2006 Corolla LE sedan VIN # - 2T1BR32E76C591371
I bought this car new for my wife in 2006. It has had Mobil 1 engine oil in it since the first oil change and I've changed the oil at 5000 mile intervals since then. It has about 1000 miles on the last oil change. A few months ago I gave it to my son and bought my wife a new 2013. But he has to be a macho-man and drive a big SUV thing which he already complains costs too much to run. So now I'm selling the pretty-much perfect 2006. To you I guess.
Early on I replaced the wimpy OEM horns to some Serious loud and impressive sounding units. I later installed Continental's highest wet-traction rated tires and I guess they are still about half there. Fabulous tires too - they made it handle at least 200% better than the original tires - it just became a completely different car with the Continentals on it. The brakes are all new and the brake fluid was flushed and changed at 60K miles. Whatever it says in the owners manual to do to the car - I have always done. I always kept the car nice for her. Not too long ago, maybe last fall, the dealer replaced the CPU computer unit even though I specifically told them not to as I was having no issues with it. It was a recall and I guess they like to back charge Toyota whenever they can.
I have four Toyotas now and have had more in the past. They always treat me like gold, never cause any problems, and apparently run like a fine watch forever. One of mine is over 20 years old now too.
With less than 62K miles on this 2006 - my thought was that it would last my son well through his doctorate degree and then maybe he could teach His son to drive in it - but I guess he knows more than the old man. This 2006 will Run down the road too. It's astonishingly fast and has averaged about 32-34mpg ever since it was new. No wait; the first tank it got 30.9 mpg - but never again that low.
This is basically a clean, well cared for, adult driven, non-smoking Corolla which has no real flaws other the scrape on the rear bumper. I'm not sure that anything other than cloth grocery bags have ever been in the trunk. You can see that the paint looks very nice, the car has always been kept washed and waxed and under cover, the carpet and interior is nice, and everything functions just as it should with no issues. The car runs, drives, and looks great and will no doubt last for another 200K miles. I am Very sorry now that I didn't just keep this 2006 and not buy the 2013 at all.
Any questions - just let me know.
Good luck bidding.

Tesla pulling plug on Toyota RAV4 EV battery deal
Mon, 12 May 2014The future of the Toyota RAV4 EV appears to be in doubt. Tesla supplies the EVs battery packs, and it says that production ends later this year.
"Toyota is expected to end the current RAV4 EV model this year," Tesla said in its quarterly financial filing obtained by Bloomberg. "Our production activities under this program are expected to end in 2014," the company said.
This timeline fits closely with the original production plans for the RAV4 EV. When the $100-million project was first announced, Tesla said that it expected to supply battery packs for the vehicle from 2012 to 2014. Building components for the Japanese automaker continues to bring in money, though. In the company's Q1 2014 letter to shareholders, it said: "Automotive revenue included $15 million of Toyota powertrain sales." According to Bloomberg, Toyota has sold just 1,594 RAV4 EV models from 2012 through April 2014. Initially, the business had estimated that it would sell 2,600 units of the electrified crossover.
Toyota Auris gets new Touring Sports variant
Tue, 19 Feb 2013Toyota showed off the Touring Sports version of the Auris next to the newly introduced Auris Hybrid at last year's Paris Motor Show, but didn't say much about it. Six months later, just ahead of the Geneva Motor Show, the company is crowing about that wagon going on sale with the Hybrid Synergy Drive, creating the Auris Touring Sports Hybrid.
The hauling version of the exceptionally popular Auris hatchback doesn't just add a hybrid wagon to the compact segment, Toyota says it offers class-leading load capacity of 1,658 liters with the Easy-Flat one-touch rear seats down. With the rear seats up, it offers 530 liters. The little big gulp is possible because the hybrid batteries have been placed under the rear seats instead of being in the luggage area.
It looks the same as the hatchback save for the fact that it's 285 millimeters (11.2 inches) longer behind the C pillar, has a redesigned tailgate and a lower load floor. Engines beyond the hybrid will match the rest of the lineup: 1.3-liter and 1.6-liter gasoline engines and a 1.4-liter D-4D diesel. There's a chance we'll see it in Geneva, if we don't there's a press release below to tell you all about it.
New drifting world record set in Toyota GT86
Wed, 30 Jul 2014We have entered a drifting arms race. Last year, BMW smashed the Guinness World Record for the longest drift by hanging the tail out for 51.3 miles around a wet skid pad in an M5 at the BMW Performance Driving School in South Carolina. That beat the previous milestone of nearly seven miles. Now, Bimmer's record is up in smoke as well and is in the possession of a Toyota.
German driver Harald Müller pummeled the old record to drift for 89.55 miles around a 0.15-mile (235.5-meter) course in Samsun, Turkey, in a Toyota GT86 (or Scion FR-S as it's known in the US). According to the Guinness World Records website, it took him 612 laps and 2 hours, 25 minutes and 18 seconds to manage the achievement. Sit back to watch a few minutes of the German's two and a half hours behind the wheel with the tail out.
