It is a small car so make sure you are comfortable with that
I like that it is a convertible and that it is sporty. I like the handling. I would like if the car accelerated faster.

Quick review of 2002 Toyota mr2 spyder - 5 speed manual.
The vehicle drives really nice and has continued to perform great! Toyota makes an amazing product. It is definitely on the smaller and lighter side. So when it is raining, one should pay more attention to the control of the vehicle as it has the potential to automatically slide, hydroplane,& swerve more than the average car. It is very quick and picks up in the higher gears. Short gear ratio. It has been a really reliable vehicle for me and when it needs any service done, most work can be performed within the day since parts are common. The interior is nice and is not pure plastic like the new cars. The fabric convertible top is easy to clean. One minor issue is the interior rain ducts that passes through the rain from the top to each side of the car, gets clogged after a handful of years but should really be cleaned out once a year.
