The Toyota MR2 (Mid-ship, Run-about, Two-seater) is a mid-engined rear-wheel drive sports car by Toyota. It was manufactured from 1989 to 1998 and underwent numerous facelifts within its production time.
The MR2 was made available in the North American market with a 2.2 litre inline-four engine or a 2.0 litre turbocharged '3S-GTE' inline-four engine producing 198 bhp.[1] It was available in North America from late 1990 to 1995.
Besides the standard model, a custom MR2 with a body kit will be unlocked as well. Neither can be purchased in the career mode nor be customised by the player.
The MR2 sports typical Tuner attributes including tight handling and quick acceleration, making it a contender for race tracks that favour handling over top speed.
Need for Speed Carbon: Own the City
The Toyota MR2 also appears in the handheld spin-off Own the City, where it is fully customisable and usable in the game's career mode. The player can already use an MR2 in their first race in the career mode before purchasing their starter car.
The MR2 is later unlocked upon defeating Poorboy in the PSP release or Arjen in the Nintendo DS release. It is driven by Layla 2, one of the unlockable wingmen, and Sara at the start of the game.
Need for Speed: World
The Toyota MR2 was made available in Need for Speed: World on January 13th, 2012 as a Tier 1 car. Since August 22nd, 2012, it has been featured as a D class car.
The MR2 is considered as one of the fastest Class C cars in the game due to an above average nitrous boost and low weight. This allows it to have a sharp steering feedback and overtake heavier cars with better acceleration. The MR2's acceleration is typical for Class C, but does feel somewhat lacking in Class B. Top speed is 165 mph (266 km/h).
The B-Spec style is a Best in Class car that costs 6900. It was released on July 13th, 2013.
It is fitted with varying quality performance parts from different manufacturers, 3-star Skill Mods, and a selection of aftermarket parts.
