Mr2 Turbo With T-tops & Leather Interior on 2040-cars
Chevy Chase, Maryland, United States
|
The nice weather is here and you are tired of driving your boring, mundane car... get a fun, fast, open-top summer toy as well as a collectible classic! Or give this as one heck of an awesome graduation gift!
I'm selling one of my MR2s; it is metallic green with t-tops, leather interior, good A/C, premium wheels, custom exhaust, adjustable shocks, uprated springs, J-spec engine freshly rebuilt with all new bearings and crank, JDM ct-26b ceramic bearing turbo (boosts to 12psi), Spearco intercooler, HKS Turbo timer, digital boost gauge, clear corners, HID headlights, cross-drilled and slotted rotors and more. Pictures tell the story. The car is very nice, clean and fast, t-tops do not leak, but it is not flawless, it is a 21 year old car. On the other hand, flawless versions like this one sell for $14K (do a search to confirm), so the asking reflects reality. Please bear in mind, while there are minor paint chips and the like, and 5th gear is worn, this car is the most desirable version: post-93 (suspension and handling improvements from earlier versions), Turbo (there is no comparison between turbo and non-turbo, 'nuff said), T-tops (oddly, there seems to be a recent glut of the hardtop coupes available; but you miss out on all the sunlight streaming in, wind in your hair action!) and has the leather interior (MUCH nicer than cloth). All of these add significantly to the price and desirability of this vehicle. You will still find some cars offered on the cheap, but they are invariably tired, worn-out, poorly running cars, frequently butchered beyond belief; if that is what you want to buy, fine, but this isn't that! This car is well sorted, looks great, and drives fast and smooth. Now, if you have not driven a turbo MR2, let me assure you that this is the most bang-for-your-buck sports car you can probably find on the planet! It is just so much fun to drive! Also, if you are a gear head, you can modify this car to your heart's content. There are plenty of 500HP+ MR2 builds out there, but I have no conceivable clue what you could want that kind of power to weight ratio for! As is, this car is fast and nimble enough for just about anything you could want to do on the streets. In addition, there is a huge online community of folks who know everything there is to know about these cars and how to do just about anything you could imagine to them. Great folks. OK, so as to try to avoid all the scammers out there: Serious buyers only. No tirekickers. Test drives only to those who have cash ready to go. Sold As Is and Where Is. No, I will not take PayPal. Cash or cashiers check only. No, I will not accept payment more than the amount of the car and "return" the overage. You must either pick the car up yourself or arrange your own transport. If you have some other sort of scam idea, DON'T waste my time. (Wow, I sound really bitter, but I have seen and heard too many...) |

Toyota announces Geneva plans including droptop FT-86 Open concept
Fri, 01 Feb 2013Automakers from around the globe are gearing up for the Geneva Motor Show next month, and Toyota is giving us a couple teasers of what will be in its display. In addition to what appears to be a single-seat concept called the i-Road (shown at right), Toyota will also give us our first look at a droptop Scion FR-S courtesy of the FT-86 Open Concept.
All we have to go on right now is this sketch shown above, but we do see that this car will retain its rear seats, which could be a potential advantage over one of its key rivals, the Mazda MX-5 Miata. Toyota says that this concept will be used to gauge public interest in such a convertible, but we've already heard that a Scion convertible is already planned to go on sale as soon as early next year. As far as Toyota's other concept, there also isn't much information about the i-Road except that it will be a zero-emissions vehicle and it will have seating for two passengers, which based on the drawing will have the driver sitting in front of the passenger.
Toyota will also show off the European version of the new RAV4 as well as its new Auris Touring Sports, which it refers to as a "medium-size estate." Scroll down for Toyota's tease of a press release.
Nissan, Toyota offering payment deferments to people affected by government shutdown
Tue, 15 Oct 2013Two weeks into the budget-related government shutdown and it sounds like some progress is finally being made, but that doesn't really help furloughed government employees pay their bills. To help out a little, Nissan and Toyota are joining Hyundai with offering payment deferments to current owners and lessees.
In a release, a Nissan spokesperson said the company is "sympathetic to any of our customers who find themselves in difficult financial circumstances - many times outside of their control."
Both Japanese automakers are allowing payment extensions of up to 90 days without penalties or fees. Unlike the Hyundai Assurance Plan, though, it doesn't seem like the Nissan or Toyota assistance will be extended to those who are still in the buying process. Scroll down for press releases from both companies about their respective payment deferment programs.
2014 Toyota Corolla details leaked
Thu, 09 May 2013Toyota will launch the 2014 Corolla later this year, and thanks to the ever-leaky internet, a couple of key details about the new sedan have been revealed. Car and Driver was able to uncover these bits of information thanks to someone at a Toyota dealer in Kansas who has seen the car, as well as its order guide, though the dealer's site has since removed its original posting.
We got our first glimpse at the next-generation Corolla's design at the 2013 Detroit Auto Show, where Toyota unveiled the Furia concept, pictured above. Yes, it looks all sporty and aggressive, but fear not, appliance shoppers, C/D says that the production car should have a couple of Furia bits mixed in with a huge helping of Camry-inspired styling.
The 2014 Corolla will reportedly continue to use a 1.8-liter four-cylinder engine, though the mill has been massaged a bit, adding Toyota's Valvematic continuously variable valve timing. A four-speed automatic (yep!) will be offered in the base model, though the manual transmission now has six gears, and higher trim levels can be had with a CVT. Both engine output and fuel economy numbers should improve slightly over the 2013 model. Currently, the Corolla produces 132 horsepower and 128 pound-feet of torque, and achieves 27/34 miles per gallon (city/highway) with the five-speed manual 'box.
