2003 Toyota MR2 Spyder

Pros: Cornering, acceleration, handling
Cons: 2 seats with no trunk room

A review I read talked about not driving in the snow. Well I have been through two winters using an MR2 as my primary commuting car (30 miles each way) and it's been great in most conditions. Deep snow can be a problem but why not stay home and go cross country skiing anyway.

I have snow tires all around and it has been great.

Pros: Looks, Price, Gas Mileage, Convertible Top is easy to use, Handling
Cons: NO Storage and it's bad in snow.

I bought my MR2 in January 2003 and quite simply I love it. People often mistake it for a car, two or three times its value. And I rarely see another one on the road. The car handles excellently and runs strong.

You can cram two small weekend duffles behind the seats and fit golf clubs in the passenger seat with no passenger of course- but LIMITED storage... then again- who cares? It's an amazing car, especially for the price.

Pros: A blast to drive, good gas mileage, easy to park, a head-turner.
Cons: Almost no space to carry anything, hard to get in and out of.

I was lucky enough to find a gently used 2003 MR2 that I've been driving for a month now. And I love it! I find myself looking for reasons to go for a drive! It did take me a while to get used to sitting so low to the ground and the limited visibility (compared to my Highlander!), but now I drive it with confidence. It is the most impractical car I've ever owned - but also the most fun. It shifts easily and smoothly, corners like it's on a rail, and accelerates fast enough to feel the G's. I certainly feel every groove and bump in the pavement, but the ride is not uncomfortable. It is a real head-turner everywhere I go, and people seem to think it cost more than it did. On a scale of 1-10, I'd give it a 9.9. Love it!

Pros: EVERYTHING!
Cons: NOTHING WORTH COMPLAINING ABOUT!

WHO CARES ABOUT THE LIMITED SPACE! DUH...ITS A ROADSTER! I AGREE IT MAY LACK SPACE AS IN WHERE TO PUT YOUR GROCERIES...BUT LETS FACE IT FOLKS, THAT'S NOT WHAT I BOUGHT IT FOR! IT DRIVES LIKE A DREAM...LOOKS HOT...HAS GREAT PICK UP...HANDLES CORNERS LIKE A RABBIT (AND I MEAN A RABBIT AS IN THE ANIMAL...NOT THE CAR!) AND DID I MENTION IT LOOKS HOTTTTT!!!! I LOVE MY SPYDER AND HEADS TURN EVERY WHERE I DRIVE IT! A FUN LITTLE CAR THAT TRULY PACKS A PUNCH!

Pros: Absolutely gorgeous. Handling is superb. Gas mileage is fantastic.
Cons: (There's miniscule storage space, but I knew that when I bought it)

I just purchased a used 2003 MR2 Spyder with only 8k miles on it. I have to say, quite frankly this is the most beautiful car (of the sportscar genre) I have ever seen. I think it is prettier than the Porsche Boxter which is over 2x the price of the Spyder. When you are driving this car, you have such complete control, that you can't help but feel completely safe. It responds to your every whim. It handles superbly. Turns of any kind are not an issue at all. It hugs the road with very little, if any, tilt or lean. If you need a quick acceleration, OH YEAH, it's there for you. It responds to your slightest steering commands, without overreacting, which makes maneuvering seem so pleasant. Guaranteed.....when you are driving this car, heads will be turning all over the place. Just yesterday, I thought one poor guy was gonna get whiplash just from doing a double take as he passed me. Would I recommend this car to people? NO....why? because I don't want anyone else around to have one! I like being the only one in my area with one (that I've seen anyway).
