Our Take:
- A True 80s Icon: The 1986 Toyota MR2 is a prime example of 1980s automotive innovation—especially with its mid-engine layout. Toyota's decision to use the 4A-GE engine (the same twin-cam 16-valve engine found in the legendary AE86) in the MR2 gave it a sporty punch that's still appreciated by enthusiasts today.
- Driving Experience: With a manual transmission and rear-wheel drive configuration, the 1986 MR2 offers a pure driving experience that many modern cars just can't replicate. The hydraulic clutch may need some TLC, but once sorted, it ensures each gear shift is smooth and engaging—ideal for those twisty backroads.
- Design Features: Pop-up headlights? Check. Sunroof? Check. These features not only scream 'classic' but also bring a touch of nostalgia for those who remember the golden era of Japanese sports cars. Plus, an air conditioner that actually works is a rare find in cars from this era.
- Condition and Rarity: Considering it's driven only 107,843 miles, this MR2 is practically a spring chicken compared to other classics of its age. Finding one in good condition with a well-maintained interior is becoming increasingly rare, making it a potentially valuable addition to any enthusiast's collection.
