2007 Toyota Yaris Base Hatchback Lowered Tint Runs Great! on 2040-cars

For sale is my 2007 Toyota yaris, it has 67,xxx miles and is a great car if you are looking to save on gas (around 40mpg) and have fun doing it, then this car would be great for you!

I bought the yaris a couple years ago from floras auto sales down in Indiana. It had been in an accident and had a salvage title from hitting a deer. I replaced headlights, driver’s side fender and hood. The driver’s door had some damage and was repaired along with the rear door. The title will come reconditioned and 100% ready to insure and transfer the title into your name.

I had everything panted to match but several months ago the paint started to chip some off the front bumper. I tried contacting the place that did the painting and they had gone out of business, so I put a labra front car cover on the yaris and it looks great.

The check engine and Maint Reqd lights are both on, I’ve had both checked and it comes back to something with the AC in the car. I had it looked at by Lentz, a local auto shop and they serviced the AC and it works great and blows ice cold air but the light is still on. The Maint Reqd light, I think is because I’ve done all the oil changes and routine malignance on the car myself, using full synthetic fluids.

The inside of the car is good and has lots of use left in it, plenty of storage space.

Everything on the car works as it should, there is a 2 inch lowing TRD kit added, makes the car handle very nice. Also has a K&N cold air kit, aftermarket angel eye headlights. The tires are in great shape and have life left in them. It also has 5% limo tint. The car comes with a hitch that I just put on so I could move, I used a small uhall trailer and it worked great! I didn’t install the wiring for the hitch but its brand new in the box and comes along with the yaris.  

The transmission is a 5 speed manual and shifts as it should. Engine is also in great shape and runs very well with no known issues.

There are several scratches and little dents or imperfections around on the car, I did my best to take pictures of everything.

Toyota restructuring US operations, possibly moving to Texas

Sun, 27 Apr 2014

According 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."

Toyota GT86 engineer Tada recounts how sports car came to be

Wed, 13 Feb 2013

Because the Toyota GT86, Scion FR-S and Subaru BRZ coupes are now a reality, it's almost hard to imagine the struggle that had to happen within the large, conservative corporate structures at both automakers for the joint project to even get off of the ground.
Speaking to those struggles on Toyota UK's Toyota Blog, GT86 Chief Engineer Tetsuya Tada enlightens us with a recap of the sports car's earliest origins. For Tada, the first stages of the project must have seemed almost as dreamlike as the final product is to drive.
Said the Chief, "I had been working in the minivan department engineering new product, but a month after the meeting I was summoned. 'Forget about minivans,' they said, 'you are now working on the sports-car project.'"

DoJ fines Japanese parts firms $740M in massive automotive price-fixing scandal

Fri, 27 Sep 2013

Nine Japanese suppliers have pleaded guilty in US court over charges of price fixing in the automotive parts industry, resulting in the Department of Justice doling out a total of $740 million of fines, according to a report from Bloomberg. The scandal, which has resulted in General Motors, Ford, Toyota and Chrysler spending up to $5 billion on inflated parts and driving up prices on 25 million vehicles has sent the DoJ hustling into investigations. "The conduct this investigation uncovered involved more than a dozen separate conspiracies aimed at the U.S. economy," Attorney General Eric Holder (pictured above) said during yesterday's press conference.
As the investigation stands, the DoJ has issued $1.6 billion in fines against 20 companies and 21 individual executives, with 17 of the execs headed to prison. Deputy Assistant Attorney General Scott Hammond said, "The breadth of the conspiracies brought to light today are as egregious as they are pervasive. They involve more than a dozen separate conspiracies operating independently but all sharing in common that they targeted US automotive manufacturers."
Big-name suppliers indicted in the investigation include Mitsubishi Electric, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Hitachi Automotive and Mitsuba Corporation. A list of fines and other corporations named in the investigation is available at Bloomberg.
