Title: Build your own MR2.... MIA
Post by: Anonymous on September 22, 2003, 11:47
Anyone noticed on the UK Toyota site the "In Detail" section of the MR2 has vanished.  That was the bit that allowed you to "build your own" etc.

Wonder what's going on there.

I don't know, but noticed it had dissapeared a couple of weeks ago when I was mesing around on there for something to do. If there are any '04 facelifts due, I expect they will be annouced imminently....

Definately hints at facelifting, IMO.

Good thing they took it down; it had a whole bunch of Javascript bugs.

Do you really think they will launch another facelift after only a year?   s:? :? s:?

That's what I thought, either that or price changes.

Or perhaps they got rid of because it was crap... I just checked the USA, Japanese, and Australian market pages, and they are all fine.

On a more constructive note, configuring your own MR2 on Toyota GB's site is as simple as deciding what gearbox you want and in what colour. Options such as leather, spoilers etc were never included, so it was a fairly pointless excersize, and made the car seem fairly boring. They've replaced it with user accounts of how enjoyable the car is, which I think will help sales an awful lot more...
