Notes
The MR2 Spyder was facelifted for 2003, with new front and rear fascias. New headlights,
new tailights, and front fog lights headed up the changes. Larger rear wheels were
also fitted. In addition, the sequential transmission was updated from five speeds to six.
Interior gauges were also restyled, and chrome trim was added to the cabin.
Finally, the rear antenna was switched to a power mast, instead of a fixed unit.
