Here's your chance to own an adult driven, unmolested and pampered Supra; that is, it has not been put to the pavement with aftermarket performance accessories.  I believe this to be a 3-owner car. The 2nd owner, a fellow professional chemical engineer, purchased the car in 1997 and sold it to me in 2003 and I have owned it ever since. This cars' purpose was to be a get-away weekend cruiser for me and my wife which is why I bought a N/A (naturally aspirated) model rather than the pricey turbo model.

The car is factory original; all I added was an OEM spoiler from a factory supra, aftermarket wheels and 1" lowered front springs.  I reupholstered the front seats approximately 8 yrs ago which are in 10 of 10 condition as we speak.  The rear seat and the rest of the interior is factory original and is in excellent condition.  The front license plate holes have never been drilled which is a plus.  In the last month I had the car professionally mobile detailed: clay bar, machine buffed, hand wax, shampooed carpet, leather conditioner, engine bay, etc etc.  AC blows cold and replaced AC clutch approx 1,500 miles ago. Front windshield is chip and crack free.  It sits on NS Racing wheels with 8.5" fronts and 9.5" rears with brand new MAXXIS tires with less than 200 miles.  I purchased the car with 131,492 miles June 30, 2003 and exactly 11 years later it reads 135,532.  However, the odometer has exceeded its mechanical limits and I have noticed it works sporadically.  A mechanic ran the codes resulting in a  "speed sensor" and EGR valve notification.  I have replaced the EGR valve and have spent ZERO seconds researching the speed sensor and how to fix it as I'm not that concerned about it.  In all honesty the car has been driven approximately 6,000 miles since purchased in 2003 with only 6-700 miles of that coming in the last 5 years.  It has been garage kept and covered most of the time I've owned it.  I recently bled the entire brake system to correct a spongy pedal (due to air in the system from sitting) and now works like new.  It has all the original VIN tag stickers on all the body panels.  Radiator just flushed and new coolant added.  Differential oil was replaced a few years back.  Good news: NO white exhaust smoke on start up (white exhaust smoke is common for Supras indicating worn valve stem o-rings).  

Needs:  The antenna broke when left up at a car wash.  I have another complete OEM antenna and motor that will be included in the purchase for installation.  The rear hatch struts have lost their compression so the hatch will not stay up unless held.  The front speaker foam surround has dry rotted.  Paint is flaking in small area around front hood emblem and under left headlight.  One small rust spot above right rear tire where window rubber meets the hatchback glass surround.  Car is pretty much dent and door ding free.

I just completed a home construction expansion and this is my ticket to help paying myself back.  I guarantee the car description to be exactly as stated above listing all positives and negatives of which I am aware. This car also qualifies as a Classic car through Hagerty which my insurance only runs couple hundred year as long as not a primary driven vehicle.  I will store the car at no charge to allow buyer to arrange for pickup if paid in full.  Title is in my name free and clear.  Anything I missed or more questions don't hesitate to contact me...281-865-2262. -James

Unintended acceleration settlement hits Toyota's Q4 bottom line

Fri, 09 May 2014

Depending on how you want to look at things, the US Attorney's Office $1.2-billion dollar settlement with Toyota in March over its unintended acceleration recall was either a big blow to the company or completely inconsequential. From January to March, net income fell five percent to 297 billion yen ($2.89 billion), compared to 313.9 billion yen ($3.05 billion) a year ago. However, the automaker still posted record full-year profits worldwide.
Operating profit also fell in the US by 9 percent to $498.1 million for the quarter, but sales were up by 6 percent to 581,261 vehicles. According to Automotive News, global revenue was still up from January to March by about 13 percent and vehicle sales were up 6 percent to 2.58 million units.
However, the payment to the feds did little to hold the company back last year. For the fiscal year ending March 31, 2014, Toyota had net income of 1.82 trillion yen ($17.7 billion), compared to 962.1 billion yen ($9.5 billion) in the last fiscal year. Total vehicle sales were also up.

MotorWeek proves '90s were awesome with Supra, Stealth, RX-7, Corvette, 968, 300ZX comparo

Thu, 24 Jul 2014

Oh, the heady days of 1993, back when the Clinton Presidency was just getting underway, and it seemed like every hot new rock band was coming out of Seattle. Sports cars in the US had finally shaken off the shackles that slowed them during the '70s and '80s, and you could buy any number of legitimately quick vehicles again. MotorWeek recently went digging into its archives to find this six-model test from 1993 showing off some of the best semi-affordable performance coupes that money could buy at the time, and it's priceless.
Featuring the 1994 model year Toyota Supra in twin-turbo guise and MY 1993 versions of the Porsche 968, Nissan 300ZX TT, Mazda RX-7, Dodge Stealth R/T Turbo and Chevrolet Corvette LT-1, MotorWeek definitely covered all of the bases. One thing that might surprise younger readers is these cars' performance. The video only provides 0-60 acceleration times, but several of these vehicles would still be considered pretty potent today - over 20 years since going on sale. The Supra is especially impressive, hitting 60 miles per hour in just 5 seconds. Even today, that's nothing to sneeze at.
Given their performance potential and still-attractive looks, it's amazing that some of these coupes are old enough to drink now. The progress of interior design and safety equipment in the intervening years is pretty shocking, though. In most of these models, having two airbags is touted as a big deal. Scroll down to watch a Throwback Thursday blast from the past about some of the '90s best sports cars.

Airbag recall widens to include BMW, Chrysler, Ford and Toyota

Mon, 23 Jun 2014

The recall of faulty airbag inflators supplied by Takata has exploded today to grow to seven automakers. In most cases, only models in certain high-humidity regions were affected because the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration found in its investigation that moisture played a roll in determining whether there would be a problem. However, some companies opted for national campaigns. The exact number of affected models for these campaigns isn't yet known at this time.
BMW is recalling an undisclosed number of 325i, 325Xi, 330i and 330Xi models from the 2001 through 2005 model years and the 2001-2006 model year versions of the 325Ci and 330Ci for the driver side and passenger side inflators. Only vehicles currently registered in Florida, Puerto Rico, Hawaii and the US Virgin Islands are covered under this recall.
Neither Chrysler's filing with NHTSA nor its press release list the specific models affected, but a company spokesperson told Autoblog that at this time it only covers the driver and passenger side inflators for the 2006 Dodge Charger in Florida, Puerto Rico, Hawaii and the US Virgin Islands
