Condition: UsedA vehicle is considered used if it has been registered and issued a title. Used vehicles have had at least one previous owner. The condition of the exterior, interior and engine can vary depending on the vehicle's history. See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections.Seller Notes:"Just putting the negatives out there: Being a 13 year old car, there are exterior nicks, but nothing substantial. The pictures will show flaws to the best of my photographic abilities. The previous owner ran into something that pushed about a 6in diameter dent in the lip of the hood just above the bumper on the passenger side. I pulled it out some, and it's not especially noticeable. Depending on the buyer's preference, I may get a mobile body shop to repair it before delivery, up to the buyer, and I will split that cost. The top on the driver's side, has a tear about 3 in x 3 in. I sealed it from the inside, and will sew on a black Toyota cloth patch on the outside for esthetics (not the one in the picture. Will be one that covers the entire area. The interior has a couple of half inch in diameter cigarette holes on the seats from PO, not all that noticeable, but there. Otherwise the interior is in very good condition (see pics). See description below for the good stuff!"

This is a 2000 Toyota MR2 Spyder in overall very good condition.  It is in excellent condition mechanically.  See the flaws listed in the Condition Description above. 

The Good Stuff is it had an engine replacement about 12,000 miles ago (see invoice copy in pics.  I will send a better copy to the winning bidder) (The mechanics felt the cause was negligence by the previous owners, but who knows).  There are no leaks, AC is great, glass defrosted rear window, power locks, windows and mirrors, CD player (single). It runs great, no clutch issues.  I change the oil and other fluids myself.  I really do like this car, but I have it and a 2001 Jeep Wrangler.  I need to get a practical vehicle. 

The MR2 has very limited storage space.  If you aren't familiar with the vehicle, check out www.spyderchat.com to learn everything you want to know.  I won't go into all the details about it's handling ability, fuel economy, etc.  That info is readily available on the link I provided and a lot of other places on the net.  It is a LOT of fun to drive!  The wheels are after market, old and need refinishing.  I bought them off Craigslist on the cheap just to have something because the ones that were there when I got the car just had to go.  They are 17s with 205s on the front and 225s on the rear.  The overall paint polishes up pretty well, but a 13 year old car has paint dings.  Buy with confidence.  I describe things accurately, and there are no surprises.

A $500.00 non-refundable deposit is due at the auction's end (within 48 hours).  The remainder is to be paid by cash, certified check drawn on US bank or bank to bank wire transfer within 7 days of auction's end.  I will release the clear title immediately for cash, or mail the title to you when the certified check clears or wire transfer has completed.

NOTE:  The engine replacement invoice shows only the labor cost associated with the replacement ($1,430.33), as an aftermarket warranty company provided the motor (LKQ remanufactured...this was quite a battle between the garage and the warranty company since they wanted to just send a used replacement, and the garage fought for a remanufactured and won.  Great garage! The list price of the engine on the warranty co.'s paperwork was just over $2,700.00, but they paid for that I'm happy to say.

Proof that the Maserati-powered Lazareth LM847 quad actually works

Sun, Sep 11 2016

The craziest thing about the Lazareth LM847 isn't the 4.7-liter V8 engine sourced from Maserati. It's not the four-wheeled motorcycle design. It's not even the fact that its axles are hinged to allow the machine to lean into corners. No, the craziest thing is that the LM847 actually works. See for yourself in the video up above. Granted, the rider isn't pushing the LM847 very hard. In fact, he may as well be riding a scooter. It's got 470 horsepower and 457 pound-feet of torque, which means it really should be quite fast in a straight line. But considering the 880-pound weight, awkward-looking riding position, single-speed transmission, and the massive amount of torque wrenching the bike to its side when the engine is revved, we don't blame the rider for taking it easy.

Alfa Romeo will gain a Jeep Compass-based SUV

Fri, Nov 30 2018

It was reported earlier this week that FCA would invest into its Italian factories to ramp up production at currently underutilized locations. Those plans have now been clarified with official information from FCA, as reported by Automotive News. The entire investment is worth $5.7 billion. First of all, Alfa Romeo will gain a new compact SUV based on the Jeep Compass architecture. The still-unnamed model will be available as a plug-in hybrid, and it will be built in Pomigliano, Italy. No U.S. availability has yet been announced, but it would not be odd to see the Compass-based model sold below the Stelvio in the States. The last time Alfa Romeo had anything similar in its model portfolio was when it offered Crosswagon-badged four-wheel-drive versions of the 156 and 159 wagons. As for the Jeep Compass itself, it will begin to be built at the Melfi plant in Italy. The rumored small "baby" Jeep slotting under the Renegade has not yet been officially mentioned. Fiat will introduce a battery electric 500, built in Turin, and the Pomigliano plant that will make the compact Alfa Romeo SUV will also be used to build a mild hybrid version of the Panda city car. The 500X will gain a PHEV variant. The Stelvio platform will also spawn a corresponding SUV for Maserati, and FCA also mentioned Maserati will introduce a new, unnamed model it will make in Modena. Automotive News quotes Italian press as saying this will be the Alfieri coupe and convertible, also offered as battery electric versions. Related Video:
