Pros: Fun & Exclusive
Cons: Lack of storage space
I am the proud owner of a black on black 2000 Toyota MR2 Spyder. I traded my 1987 MR2 in on it. I bought this car with 4000 miles on it, for $20,000 and got $1100 for my trade in.
I had my old MR2 for 4 years and was very comfortable with...

Pros: EVERYTHING!
Cons: needs a 6th gear
I had a choice between the MR2, Miata and Z3. After test driving all of them, I decided to get the MR2 mainly because of its excellent handling. Deciding on the MR2 was super easy, the hardest part was finding one! The 5 dealers I visited had a mark...

Pros: Hugs the road. A thrill to drive. This is a sportscar
Cons: Cargo space? What cargo space?
The Bottom Line: I never knew driving could be so much fun.
Only 5,000 were built. So if you wanted one, you paid dealer mark up. In this case, $2000. He did through in a nose bra. Its still in its box. Anyone want to buy it? Can't have the car. I meant the bra.
The MR2 which has been around a...

Pros: handling, appearance, cost, mileage, drop-top!
Cons: no storage space, metrosexual (heh)
The Bottom Line: Most affordable pure sports cars on the market.
This review is based on a used 2000 MR2 Spyder with 51k miles, purchased on 5/1/2004. This was my first real car purchase. My last one was a beat up 92 VW Fox that I bought for $700 to get me to and from my internships back in college. I lived ...

Pros: Handling, power, brakes, looks, ease of top, pulling power
Cons: No 6th gear
And it is definately worth it.
I had a choice of a Lotus Elise 111S or an MG-F when I drove past my Toyota dealer (on my way to the MG dealership to put down a deposit) and saw a green Roadster sitting in the showroom. It just cried out to be...

Pros: Fun, Sporty, Reliable, Inexpensive, Eye-Catcher
Cons: No trunk, no keyless enter, no power antenna, no speed control
The Bottom Line: When is the 2003 coming out? :)
What a great little sports car for half the cost of the Porshce Boxster! I have had this car since Mar. 26 2000 and people still stop and ask me about it; everyone seems to think that it is Porsche at first glance and that is MUST be expensive. Far...

I bought this car because I could get it for MSRP. Shop around and you can get it for this price too! I wanted something fun, and sporty that didn't set me back 40K. I also wanted something...

Author's Product Rating: Recommended: Yes
Pros: Handling!
Gas Mileage!
Appearance (Solar Yellow!)
Looks I get from everyone on the road!!!
Cons: Trunk space (none);
Stereo just OK+;
No Cruise Control
The Bottom Line: More fun than practical. You only live once--MR2 is better- built and cheaper than a Porsche. (Buy it in Solar Yellow!)
I've owned five; count 'em FIVE MR2's. Think I like em?
The two old bodies (85; 86) were just FUN, and reliable as dawn. My 1991 Turbo is a whole different animal, and I still wax it once a month! I love it!
The new MR2 Spyder reminds me...

Pros: Great performance, always fun!

This opinion is a review of my Toyota MR2 Spyder after 4000 miles, with a few six-hour drives, three-hour drives, and lots of city driving thrown in. It covers what I love and what I am disappointed about, and to whom I would recommend this car. At the...

Pros: appearance, comfort, handling, suspension, coolness
Cons: cargo space
In looking for a new car recently, I test drove both the 2001 Toyota MR2 and its direct competitor, the 2001 Mazda Miata. Considering that you can probably get out the door with an MR2 for only $2k more than a Miata, I can see no reason to even think...

Pros: go-kart handling, MR2 cachet, fun to row gears, adequete power, STYLING!
Cons: should have a 6th gear, could benefit from Celica GT-S motor, storage space
The Bottom Line: A fun toy, I would love to own one myself. But this is no daily driver!
The original MR2 was a memorable car for me. I owned a 1987 Toyota MR2, or as I liked to call, mister two. Mister Two handled great, it felt as if it drove on rails, and when you really wanted to, you could easily get the tail swinging out. It was a...

Pros: Head-turning styling; hadles like it's on rails
Cons: Zero cargo space
The Bottom Line: I highly recommend this car because it is arguably the most fun you can have for under $25,000.
This car really has only one purpose. It's not to be practical; it's to be fun. And I can say it is a complete success. It's great looking (my wife and I endlessly receive compliments about it), it's suprisingly comfortable, it's a joy to drive, it's...
