Single owner yellow 2003 Toyota MR2 Spyder for sale. This is an amazing car, and it is only being sold because we have run out of room. This car has always been garage kept, very well treated, serviced regularly (synthetic oil). This convertible is one of the most fun 2 door convertibles ever made, and was one of the first non-exotic cars with a sequential manual gearbox. So it has all the benefits of a manual car, but shifts without a clutch. You can use the gear lever to shift up/down or use the shift controls on the steering wheel for speed.


I also added a small turbo charger (6 PSI) to this car early on which adds just that little bit of extra kick to the engine. The engine appears to have been designed to handle more power, but probably never sold enough for TRD to add the turbo. The turbo doesn't impact fuel efficiency until you put your foot down, and then it spins up quickly and gives that bit of extra power. Only down side is that you have to use premium fuel. But the high quality turbo came with an O'Grady engine management computer, which can be tuned further if you'd like (I left it at the default safe settings). The modifications include an improved air filter, and the turbo really gives the exhaust an even better note.

2003 was the year the car received both functional and cosmetic changes. The chassis was stiffened for better handling, and the lights and interiors received cosmetic rework. Also the SMT was changed from 5 to 6 gears. Never have had any accidents or issues with this car, always serviced by Toyota (even after turbo kit). The clutch for SMT was replaced around 30K as part of the turbo addition work.

If you have ever driven an MR2 Spyder you know there is nothing quite like it (unless you have a Lotus Elise), and with the extra pick up it really becomes the car it always wanted to be. A good handling car, very comfortable for daily driving, yet pretty sharp in handling. Currently has performance tires (rather than all season), but this car was never driven in the late fall and winter months (we put in away in the garage for the winter every year from Nov to April or so). Really can't recommend this car for driving in snow. But this car has an amazing heater, you can easily drive with the top down and heat on even when weather outside is around 40 degrees. With windows up the inside wind noise and turbulance is pretty low.

The manual convertible top is in great shape, works very well. The interior is in very good shape, just a small amount of age, but nothing like what you'd expect for a 10 year old car. The exterior paint is in very good shape, a few small dings and chips, but nothing major. The paint and clearcoat are in very good shape as they were not exposed much to the elements and the car always has been polished. Includes original manuals and tools.

Ask any questions you may have before bidding, happy to answer. If you want to buy the car with buy it now and want to see it before contact me to make arrangements.

2014 Maserati Ghibli

Wed, 26 Jun 2013

Italy Passionately Returns To The Sport Sedan Game
In its 99-year history, Maserati has arguably never made a vehicle as important as this all-new Ghibli.
Of course, there have been countless styling breakthroughs, mechanical advances and technical innovations, but no single passenger car has been required to bear the weight of the Italian company like its brand-new sport sedan. If the Ghibli succeeds, Maserati will welcome tens of thousands of new customers and, most importantly, celebrate a rekindled relationship with demanding North American buyers. If the Ghibli fails - well, the truth is, nobody has written an option for failure.

Maserati releases quartet of videos featuring new Quattroporte

Tue, 06 Nov 2012

In case you missed it, Maserati has decided to introduce the world to its next Quattroporte well ahead of its official debut at the 2013 Detroit Auto Show in January. As expected, it's beautiful.
Not content to leave well enough alone, the Italian automaker has revealed a series of videos to go along with the six images and press release it had already let loose upon the globe's unsuspecting automotive press.
We're still a bit shaky on the details, but Maserati says the Quattroporte's new engine, assembled by Ferrari in Maranello, will "[establish] new benchmarks for Maserati in terms of power and acceleration." That sounds good to us, though we're not sure if that means 530 horsepower as possibly alluded to by the license plate on the press shots. We also note that the automaker says the car is designed to accept "a wide range of engine architectures," so that rumored supercharged V6 sounds likely.

Heidi Klum and Maserati go Beyond the Swimsuit for Sports Illustrated

Sat, 22 Feb 2014

When sports and cars come together, the world "super" often comes up - whether it's a high-performance super sports car, a racing series (like Japan's Super GT, Australia's V8 Supercars or Italy's Superstars series), the latest crop of Super Bowl ads from the world's automakers or a supermodel posing with a car in the pages of the Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue.
This year's edition already saw Lisalla Montenegro cozying up to the new Lexus RC F, but it's not the only pairing to be found between an import luxury performance machine and a swimsuit model. The new 50th anniversary edition of the popular bikini special features a seven-page pictorial titled "Beyond the Swimsuit" shot by Francesco Carrozzini.
The spread features the inimitable Heidi Klum posing beside and inside various Maserati models - including the new Ghibli S Q4, the GranTurismo MC Trofeo race car and the Quattroporte Ermenegildo Zegna concept. Of course it's not the first time we're seeing a leggy blonde stepping out of Modena's finest - a role often taken up by one Jodie Kidd, to say nothing of the rich and beautiful in exotic locales the world over - but it's a pairing of which we'll never grow tired.
