a true driver's car, equipped with a manual transmission and a turbocharged engine that produces a respectable 200 horsepower. Toyota, known for its less-than-exciting electric crossovers, once had the audacity to create a machine like this.
This particular MR2 Turbo is up for auction on Cars and Bids, and it's a beauty. Painted in the best color available for the final model year, it's a sight to behold. The MR2 Turbo is part of the second generation MR2, known as the SW20, which was produced from 1991 to 1995. During this time, Toyota was also producing the Celica and the legendary Supra.
The MR2 Turbo is a car that exudes excitement and performance. Its mid-engine layout and rear-wheel drive configuration provide a thrilling driving experience. The 3S-GTE twin-turbocharged four-cylinder engine delivers a punchy 200 horsepower, making it a force to be reckoned with. And let's not forget the 5-speed manual transmission, ensuring that the driver remains fully engaged with the car at all times.
Inside, the MR2 Turbo may not be the most eccentric, but it does have a few interesting features. Storage compartments can be found behind the seats, offering practicality in addition to performance. The climate vent located on the driver's side blows air directly onto the driver's legs, a thoughtful touch that is rarely seen in modern cars. And let's not overlook the warning label on the sun visor, which provides valuable information on operating a turbocharged engine.
Driving the MR2 Turbo is an experience like no other. The clutch may not be as smooth as expected, but it is easy to modulate. The car handles exceptionally well, providing a thrilling and engaging ride. It's a rare gem that combines performance, practicality, and an undeniable sense of fun. The MR2 Turbo is a testament to Toyota's ability to create exciting sports cars, even if they have strayed from that path in recent years.
