Re: beams?
The BEAMS engine is a 200 HP non-turbo engine that was an option after 1996, so it was not avaialbe in the US. There are a few of them here now though.

Re: beams?
toyota ceased importation of the mr2 in 1995, though the company continued to make the car through 1998. the later model cars in japan had a gen3 3sgte, on which the major difference from it's previous years are a CT20b turbo and elimination of the AFM. to my knowledge, a BEAMS engine has never been stock in a MR2 of any kind.

that information is incorrect... the stock n/a mr2 in 1998 did come with the single vvti beams 3sge (red top) and the mr2 was produced until 1999 though very few
i also said that there are very few IN THE WORLD since the engine was only found in mr2's for less than 2 years there arent any stock beams mr2's in america since, like ac427cpe said, the mr2 stopped production here in 1995

Re: beams?
theres slightly under 1000 world wide.
the main BEAMS engine is the the Altezza, or IS-200... but just the JDM version. here the Beams engine has dual VVTL-i (ont the intake and exhaust) but for some reason toyota decided to export the is200 with a 6cyl. So most countries never got them.
