MR2 Spyders shown in Absolutely Red with available Black leather trim and Silver Streak Mica with Gray cloth interior.
You had some great times playing on asphalt as a kid—but nothing compared to the fun you’re about to have.
The 2003 Toyota MR2 Spyder has a powerful all-aluminum 1.8-liter 16-valve VVT-i engine, mounted midship for
balance and handling usually reserved for the racetrack. The similarity between the MR2 Spyder and race cars
doesn’t stop there: there’s also an available 6-speed sequential manual transmission. And an ultra-rigid yet
supremely lightweight chassis, which helps give the MR2 Spyder its remarkable power-to-weight ratio. Think
about it. Now that you’re an adult, there’s endless asphalt to enjoy. Which may explain why you couldn’t wait to
grow up.
The moment you get behind the wheel of the MR2 Spyder you start to feel different. The available 6-speed
sequential manual transmission is one reason you’re feeling so energized. This race-derived feature eliminates
the need for a clutch pedal. And then there’s the MR2 Spyder’s perfectly balanced mid-engine layout—no back
seat, no back-seat drivers. And the drilled aluminum sport pedals. The available leather-trimmed seats. The
black-on-white gauges…there are other ways to elevate your heart rate. But none that are so exhilarating.
