Description
THIS… is a 2003 Toyota MR2 Spyder, finished in BMW Black Sapphire Metallic with a black soft top and a black interior.
- The attached Carfax history report indicates no accidents in this MR2’s past. It also shows Florida ownership until 2022.
- According to the build sheet provided in the gallery, notable factory equipment includes a manually-folding soft top, power windows, mirrors, and locks, and air conditioning.
- Notable modifications reported by the seller are numerous, and the full list is detailed below. Highlights include a Toyota 1MZ-FE engine swap, an On3 Performance turbocharger, a Toyota Celica-sourced manual transmission, a limited slip differential, Megan Racing coilovers, a repaint in BMW Black Sapphire Metallic, a TRD front lip and side skirts, and a rear ducktail spoiler.
- The third-generation MR2 (“Midship Runabout, 2-Seater”) is a mid-engine, rear-wheel drive convertible; it also seats just two and weighs less than 2,200 pounds. These lively machines are known for agile handling and performance, and Toyota’s reputation for excellent reliability is another big plus.
- Power comes from a turbocharged 1MZ-FE 3.0-liter V6. Output is sent to the rear wheels via a 5-speed manual transmission.
