Automated manual + ignorance = run, now.

Technically it’s a manual, an automated manual.

Technically, it’s not ‘wrong’, but it sure ain’t right either.

Wasn’t called the MR-2 in France.
Can you guess why?

I am generally curious as to why

It’s actually a sequential box.

Because the French pronunciation quite accurately describes the SMT compared to the traditional manual transmission?

So tell me about that RAV4 y’all have with the super rare third row.

I really want to drive one with the sequential trans.

I found the dealer online and the RAV4 in the mix of exotics intrigued me.

An Automatic in a tiny roadster makes no sense, unless you only have one foot.
It's even a 2003 too, I really prefer the face lifted look.

That’s Toyota’s SMG. In the US, it was also the only way to get a 6 speed in the 3rd gen MR2.
That said, from what I’ve read, it was fairly obviously a first generation of the tech. Not terrible, but also not good. I can’t imagine it’s stood the test of time. It’s also weird (or sad?) that Toyota never continued the tech beyond that one, limited market, car. Unless you count the LFA, which would be a stretch.

Excellent work. Have a picture of a ZX12R I saw a few weeks back:
