See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections.Seller Notes:"I've owned this car since Feb 2009 (four and a half years) and have driven it regularly in local commutes and on the interstate at high speed. It is a solid car that needs some work -- were I to keep it I'd replace the tires, do a brake job, replace the windshield, and replace the rubber gaskets that are supposed to keep the T-Tops from leaking. The motor is strong - I put a timing belt in it about 15,000 miles ago. I've also replaced the clutch, alternator, and battery within the last 10,000 miles. This is not my primary car so it sits for weeks at a time but, as one would expect from a Toyota, it starts immediately every time and goes down the road without trouble. The A/C hasn't worked since I've owned and even though I live where it gets to 100 degrees in the summer, I've never bothered to find out what's wrong with it. If you buy this car you should expect a stiff ride, with more than it's fair share of squeaks and rattles - it's a 25 year sports car that's never been babied."

Someone bumped into the rear end which deformed the rear bumper, there are some minor dents and scratches here and there, the paint is weak in spots. To my knowledge the car has never been wrecked and shows no sign of any body repair.


The radio works, the cruise works, the headlights, tailights, turn signals, horn and so on work as expected.

You should buy it. I would.

2014 Toyota Corolla gets marginal IIHS small overlap crash test score [w/video]

Fri, 04 Oct 2013

Toyota may have performed some major surgery on the 2014 Corolla, but that hasn't helped the Japanese automaker overcome tough new crash test procedures. The Corolla, Toyota's bread-and-butter compact sedan, managed only a Marginal score on the new small overlap crash test, which was just added last year.
Despite the low score, the Corolla performed well in the moderate overlap front, side, rollover and rear testing, which was enough to score it a 2013 Top Safety Pick. In testing in August, six of the Corolla's competitors earned the Top Safety Pick + award, for good or acceptable scores across the board.
According to the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, the Corolla's "Marginal" score was down to an "intruding structure," that could cause injuries to the lower left leg. There was also concern that in a collision, the driver's head would move after hitting the air bag, and collide with the A-pillar or dash.

Toyota produces millionth truck in Texas

Thu, 19 Sep 2013

After going online in 2006, Toyota's San Antonio, Texas truck plant has just built its one-millionth vehicle, the 2014 Tundra 1794 Edition you see above. The plant originally focused on just the Tundra pickup, but the smaller Tacoma started rolling off the line there in 2010, as well.
Fittingly, the 1794 Edition (a new premium trim level for 2014) pays homage to the property on which the Toyota plant now resides - a ranch that was founded in 1794. Scroll down for the official press release for the plant's milestone, and be sure to check out the full gallery of Tundra 1794 Edition images as well.

Toyota's production fuel cell car to cost between $50-100k

Fri, 03 May 2013


While the cost of building a hydrogen fuel cell vehicle continues to go down over time, reports over the last few years have steadily maintained that the first Toyota hydrogen-powered vehicles for customers should ring up for around $50,000. Company officials cited this figure way back in 2010, and have reiterated it in subsequent years.
So, while a recent Automotive News report about the cost of Toyota's 2015 Hydrogen car doesn't offer up any new figures, it does offer an interesting pricing wrinkle. According to the report, the "cost factor" for the hydrogen vehicles will be in the $50k ballpark, meaning the retail price could be anywhere from there, up to as much as around $100,000.
