MR2 Turbo - what year? Options

[Illyont]

Hello guys!

What are the latest years turbo MR2's are available in Japan? I'm pretty sure it is 95' in the US, and 99' in Japan.. But I'm not sure.

Someone in here have great knowledge about this, but I don't remember who.

The JDM turbo MR2 (mk2) have the 3S-GTE engine and 245ps (220-230 hp) to my knowledge, and because they are sold after they stopped selling them in the US, they probably have better milage and condition.

A 99' car is today almost 7 years old, and should be really cheap, but everything I can find here in Norway is regular GT's with the 3S-GE engine, and a few GTS with the 2.2 litre 5S-FE engine (and I don't want that.. )

I don't know where you are all looking.. there are a handfull of MR-2's between 91-93 Turbo in the NW for 3-5K. Granted, they all have like 175K, but you can get the MR2 for 3.5, a new 3S and tranny for around 1.7K and there you have a good-as-new MR2 for 5200 bucks. Makes me want to sell my Celi and pick it up.

wow I wish I could find a turbo for that price. There's a 91 turbo for sale in town here for $4000 but it's a piece of crap and needs a lot of work. Otherwise there's nothin. I found an NA car that needs engine work for $500 in alabama, which would be good for me bc I'm putting a 1mzfe in anyways but still. They're hard to find and expensive once you find one.
