For sale here is my 01 MR2 Spyder, or MR-S for you JDM folk. This is a non-smoker car that I've had loads of fun with for the last two years, but I really want to get a bike for college, so it's time to let someone else see why people like these cars so much. I am the third owner and this car comes with a big stack of receipts from its life so far, the first owner was a Toyota tech I've been told, and while the chassis has just over 120k on it, the suspension was fully redone at about 50k and the transmission/clutch/fly replaced at about 80k miles, I'll have to check the records again for exact times. The engine finally oil starved on a corner after burning copious amounts of oil, and when that occurred I had it rebuilt, this was about a year ago. Runs great now and no engine light, and doesn't burn any more oil than would be expected. The exhaust did come apart a few months ago so I replaced the section with a lighter, high quality piece, but that's been about the bulk of the issues since then! Also on the subject, it came with a K&N air filter which is the only real modification.
The tires have plenty of life left, if driven nicely probably 10k, and I did the brakes only once, they barely wear! Light car benefits. It gets about 30mpg in nice driving too. Overall, this car has no big issues and is ready for a new owner, the only problems are that it needs a new top, the current one only keeps out sun, and it's cosmetically imperfect, with a slightly messed up tail light and bumper, a few dings and scratches, and a few marks on the wheels. This isn't a concours car, just a great candidate for use every day or the weekends, it'll do either without complaint. People actually ask questions fairly often, and like I said, it's fun every time you drive it. If you have any questions feel free to ask, thank you for looking.

Toyota recounts past Supra glories
Mon, 29 Jul 2013It could just be a slow start to the news week around the Toyota offices, but its UK blog has posted a brief history on its legendary Supra sports car. Read into however you'd like, but there has been plenty of speculation as to the return of the Supra nameplate in recent years (including last month from incoming Toyota chairman Takeshi Uchiyamada).
Built from April 1978 through July 2002, Toyota's sports coupe made quite a name for itself as both the Celica Supra (shown above) and the Supra, and the blog post charts many of the changes and highlights through the years. Head on over to the Toyota UK blog to read more about this Supra's history, and then be sure to check out the gallery of images from Toyota spanning all four generations.
Weekly Recap: Things you might not know about the 2015 Dodge Charger and Challenger Hellcats
Sat, 16 Aug 2014If you're an enthusiast, and you don't know that Dodge spawned another Hellcat this week, you really must have been living in cave. The 2015 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat is probably the biggest news for enthusiasts since the reveal of, well the 2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat.
But, there are some things you might not know or might have missed about the new Charger and Challenger Hellcats. For starters, reports that the Hellcat production would be limited to a low volume are not true.
"We have not capped the Hellcat on either the Challenger or the Charger," Dodge CEO Tim Kuniskis said.
Toyota restructuring US operations, possibly moving to Texas
Sun, 27 Apr 2014According to multiple sources familiar with the matter, Toyota is poised to announce Monday that it is restructuring its US operations, which may include plans to relocate some of its operations to Texas. Toyota Motor Sales has been located in California since 1957, and is responsible for North American sales, marketing, and distribution for Toyota, Lexus and Scion. According to Toyota literature, its Torrance operations presently employs 6,156 workers and represents a $2.3-billion investment.
Workers in Toyota's Torrance offices were abuzz about the possible relocation to Texas. One young offspring of a Toyota employee even posted to Twitter that her parents warned about the upcoming move, and she said she's refusing to go.
Rumors at one point had Toyota settling in Richardson, TX, just outside Plano. But Autoblog talked to Richardson Mayor Laura Maczka, who said she would be thrilled if that were true, but has not heard anything on the subject. Autoblog also emailed with Bill Sutherland, a city councilman in Torrance, CA, who said, "To date the only info I have is what I have read in the paper expecting a press release Monday."
