Overview & Reviews
After undergoing extensive changes last year, the MR2's upgrade for 2004 comes in the way of a newly optional limited-slip differential.
- Lively and precise handling dynamics, scores high on the fun scale, available SMT transmission, affordable compared to other European-brand roadsters.
- Severe lack of storage space, bland interior design, not many safety features available.

I love my car!!! - 2004 Toyota MR2 Spyder
By Mare94 - July 10 - 12:33 amI bought my MR2 used. I love it. It is blue and beautiful!! I especially love the carbon fibre dash work. I entered my car in a few shows and walked away with trophies. It rides great and handles those curves with ease. Great fun to drive!

love my mr2 - 2004 Toyota MR2 Spyder
By frogkrazy - May 28 - 10:00 amits fun...i get lots of questions about what kind of car it is...its not that common like all the miatas and bmws out there. nothing better than driving down the beach with the sun on your shoulders and the radio blasting u2s "its a beautiful day"! It handles curves better than any other car that Ive been in and with gas at $2 a gallon, 34 miles to one is great

Fabulous Car - 2004 Toyota MR2 Spyder
By Glenn Norris - December 26 - 11:03 pmIve had a blast driving this car! It drives and handles like a bullet. I once had a 1965 GTO and this car is faster! Its best to have a daily driver in addition to this one because it doesnt have much storage space, but hay, who cares? I normally keep it in the garage and only drive it in warm weather with no rain. If you want to get a lot of attention, this is the one! The front end looks like a Porsche, but you have the quality of a Toyota. I told my son, hell be inheriting this car. The car is extremely tight with no squeaks or rattles of any kind.

Fun Times - 2004 Toyota MR2 Spyder
By SpyderMom - May 15 - 10:00 amThis is a car to just have fun in, no more carrying around kids. Wonderful to drive, great with the gas prices being so high, fill it up about every 2 weeks. Good on the freeways, great around town.

Snow machine - YES - 2004 Toyota MR2 Spyder
By atoyotguy - March 4 - 12:05 pmMy summer-only Potenzas had to go, so I put a set of Michelin X-Ice tires on my 04 MR2 and voila! An unlikely snow machine! Before X-Ice I got stuck in a quarter-inch of snow. With the X-Ice tires installed I went to a level parking lot right after a 6-inch snow, before any plowing had been done. Much to my surprise, and delight, my 2200 pound, less than 6 inch ground clearance car thought it was a snow plow! I could start, stop, back up, and park - all without any problem. Sure, the tires slipped some, after all, it was slick snow. But I doubt that the engine revved over 2000 rpm at any time. Ice performance was just as good. Summer fun, winter fun; you cant beat it!

An Absolute Blast to Drive - 2004 Toyota MR2 Spyder
By WHWilson - February 20 - 6:43 pmThis is my daily commute car and is pure fun to drive. Top is easily raised and lowered in a single motion from the drivers seat. Handling is so precise and agile, I sometimes think this car reads my mind. I really wish Houston had more twisty roads. Gets approximately 28 mpg even though my normal freeway speeds are 85 mph+. Car is absolutely rock solid all the way up to top speed of 130 mph.

Pure fun with a practical side - 2004 Toyota MR2 Spyder
By Spyderflash - December 19 - 2:00 amI have driven this car for over a year and still love it. It is so light and responsive. Many would-be sports cars feel like trucks in comparison. The brakes are world class and I average 30 mpg on regular. It is my daily driver, and I have taken it on road trips with minimal driver fatigue. This is a car that knows what it is and doesnt compromise its basic purpose. The top raises or lowers easily from inside the car in about 7 seconds.
