2001 Toyota MR2 Spyder Preview summaryImage

The 2001 MR2 Spyder didn’t see any changes, as it was just introduced the year before.

The 2001 MR2 Spyder came in only one trim level, with no available options. The only choice buyers got to make was the color. The engine, which was mounted in the middle of the car, was a 1.8-liter, 138 horsepower four-cylinder. The transmission was a five-speed manual, and it had rear-wheel drive. The top is designed to sit flush with the body of the car when down, so no cover is required. Fuel economy is about 25/32.

Drivers of the 2001 MR2 Spyder say they love it because it is fun to drive, handles well, and looks good doing it. They also like the affordable price tag and the Toyota reliability. Some caution that repairs can be expensive due to the location of the engine, and most complain about the lack of storage space.

This car is everything I was hoping for and more! What a gem this find was. A stock 2001 solar yellow mr2 Spyder with only 23,000 miles! This car is so clean and rides great. May 30, 2022

This Toyota MR 2 Spyder is fun to drive, its nimble, tight. Nice little roadster. Value is in the eyes of the beholder. Prices are pretty salty on most that are available. The only thing missing is storage space. Small storage space behind seats, but a luggage rack on back could help that. Compatible models might be the Nissan Miate or the Honda S2000 which is even more expensive.Apr 13, 2022
