IS THAT A CELICA? Wait its a MR2 Spyder! : Drivers Stories Ep. 017

Welcome back to the channel! In this episode of Driver Stories, we’re back in Los Angeles to catch up with Thomas Zhuang and his unique 2004 Toyota MR2 Spyder – and trust us, this one’s a head-turner. I first spotted this wild build at All Toyota Fest in Long Beach last year. At first glance, I was thrown off – a Celica front end on an MR2 Spyder? I had questions. Unfortunately, Thomas wasn’t near the car that day, so I didn’t get to ask them. Fast forward to a chance meeting with Jordan (check out the last episode on his Toyota Camry!), and he helped connect me with Thomas for this full feature. Now that I’ve heard the story behind this standout MR2 build, I’m stoked to share it with you all. This episode dives into Thomas’s inspiration, the build process, and what makes his Spyder so different.
