This is a rare find! Toyota didn't make many of these sporty, modern convertibles, so don't expect this one to wait on you. Just picture yourself on the road in this MR2 - you won't see another car like it on every street corner, that's for sure. Be prepared for onlookers to stop and ask you what it is!! The convertible top lowers in a flash so you can fully enjoy top-down motoring, or suddenly enjoy protection from thunderstorms. The manual convertible top works easily, and you can lower it from the driver's seat. The roof folds nicely into the boot as a parallelogram, instead of the usual setup that flips over and collapses Make no mistake, this is a modern sports car. Like some Ferraris, its engine is mounted just behind the passenger compartment and ahead of the rear wheels, providing great balance and handling. The game little engine feels and sounds quite willing to rev beyond 6800 rpm, where the rev limiter kicks in, but that's an illusion because the power peaks at 6400 rpm. At 70 mph, it hums along at 3500 rpm, happily. We saved the best for last: the sequential manual transmission. It shifts much like an automatic transmission with a manual mode, in that there is no H-pattern, to upshift you slide the lever back one notch, to downshift you slide it forward. In addition, there are twin buttons on the steering wheel, under each thumb at 3 and 9 o'clock, and in the back where an index or middle finger can click it. This way you can upshift or downshift without taking your hands off the steering wheel, which is useful when you're really really driving hard like the F1 drivers, or when you're eating a hamburger or drinking a cup of coffee or talking on a cellphone.
