Did you own a Toyota MR2 in high school, college or even after graduating from college and did you always wish you could have traded up to the turbocharged model?
Here's your second chance with this '95 MR2. While it is mostly the non-aspirated model, the most important change is the behind the driver – the standard 2.2L engine has been swapped with a 2.0L inline four-cylinder turbocharged engine installed by Toy-Auto Masters in Englewood, Colorado in 2010.
This example was made in October 1994 at Toyota's Sagamihara, Kanagawa factory in Japan.
The car's paint and trim are in overall very good order as it was garage-kept but it does have a few blemishes visible at close range. The engine bay is very tidy while the cargo hold is clean. The car's body-colored bumper fit tightly to the body. This model is equipped with a T-bar roof, removable glass panels and inside sun covers.
This car rolls on Falken Ziek radials, size 195/55R15 in front and 225/50R15 in rear. Each one is mounted to a factory alloy wheel. The four tires are in good, original order while the wheels look great. There's a spare tire and wheel in the front truck (frunk).
Out back under the vented hood is the car's transplanted heart, a 2.0L turbocharged four-cylinder (code 3S-GTE) engine with a rebuilt turbocharger. Mechanical differences on the Turbo models include:
3S-GTE engine with associated air-to-air intercooler and different exhaust configuration
Stronger and heavier E153 gearbox with different ratios and stronger axles
Larger fuel pump and radiator
Models with 3S-GE and 3S-GTE engines had twin-piston front brake calipers
Backing up this engine is a five-speed manual. Driver convenience features include air-conditioning, power rack-and-pinion steering, power four-wheel disc brakes with new pads and rotors, cruise control, power windows, power locks and power sideview mirrors, remote frunklid and fuel filler door releases
Safety equipment includes dual front airbags and anti-lock brakes. The car also has an alarm system but it is inoperable.
Inside, the car's tan leather interior (code LA02) looks great thanks to new leather bucket seats. The carpet and floormats are in good order. There's a four-spoke steering wheel, a black dashboard and center console complete with shifter and passenger-side parking brake and they are all in great condition. The inner door panels continue the black-and-tan theme and also look good. A factory AM/FM stereo with a cassette deck rounds out the interior.
Competition to this MR2 in 1995 included Chevrolet's Cavalier, Honda's Prelude, Nissan's 200SX and Pontiac's new-for-1995 Sunfire.
This MR2 is only just now broken in and the engine swap gives the car a new lease on life; are you interested in being its next owner and seeing how long it takes to get to 264,000 miles? Visit MotoeXotica Classic Cars today!
