1993 Toyota MR2 Turbo, Very Rare
Always garaged, adult owned Florida car.This car is a perfect example of one discerning man’s automotive dream. After owning Porsches and a few Ferrari’s the very picky owner discovered MR2’s later in life.He spared no expense in building a true super car. He started with having the engine built to specifications, professionally by Engine Logistics of Texas.Nothing was left out as money was not an issue in his pursuit. Wanting the car to accommodate the custom-built Fiske FM5 wheels, the fenders would need to be altered and it was also decided to customize the side intakes. The car was professionally repainted, not that it was needed, but it gave him something to focus on while he waited for the engine to be complete. After enjoying this ride for around 3,000 miles he unfortunately passed away at which point one of his best friends, my father purchased this car for his MR2 collection.He enjoyed it for a very limited time, maybe another 1,500 miles before he passed.It has been stored in a climate-controlled building with the other MR2’s since his passing two years ago.

This vehicle is capable of handling 35 psi of boost.At this level it would produce 750 WHP. It is currently capable of close to 500WHP on 24 psi of boost on race fuel.Dyno sheets available.If you know what an MR2 is and you have dreamed of owning one of these rare machines, this may be for you, but only if you like attention and performance.There are some minor flaws as it is a car from 1993.The wheels have some slight crazing on clearcoat.I cannot find any real signs of curb rash. The tires are brand new. The paint is better than factory and has a very high gloss as it has not seen much sun. There are no dents I am aware of. The interior is almost perfect, with no tears or rips in the leather.All the power options work as far as I know.I would welcome any inspection before bidding and can help in shipping if needed.We have a few other MR2 show quality cars that we will be selling, but this the monster in the stable.The original owner invested over $40K in this build on top of the car purchase price.Please bid only if you intend to buy so we don’t waste personal time. Thanks for looking and let me know if I can help in any way.
