1993 Camry 105k Miles Runs Superbly Power Windows Locks & Sun Roof on 2040-cars
Red Bank, New Jersey, United States
|
Selling my lovely granny owned (from 0 - 98,000 miles) 93 Toyota Camry, I bought her for likely the same reason you are here now, she's strong reliable and fuel economical,
Some things I'd never expected were how responsive she is, how smooth the ride is, smart cruise control, that she has an Overdrive mode, and a sports mode, and finally how incredibly easy to work on she was. My partner (a qualified mechanic) has replaced the old battery with a brand new one, replaced the old and fraying alternator belt with a crisp brand new one, replaced the old and weary air filter with a brand new one, replaced the down pipes and exhaust system with completely new parts front to back, The oil and filter have been swapped out for fresh and new. Yes she may have 105,500 miles on the clock and not be the prettiest but anyone who knows their cars will know this is nowhere near half the lifetime expectancy of a 93 Camry and she has AT LEAST another 10 years to go, Toyota are renowned for being the duracell bunny of the car world and with the least love and attention possible they last forever, my parents still have the same Toyota Hilux they've had for more than 25-30 years and it still hasn't missed a beat. The love and attention that this lovely car has received from us will see her onwards for at least another 50,000 miles without any consideration (oil change tire check etc) and way beyond, but we would like her to go to a loving home, she never failed us whatever we asked of her and served us a fantastic few months, she doesn't need love and attention but if you can provide it we'd like you to have her. For anyone wondering why we are selling a car we have grown so attached to it is very simple, we are getting hitched and moving to Europe to live in 3 countries and simply can't take her with us, and believe me we considered it, but my partner already has a car there waiting for us, so we wish you happy bidding and good luck, she's a wonderful car and we will both miss her. On Jul-31-14 at 13:12:55 PDT, seller added the following information: In response to questions from bidders and interested bidders Yes Everything works Perfectly, Brakes = Excellent (Strong, no glitching, no bumping, no grinding etc) A/C = Excellent (fast to kick in and no patchiness or funny smells) Fender and door = Because some idiot let his cows out right next to the car when it was parked at a friends we were visiting in the country. Brake discs (rotors) = Excellent (straight, clean, still dense.) Suspension = Excellent (Firm, clean, and responsive on all 4 mounts) Electrics = Excellent (No glitching, no buzzing, no bonkers dials, no engine fault lights on) Central locking and both the master and mechanic's keys included. |

2013 Toyota RAV4 earns 'poor' rating in IIHS small overlap crash test [w/video]
Thu, 11 Jul 2013When the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety tested a batch of SUVs in its small overlap frontal crash test earlier this year, it held off on putting the Toyota RAV4 in the blender because the new, 2013 model was due to arrive shortly after the test. The new crossover might be better than it was before, but it could still only manage a rating of "Poor" in the test that has been a bugbear for a number of manufacturers.
Among other issues, the IIHS noted that the steering column moved seven inches to the right causing the crash test dummy to practically miss the airbag, the dummy's left foot was trapped in deformed sheetmetal and the dummy's head hit the instrument panel.
The 2013 RAV4 earned the Top Safety Pick rating by scoring well in the Institute's four other tests. A good score in this particular test would have earned it the Top Safety Pick+ rating that is so far only claimed by the 2014 Subaru Forester and 2013 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport in the SUV category. There's a press release below with more details and a video of the test.
Toyota reports huge quarterly profit increase, raises forecast for the year
Sun, 04 Aug 2013Toyota isn't just the world's largest automaker - so far its the biggest winner for quarterly profits. With an enormous $5.5 billion take during Q2, Toyota took advantage of the weak Japanese yen and strong US demand to record a 94-percent improvement in profit over the same period from last year. So far, Toyota brought in larger profits than Ford and General Motors combined.
Toyota is showing no signs of slowing down either, as it has bumped up its forecast for full-year global production, going from 9.94 million to 10.12 million vehicles, on the back of a 13-percent drop in the buying power of the Japanese yen versus the US dollar. That strong exchange rate is largely responsible for Toyota's big jump in profits, although it also managed to shift 1.3 million vehicles in the US market this year. Strong Camry sales have also helped. But while Toyota is raking in the cash, it actually saw a small drop in market share, down 0.1 percent to 14.3 percent of the US market.
As is the case with most automakers, Toyota seems flummoxed by Europe, where it recorded less than one percent of its revenue. Still, as Automotive News points out, Toyota only maintains a 4.5-percent market share in Europe and is far less dependent on the continent than other manufacturers. Toyota also struggled at home, much like Honda. With 525,777 units sold, JDM sales were down almost 51,000 units, although Toyota still saw its operating profit jump from $3.5 billion to $4.6 billion.
Toyota nearing $1B settlement of unintended acceleration criminal probe
Sun, 09 Feb 2014According to those all-too-nebulous "people familiar with the matter," Toyota is close to a settlement with the US federal government to end a criminal probe over its long-running unintended acceleration fiasco. Though Toyota has never admitted guilt, the deal could reportedly crest a billion dollars and would likely include a criminal deferred prosecution agreement, and while we're not legal experts, The Wall Street Journal explains that such a deal would "[force Toyota] to accept responsibility while avoiding the potentially crippling consequences of federal criminal convictions."
The report from WSJ also suggests that Toyota is facing charges that it "made false or incomplete disclosures" to various government agencies regarding possible defects to its cars. Such charges may include mail and wire fraud violations. Toyota has already paid out fines totaling $66.2 million to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration because it failed to report safety defects in a timely manner.
This deal with the federal government is not related to the billion-dollar class-action settlement reached with Toyota owners over falling vehicle values, and it's also different from the roughly 400 lawsuits still in courts alleging personal injury of wrongful death due to cases of unintended acceleration. In other words, don't expect to hear the end of such courtroom verdicts and settlements anytime soon...
