The Toyota MR2 Is A Car Worth Buying | Vehicle Breakdown (3rd Gen)

The Toyota MR2 was a car that dominated the 90s tuner car culture. From the SW20 being tuned into 800hp monsters, to the first generation paving the way for the two-seater, mid-engineed, rear wheel drive sports car. But the least commonly talked about generation is the 3rd one known as the W30. The Midship Runabout-Sports was a different approach on the successful platform and featured a 1.8l inline-four engine. Although critics praised the car, it didn't survive which left it in a weird spot. How much is a Toyota MR2 worth? Was it fast? Were they worth it? Will Toyota ever bring it back? All fantastic questions about a car that had headlights bigger than your head.

And even though the TOyota MR2 are fantastic platforms and a great way to buy a budget sports car, you need to ask yourself if it was enough for you to pull the trigger. What're your thoughts?

Shhhh I don't want this thing getting more expensive!

[dimitargeorgiev]

stop revealing the cars i want to buy 😭

[SMSELWA]

i love all the mr2s, they're like the miatas crackhead brother, but in a really good way.

[gcancel]

I absolutely loved my mr2 Spyder. I miss it every day.

[youngdidgy]

I’ve been looking for a reasonably priced one for a while, but it seems like people have caught on to them! Would love to own one and turn it into a budget Lotus with a 2ZZ

[-Will.]

I hate videos like these bc they never fail to make everyone selling one increase the price 😂

[heckyou]

I own a mk1a 85 mr2 literally first gen, best driving experience I've ever had

[teamnosleepnyc]

Great video . Straight to the point, and you mention key factors about each vehicle you review.

A good friend of mine has a ZZW30 that he takes to Tail of the Dragon a lot, and because of that his attention to his build has been primarily to make it handle as well as possible. I’ve ridden in this car and it absolutely drives like it’s on rails, easily one of the best handle cars I’ve ever been in. If you frequent dragon and know a silver MR-S with a hardtop, a TRD wing and some 5Zigen wheels, you know who I’m talking about 😏

This reminds me of P.S Modify Chonburi's custom mr2s! They also mentioned the good chassis and driving feel that made the company's decision to use mr2s at the base!

Its not really an mr2 after the conversion but its so cool!

[citrusjuicebox]

Good thing you published this after I bought mine :)

Mrs is one of the best handling car. It responds so quick with little input, makes a great competition for miata, s2000 and boxter. Handling of the Mr-S is something very special, I’ve never driven something like this. Nearest one would be Lotus elise. The lightweight MR is rare jem now.

As a massive Toyota fan the mr2 is my dream car. It’s a beautiful piece of Japanese wonder with incredible power and reliability for its class

[kami_dred]

Unpopular opinion: this is the best looking one

[BaddDukk]

All MR2s are cool but I'm a Gen1 kinda guy.

[jamespakan]

The MR2 spyder is very good, especially in monster hillclimb series. Besides if you compare the car to its time it looks good.

[st.thomassinner]

Mk1 Audi TT is a super fun car...it's like a go-kart for adults with the power to weight ratio(with the 225hp version of the car), all time all-wheel drive with the Quatro drivetrain, and snappy steering make for an inexpensive fun car.

[DOJIELDIENVE]

Had one. Great fun. Excellent handling. Reliable as hell and lighter than the first Miata.

[TheFacelessWolf]

I'm so glad people are talking about this one now. I bought mine 2 years ago for $4k and now ones with the same mileage in the same condition are going for $7+

I've been looking for an mr2. Hopefully, I can get one in the next couple of months
