1998 Toyota MR2 G

4 speed automatic 93,386 verified miles 2.0L 3S-GE BEAMS Revision 5 RWD Color Code 3L1 (Orange Mica Metallic) 1 of 92 in this color code – 0.13% of total production This 1998 Toyota MR2 G is a standout example of the final revision of the legendary SW20 chassis. Powered by the factory 2.0L 3S-GE BEAMS engine and finished in Orange Mica Metallic (color code 3L1), this is one of just 92 units ever produced in this striking color, accounting for only 0.13% of all MR2s made. With 93,386 verified miles and no modifications aside from an Eclipse head unit, this car remains in impressively original condition. For collectors and drivers alike, this car presents a great opportunity to own one of Japan’s most recognizable sports cars and in one of the most eye catching hues offered. The naturally aspirated BEAMS 3S-GE engine delivers strong, responsive performance and pairs seamlessly with a 4-speed automatic transmission. Exclusive to the Revision 5 MR2s, the BEAMS (Breakthrough Engine with Advanced Mechanism System) was the most advanced version of the 3S-GE, featuring dual VVT-i and producing 197 horsepower, an increase that made this final iteration the most powerful non turbo MR2 ever built. Power from the BEAMS engine is routed to the rear wheels through the 4-speed automatic transmission and mid engine, rear wheel drive layout. Inside, the car is clean and original, with all the right features for comfortable, confident driving. Power folding and adjustable mirrors, power windows, power locks, tilt steering wheel, cold A/C, and hot heat make this a practical choice without sacrificing the character of a true Japanese sports car. The seats, door panels, and dash remain in great condition, and the aftermarket Eclipse head unit is the only departure from the factory spec. The exterior is finished in Orange Mica Metallic, a factory color offered only on a tiny fraction of MR2s, and it remains one of the most distinctive and uncommon finishes available. This Revision 5 benefits from the final cosmetic updates to the SW20 platform, including clear front corner lights, revised tail lamps, and the updated rear spoiler. The body lines are clean and sharp, and the car sits on original wheels that suit the chassis without distraction. It presents as a well kept, honest example of a car that’s becoming increasingly difficult to find in stock form. This SW20 checks all the right boxes—rare color, final revision and BEAMS engine. Whether you’re looking for an original example to enjoy as is or a solid, well maintained base to customize and make your own, this MR2 offers a unique opportunity. It combines factory authenticity with the potential for whatever direction you want to take it.
