1991 Toyota MR2

A passion project spanning over ten years, this MR2 sports a newer JDM 3S-GTE motor offering 320hp at the crank. It was featured on The Smoking Tire and it wears a very long list of thoughtful upgrades that all work together to make this a well-rounded performer. While the chassis may have accumulated some miles, the car has been completely gone through with the suspension and brand new transmission having seen just a few thousand miles. This is one of the nicest builds we have seen in recent years and we hope it finds a good home in our community.

    Car history report

    Reported accidents are collisions that have been recorded by Carfax and AutoCheck through police reports or insurance claims. 

    Accidents usually aren’t deal-breakers, but they can affect the condition and value of the vehicle. We always recommend Carfax and AutoCheck reports followed by a pre-purchase inspection (PPI) - even if there are no accidents listed as some accidents go unreported.
