Used 2000 Toyota MR2 Spyder 2 Dr STD Convertible for Sale near Jackson, MS

As an older guy now in my '60's, I've owned my fair share of sports cars. In high school my sister and I jointly purchased a 1961 Triumph TR3; our first real sports car. I've owned an MGB (unfortunately), a TR6-GT, a Saab Sonnet and a Datsun 2000 Roadster. I purchased my MR2 Spyder 2 years ago and it now has a little over 70,000 miles on the odometer. The original owner took very good care of the car following the scheduled maintenance and changing oil every 3,000 miles. God bless this man. I drove the car home from San Francisco to where we live on the Southern California coast- what a beautiful drive! Top down, awesome response and handling, great fuel economy and...people's reaction to the car was amazing. I actually bought the car because I knew it was a reliable Toyota product that was fun, fast and economical, but I never expected the reaction I received at almost every stop. And I want to say this about the storage problem most people are concerned with. My wife and I traveled from Santa Barbara to Portland and back and never had a problem with storage- we even packed food for our picnics. It requires some forethought, but after living out of a Westfalia camper during our kid's surf careers; packing our MR2 was easy- we simply utilized the space available- problem solved! This car is absolutely the very best car I've ever owed. After two years and many trips around the West Coast I still hear myself saying - God, I love this car... and I do!

This is a car for people who are into DRIVING. Mine has the manual tranny - I LOVE listening to the engine (located right behind ya) respond to the accelerator and gear changes, and the mid-engine configuration really shows its stuff. Such a SHAME that Toyota continues to stonewall about the pre-cat issue.

This car is always great fun to drive, with a responsive engine and great handling - it will humble many more expensive cars around the twisty bits. Hardtop does make winter in England more bearable, and stops damage to the soft top when used (mine has been slashed in the past). It is also very good over speed bumps - no slowing down is needed - although even with really good suspension there is scuttle-shake when driving over London pot-holes.

This car is awesome for me, handling, reliable, tiny engine, 33mpg, fast. It is easy to slide around corners and still maintain control. The best part is that it is made for shorter drivers, and I am 5-7.

great acceleration and braking;v responsive,feels like its "glued" to the road! just dont be too hard on it! looks great-both inside and out. very comfortable. pretty good on the petrol, economica enough. car is great fun to drive.
