Mr TWO

The Mk2 (or SW21) is for many the greatest MR2. The new model evolved from the Mk1 in the late 1980s after a design competition inside Toyota where a number of key design departments were challenged to come up with a successor to the Mk1.

The Mk2 SW21 MR2 was in production for just over a decade before it was replaced by the completely different Mk3 convertible. During its lifespan there were five major 'revisions' of the SW21.

1993 Toyota MR2: An updated MR2 debuted in March 1992, as an early '93 model. Suspension revisions were intended to reduce rear-end breakaway in hard cornering. Changes included reduced ride height, higher-rate springs and shock absorbers, stiffer bushings, and longer rear toe-control arms. Tires grew wider and bigger in diameter (now 15-inch). Alloy wheels got a fresh design, and the base engine grew from 130 to 135 horsepower. Both models gained a larger front air intake. As standard air conditioning, power windows, and power door locks.
