1985 Celica Convertible with extremely low 46,xxx miles.

There were only 4 to 5 thousand of these made ever; a handful in 1984 and the rest in 1985. I only know of one or two other with fewer miles. This is the first 'official' Celica convertible year and also the last year that Celicas had rear wheel drive.

I've had it for about 5 years and have driven it only during the summer, maybe 2,000 miles per year. It runs great and I've loved driving it - I'm just making room for a different vehicle. This is the second one of these I've owned; I really liked the first one but it was really beat up and couldn't pass up getting this one with its low miles.

When I bought it, it had just been restored to working order after many years of sitting and had been retired from the DMV records. It was given a paint job as part of that restoration.

Overall, it's in really nice shape:
- The upholstery is all intact. Rugs also. No cracks in the dash.
- No rust.
- A brand new top and headliner were professionally installed in 2012. The hydraulic system to raise and lower the top works fine.
- The radio is a 5 year old Kenwood with aux / usb in; I kept the original radio / tape desk as well.
- The 3 piece fiberglass parade boot is in nice shape. These are a bit more rare than the car itself.
- I have an extra set of seat belts for it. They were only made for this one year, so when I got the chance to get a backup set I jumped on it.
- Tires are maybe 4 years old but have only been driven on less that 10K miles.
- I put a new muffler and catalytic converter on it when I got it.

On the down side:
- It leaks some motor oil (it does not burn oil at all). My mechanic said just drive it that way. Seems like it's leaking less lately, maybe an old seal is reseating after that long sit? No other leaks.
- There's a couple of dings, none too bad.
- A/C doesn't work. I've never tried to fix it - it's a convertible.
- The mirrors could be painted. The ones that came on it looked good but didn't work mechanically, so I replaced them with working ones. I believe I still have them as well.
- Even with the new top on, it will leak some in moderate rain around the front corners. I've pretty much only driven it in nice weather.
- The automatic radio antenna raises to different levels each time the car is turned on.
- The paint job it last got was fine, but it could have used better prep in a few spots.

That's about it. It's a cool, classic, rare convertible that's lots of fun to drive.

Tue, Feb 27 2018

Getting a new car is an amazing experience. The fresh new scent, the barely touched interior, the double digit miles on your odometer, and... the depreciation once it leaves the car dealers lot? Maybe not that last one. To save you from the hurt of a quickly depreciating new car, we collected 8 of the fastest depreciating cars in America. And here's a surprise, one of them is a Toyota.

Toyota to start production of hydrogen vehicles in December

Sun, 08 Jun 2014

Toyota's hydrogen fuel cell vehicle will be in showrooms sooner than planned, the Japan Times reporting that production will commence in mid-December with the sedan following "by the end of this year." No reason was given for the new timeline; Toyota has been saying all along that we'd see it in 2015.
The company is said to be "considering" production volume of "dozens of... vehicles per month" at a "likely" price of eight million yen, which is $78,030 US. That is well in line with the numbers thrown around last year, when the target was somewhere between $50,000 and $100,000. Then late last year, during our first drive of the FCHV mule, we wrote that "the official quote... [is] that a price of 'less than 10 million yen is ideal.'"
That alleged $78K is a sizable sum to be one of the early adopters on the hydrogen fuel cell wagon train, but with things moving around so much - and with Toyota publicly citing hydrogen fuel cells as the future - there's plenty of reason to be cautious about that number.
