1992 Toyota MR2 GTS Turbo review from UK and Ireland
"Great Engine, Great Looks, Good ride, Good price TOYOTA"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Somebody punched my mirror and broke it.
Nothing has gone wrong.
General comments?
The Mr2 Gts Turbo is a Great Car.
Its proper Quick, but be advised you will have to either Rev up to 3000+ on First And let Go, Or Allow Revs to go up to 5500 and higher to truly enjoy the engines power.
Handling is good and responsive, but I wouldn't say that the wheels are telling you exactly whats happening it still feels a bit hmm.. Softened
The cabin is very Cool Spacious Low And tight As a performance car should be..but It Lacks some soul like most japanese cars.
Mine has many useful options like Traction Control which is essential because this car would go into slides provoked or unprovoked and ten times more in the wet.
Being Mid-Engined be advised that simple services like changing plugs or oil filter might take double the time depends on the mechanic.
A LOT! of rattle and noise going over 80Miles quite disturbing that and I don't know if it applies to all mr2`s, but mine (With Recaro Seats) is hardly comfortable for long rides, but hey it's a sports.
The car is Proper Fast though if you are after speed this could be what your after under 6s 0-60 and a very good top end as well T-Top roof leaks just a bit under very heavy rain.
Hardly any space to put anything in the cabin unless you are a very flexible guy (Buy one and youll see why)
