Powered by Toyota's wonderful "Sweet Sixteen" engine, the MR2 was as much fun to drive as it was to look at. It displaced just 1.6 liters, but the 16-valve DOHC electronically fuel-injected engine produced 112 horsepower, and was enough to propel the Toyota MR2 to 60 mph in a little over eight seconds, and on to a top speed of over 120 mph. The original Toyota MR2 featured four wheel independent suspension (of course) and disc brakes all around, the fronts being vented.
