The Toyota MR2 model is a two-seat vehicle that features a mid-range engine and a rear wheel drive capability. It is a sports car developed and produced by Toyota since 1984 until July 2007 when its production ceased. There are three different generations of the Toyota MR2, namely the MKI or 1st generation, the MKII or 2nd generation and the MKIII or the 3rd generation.
