We're selling my wife's 2005 scion xa 1.0 realease series. It is a really neat little car and she hates to sell but with 4 children now it doesn't seem to practical to put back together.
So here's the good. Low miles 40907 and my wife has never been a racer. It is the first release series #972 of only 1550 made. In the 6 years we've owned it I've only seen one other. What the release series means is there is a handful of options that only came with that series; red exterior paint, sunroof, red stitching in seats, red interior lighting, special grill, custom 17" aluminum enki wheels. I believe it's the only xa that had a sunroof.
Now it has been in a little accident, I had a Navigator rear end me surprisingly it did more damage to the truck then car. By the looks to me there is no serious structual damage, but I'm not body man so take a good look at the pictures and if you need more just let me know. I'll try to list them best I can.
Front: bottom corner of bumper slightly dented, passenger fender damaged, passenger tire has slow leak. Rear: both tailights, bumper cover although support looks good, hatch damaged but glass and wiper good, tip of driver quarter panel damaged (possibly body worked). At one time I had all the parts priced on car-part.com all pretty inexpensive and readily available. It will need a battery and front tire is in trunk, has a slow leak so the donuts on it now, could use new tires before long I was starting to price them right before the accident. Well I believe that should cover it. Like said we hate to sell it but with our young army we've got going on it doesn't really work anymore, so if you're looking for a unique little car thats excellent on gas at a diy price this might be the one. We're keeping the reserve pretty low and open to straight offers, no low balling please it'll still books out pretty good with the rebuilt title. Thanks for looking. I can help with shipping if needed, have truck and trailer, for a fair fee.

EVO "2012 Car of the Year: The Track Battles" is a sports car salmagundi
Sun, 25 Nov 2012EVO has come out with another gotta-watch-it video, throwing its 2012 Car of the Year contestants around the UK's 1.5-mile Blyton Park track. It's actually a 15-minute teaser for the full-length DVD detailing the magazine's Car of the Year selection, but the tease is worth every penny free second.
Tiff Needell and sports car racer Richard Meaden handle the wheel duties, the two driving five pairs of sports cars: Lotus Exige S vs. Porsche Boxster S, Morgan Three-Wheeler vs. Toyota GT86, BMW M135i vs. Porsche 911, Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Black Series vs. Alpina B3 GT3, the marquee event pits the McLaren MP4-12C vs. the Pagani Huayra. After a head-to-head lap with commentary during drifts, Meaden takes each car out to set a representative lap time.
You'll find the verdicts, lots of tire smoke, and lines like "Anything you can do sideways I can do sideways" in the video below.
Scion FR-S pitted against oldtimers RX-8 and S2000
Tue, 07 May 2013There are very few vehicles available today that compare directly with the Scion FR-S and Subaru BRZ twins. A case could be made for the Mazda MX-5 Miata, and possibly even six-cylinder versions of American coupes like the Ford Mustang. Pretty much everything else is either too expensive or is powered by the wrong set of wheels.
The boys from EverydayDriver on YouTube decided the only fair way to judge the inherent qualities of the Toyobaru twins was to pit them against two standard-bearers of years past: The Honda S2000 and Mazda RX-8. Neither of these cars is an exact matchup, with the Honda boasting a convertible top and the RX-8 offering more practicality via a rear seat and two reverse-opening doors for easier access. What they do offer, however, are similar performance stats and proven reputations for excellent handling.
None of this talk answers the real question, though: Which one wins the comparison test? Scroll down to watch the video, and be prepared for something of a surprise conclusion.
Toyota 86 most likely to get more power through more displacement? [w/poll]
Wed, 21 Aug 2013The Sydney Morning Herald has spoken to Tetsuya Tada, chief engineer of the Toyota 86 (our version of it, the Scion FR-S, is pictured above), and they've been promised that more power is on the way. We've heard a lot of speculation about a more powerful Toyobaru since before the standard model was even launched. The only question now is how the power will be delivered, and among the engine concepts we've already heard about - turbo, supercharger, twin-charged, hybrid - is a new one: more displacement.
Tada said that an engine with more displacement than the current coupe's 2.0 liters is being tested alongside a turbocharged and a hybrid-assisted motor. The SMH cites "inside sources" as saying the displacement option is the one likely to get the go-ahead, and suggests increased bore and stroke will see the engine grow to 2.5 liters, horsepower to about 250 - a 50-hp increase over the present car.
While that's apparently the betting man's solution for the long-awaited increase in gumption, what happens with the next generation could be more wide open than we suspected. According to the report, Tada "hinted that [a successor] could be a radically different car, potentially dropping the boxer engine altogether." He said once they've sorted out the concept for the second generation car, then they'll sort out an engine. That's where a turbo option could come to market, perhaps the turbocharged four-cylinder Toyota is developing for the Lexus NX crossover or a hybrid system that uses a capacitor.
