My name is Eric and I'm a Land Cruiser addict. I've owned more than 40 of them over the years and I can't stop
searching for exceptional and interesting examples. This one definitely is both. It's been my daily driver for the
past few months, but now it's time to make room for another one.
1997 Toyota Land Cruiser 80 Series in excellent condition. One family owned up until 2015. This is one of the few
"Poverty Pack" 80 Series in the US and is probably the nicest. Considered the "Holy Grail" not for what it has, but
for what it doesn't have. No Sunroof. No Leather. No CD Player. No 3rd Row Seats. No Fender Flares. No Sliding Side
Windows. No Running Boards. No Window Tint. No Alloy Wheels. No Frills.....(you get the point).
Fully locked with front, center and rear e-lockers. Old Man Emu (ARB) shocks with OME 2.5" springs in the front,
stock springs with 1.25" Slee Spacers in the rear. TJM Winch Bumper. 255/85/16 BFG Mud Terrain KM tires on freshly
powder coated steelies. Lloyd Rubber Mats.
Runs and drives perfectly. No leaks, squeaks or rattles. Everything works except the power antenna. No damage
history. $8,000 has been spent in the last 6 months on the following maintenance and improvements: Head gasket,
water pump, plugs, wires, belts, hoses, Interstate battery, fluids, A/C charge, new windshield, TJM Bumper,
re-paint and probably a few other things I can't remember.

Toyota demos its TRD Pro Series line [w/video]
Fri, 07 Feb 2014With a rich history of creating off-road worthy trucks and SUVs and a somewhat bland impression of its brand overall, Toyota has wisely created a line of TRD Pro Series vehicles to spice up its showrooms and newly engage customers. Debuting at this year's Chicago Auto Show before rolling into dealers this fall, the TRD-tuned vehicles include the 4Runner, Tacoma and Tundra, all with added rough-road gear and amped-up looks.
The TRD Pro Series trucks might end up, in many cases, as lifestyle accessories for outdoorsy types, but that doesn't mean they're all show. TRD springs and Bilstein dampers are set up for off-road performance, while skid plates will protect the softish underbellies of these would-be rock-crawlers. The trio all get lifted over stock height, as well, with two-inch gains for the Tundra and Tacoma (lovingly referred to as "Taco Supreme" in the Toyota press release), and an inch-and-a-half rise for the 4Runner.
We detailed all of the changes to the Pro Series vehicles in our original announcement post, and you'll also find more granularity of information in the Toyota press release below. Before you dive in, however, be sure to take in our set of live, action-packed images from the Chicago Show floor.
Aston CEO claims Cygnet cancelled because Toyota is dropping iQ in 2014
Sun, 27 Oct 2013While slow sales and a $50,000 price tag may have been contributing factors to the Aston Martin Cygnet being cancelled last month, Aston Martin CEO Ulrich Bez is pointing the finger at Toyota for the demise of this luxurious little city car. In a discussion with Autocar, Bez is quoted as saying that the ultimate reason the Cygnet was cut is because Toyota plans on dropping the iQ (on which the Cygnet is based) in 2014 - a claim denied by the Japanese automaker.
Interestingly, the article also cites another publication reporting that a Toyota importer in the Netherlands heard the same news as Bez, and it has already stopped importing the cars. If the European Toyota iQ is cancelled, that would likely spell the end of the slow-selling Scion iQ in the US, which has sold just 3,365 units through September (a drop of 51 percent year over year).
Regardless of why production of the Cygnet ended, Bez also says that a lack of support from Toyota on the project prevented it from being offered in the US or receiving a supercharged engine, which are two factors that likely would have made the car appealing to more buyers.
Hi-po Toyota GT86 to get KERS?
Fri, 09 Nov 2012We happen to like the Toyota GT86 - and, it of course goes without saying that the same applies to the Subaru BRZ and Scion FR-S, as well - just the way it is. Yes, that includes the standard 2.0-liter four-cylinder boxer engine and its 200 horsepower at 7,000 rpm.
That said, a little extra power never hurt anybody, right?
The most obvious way to add some punch to the GT86 would be with a turbocharger, and that has indeed long been rumored for an STI version of the BRZ. Will Toyota follow suit? According to Top Gear, the answer is no. Says GT86 chief engineer Tetsuya Tada, "I think 300bhp with a turbo and 200g/km of CO2 would be tasteless in this day and age. And a turbo would mean the loss of the GT86's uniqueness." Perhaps a bit harsh, but there you go.
