Exotic looks, top-shelf performance, Toyota reliability: Yep, we’re talking about the second-generation MR2.
Similar to its predecessor, the original MR2, the sequel adhered to a comparable formula: midship-mounted engine, minimal bulk, and accommodation for only two occupants. Toyota's decision to produce a second-generation MR2 deserves recognition. By this point in automotive history, affordable, mid-engined sports cars had become scarce after the failures of both the Pontiac Fiero and Fiat X1/9 to endure into the early ’90s.Despite the dearth of competition, there was no denying the exceptional nature of the second generation of the MR2. The media, as expected, was enamoured. Road & Track’s initial review concluded on a highly positive note: “Consider that this latest MR2 is for those who can appreciate the graceful evolution of the mid-engine lightweight champion of the world.”
We are pleased to introduce to the market this impeccably preserved Super White MR2 Targa, having covered just under 35,000 kilometres since its original sale by Toyota Ryde in Sydney, rendering it a true survivor. Complete with its Toyota wallet and all original manuals, this car arrives at our showroom fresh from a service at Sydney City Toyota, primed for immediate enjoyment!
The second-generation MR2 took a significant design leap from its 80s wedge-shaped predecessor to the 90s, with many journalists feeling it exhibited a much more cohesive aesthetic with its mature contour lines and minimal embellishment.
Upon entering the cabin, one cannot help but admire the glass roof, instantly lending an open and spacious feel to the two-door coupe. The dashboard and instrument panel unmistakably evoke the 90s, offering clear and precise instrumentation, much like the feedback experienced on the road. With many MR2s serving as the foundation for elaborate builds among Toyota enthusiasts, finding an untouched example, let alone one with minimal mileage, is becoming increasingly challenging.
