You are looking at a 2009 Toyota Corolla XRS that had an engine failure. The car is the top of the line model XRS that has the upgraded 2.4L 4 cylinder engine and sport suspension, brakes, and a few other touches that make it stand out from the other models. This one has been driven a lot- 132000 miles and it has some wear and tear but has held up well. It has not been in an accident, has original paint, and driven on the highway a lot. The paint has scratches here and there but most notably there are long scratches on the hood (see pic) and some on the roof from dragging something across it when the paint was dirty. The roof has very minor hail damage but there is no hail on the rest of the car. The front left fender has a small 2 inch dent. The front bumper lower valences or ground effects have both been bumped and are loose. The front bumper has plenty of nicks from rocks but is in good condition. The only other body dent issue to note is the right rear door has a 4 inch or so dent (see pic). There are some decent scratches on the rear bumper valence on the bottom left. (see pic). The paint otherwise will shine up nicely. The interior could use some cleaning but is fairly clean already, and is in good condition. It has black cloth seats that are made of quality cloth and are in good condition. The carpet has a few stains. The carpet and the floor mat under the drivers pedals has a wear mark that goes all the way through the fabric. The dash is in good condition. Options include a 6 disc cd changer, bluetooth hand free system with voice activation, XM capable stereo, AC, Sunroof, power mirrors, power windows, power locks, cruise control, tilt wheel, keyless entry (with one FOB), two glove boxes, and lots of cup holders. The passenger side door hinge limiter (that keeps the door from opening too far) is broken in half and needs to be replaced.
Mechanically- The engine through a rod through the block and is not repairable. It needs a new engine and does not start. It has a 5 speed automatic transmission, stability control (with a switch to turn it off), and anti-lock brakes. The wheels are the XRS-only 17 inch aluminum wheels with 215/45/17 tires. The tires need to be replaced immediately.
Overall this car has a lot of potential to either be a great car for the buyer or to make money if the intention is to fix and sell. Please look up many different online appraisal estimates and then also search for other cars like this for sale to see what they are selling for. The XRS trim line is uncommon and often sells for more then book value because of this. Sold as is, not running, and needs to be towed at the buyers expense. I will coopereate with any shipping arrangements made by the buyer at the buyers expense. Please ask any pertinent questions prior to bidding and I will get back to you ASAP! Thank you very much for looking!

Toyota GT86 engineer Tada recounts how sports car came to be
Wed, 13 Feb 2013Because the Toyota GT86, Scion FR-S and Subaru BRZ coupes are now a reality, it's almost hard to imagine the struggle that had to happen within the large, conservative corporate structures at both automakers for the joint project to even get off of the ground.
Speaking to those struggles on Toyota UK's Toyota Blog, GT86 Chief Engineer Tetsuya Tada enlightens us with a recap of the sports car's earliest origins. For Tada, the first stages of the project must have seemed almost as dreamlike as the final product is to drive.
Said the Chief, "I had been working in the minivan department engineering new product, but a month after the meeting I was summoned. 'Forget about minivans,' they said, 'you are now working on the sports-car project.'"
Pickup sales may hit 2M units for first time since 2007
Sat, 21 Sep 2013Even as fuel prices creep back up, trucks are still a hot item among new-vehicle shoppers. To see how popular pickup trucks still are, you don't have to look any further than how much effort automakers put into the continual one-upmanship of their trucks. Backing this fact up, USA Today is reporting that the segment could top two million sales this year - a total not matched since 2007, though still far from the pre-recession, three-million-unit levels.
Through August, the Ford F-Series continues to be the segment leader with almost 500,000 units sold, but the Chevy Silverado (328,269), Ram 1500 (234,642), GMC Sierra (122,232) and Toyota Tacoma (110,293) are all seeing at least 20-percent sales increases, helping to account for around 1.44 million truck sales so far this year - not including possible outliers like the Suzuki Equator and Chevy Avalanche.
This year alone, General Motors has completely redesigned its fullsize trucks, Ram and Toyota have significantly updated their offerings, the next-gen Ford F-150 will be out next year and Nissan is promising an all-new Titan around the same time with an eventual Cummins diesel under the hood. It would seem, then, that truck sales are poised to continue their upward trend.
GM repairing 40,500 Pontiac Vibes as part of Toyota airbag recall
Wed, 09 Apr 2014General Motors has confirmed to Autoblog that the Pontiac Vibe is included in Toyota's just-announced recall action. The Vibe and the Toyota Matrix share a large number of parts, including the affected cable to the airbag.
"About 40,500 Pontiac Vibes from the 2009-2010 model years are included in the Toyota recall. Toyota designed and engineered the Vibe for Pontiac. GM will service customers with these vehicles when Toyota makes the parts available," said GM recall spokesperson Alan Adler to Autoblog in an email.
The recall covers 1.3 million Toyota units in the US, including 2009-2010 Corolla, Matrix and Tacoma, the 2008-2010 Highlander, the 2006-2008 Rav4 and 2006-2010 Yaris, plus the addition of the 2009-2010 Vibe. The models all have their airbag module attached via a spiral electrical cable. The connections on this cable can be damaged when turning the steering wheel. Once broken, the airbag deactivates and the airbag warning light comes on. Toyota has an improved part, but it's still making preparations to begin repairs. It will begin notifying owners soon.
