1998 Toyota Celica Gt Convertible 2-door 2.2l on 2040-cars
Thousand Oaks, California, United States
Up for sale is my 1998 Toyota Celica GT Convertible, I'm listing it one more time before it goes to the Junk Yard, I have to make room in my garage so If you see the value in it please take advantage of getting a great deal on this great car.
Recently my car was rear Ended and the labor cost was going to exceed the value of the car so I'm not able to afford to have the back repaired. It does not have a salvage title, but it is a "Revival Junk", This is what the DMV has it as right now. Basically it can be repaired if someone is willing to put the time into fixing it or want's to use it for parts or to part it out. It will be sold as a junk car and if you end up repairing the damage then you can go to the dmv and go through the steps of trying to get it inspected etc.. This car is fully running and in great shape besides the damage from the accident in the back. Under the hood the engine etc are all in amazing condition. The Car drives like a dream and Was taken such good care of. The car has been garage kept and well maintained. So if you are interested in it for parts or to repair or have any questions please email me before purchasing. If you are rebuilding a celica this is a great parts car, or if you buy it you can part it out and make more money off of it then i'm asking. I have seen used celica gt motors sell for 1,500+ dollars just in itself not including everything else under the hood along with exterior and interior parts and accessories so I'm going to have to take a loss on it because I don't have the ability myself to drop the engine out, the converter and everything else under the hood, because if I could i would make way more money doing that then selling it out right to someone, but I need it out of my garage so I can move on and put my new car in. The windows & glass are all original and in excellent shape, everything inside is original oem parts. I have been checking around and just finding any parts on a 1998 celica gt are so hard to find in great condition that the people whom are selling the doors and glass and fabric to the roof etc are making a killing on selling the parts. I know just the parts alone for the convertible top are super expensive if bought new, I know because I had to have new hydrolics put in when I first bought the car so the top would lay back flat and wow I spent 2500.00 just to get that fixed for parts and labor. If you buy parts new from toyota if they still have them you pay an arm and a leg for them so here is a chance to get these parts for a really great deal and fix up your own celica. I had an offer for 1850.00 just for the engine alone but as I can't part it out myself I had to pass. Just The back heated glass window alone people are charging 300.00+ dollars used. If you are considering parting it out the switches inside are all working great, you have all the interior and exterior parts from the mechanical parts to the doors, the fenders, front bumper, windows, seats, steering wheels, mirrors, floor matts shifter, alarm, switches, convertible top fabric to all the parts that make it function to sell, along with headlights, engine, wheels, tires are all in excellent shape, I could go on forever. So if anyone is seriously considering on fixing it up, using it for parts to fix up their current celica, or making great money Parting it out from the interior to the exterior and everything under the hood this is a great car to do so with. 1998 Toyota Celica GT Convertible Black Milage: 99,242 Automatic Convertible AC/Heat CD/Tape/Radio Player Viper Alarm 2.2L 135 hp I4 engine FWD Driver and Passenger Airbags Auto Locks Power Windows Window Tinting Alloy Wheels original OEM Toyota Black Front Bra YOU MUST ARRANGE AND PAY FOR YOUR OWN SHIPPING/HAULING OFF OF THE VEHICLE.

Performance cars overpower the Detroit Auto Show
Tue, Jan 13 2015At precisely the stroke of noon on Monday, the 2016 Acura NSX rolled on stage at the Detroit Auto Show amid plumes of smoke and dancing lights. The sounds of the powerful engine revving soared to the rafters. It was the second coming of Acura's iconic sports car, and the reveal had all of the expected trappings. Afterwards, champagne corks popped and the bubbly flowed. It was noon in Detroit, but for the green-car movement, it seemed like the clock had struck midnight. That's an exaggeration, but performance was the overwhelming theme of North America's most important show. Ford – which has helped lead the way in smaller displacement engines and early adoption of hybrid powertrains – had more than 1,500 horsepower on stage one point after it revealed the GT concept, the new F-150 Raptor and the Shelby Mustang GT350R. The NSX is technically a hybrid (it has three electric motors), but with 550-plus hp, there's no doubt this Acura was bred on the track. The theme continued throughout the show at nearly every stand. Alfa Romeo showed off the 4C Spider, which is the open-air version of a car that purports to be the spiritual successor of the high-performance 33 Stradale from 1967. On Tuesday, Cadillac is scheduled to reveal the 640-hp CTS-V with the V8 transplanted from the Corvette Z06, and the Lexus was expected to roll out its own V8-powered beast, the 467-hp GS F. For enthusiasts – especially enthusiasts with money – these are halcyon days. But make no mistake, all of this power has a purpose. Ford product chief Raj Nair said the Blue Oval uses high performance cars to develop technologies, like aerodynamics and materials, which are then shared across its lineup. "It's another proof point about how serious we are in developing innovation through performance," he said. Ford, which is rolling out at least 12 performance cars by 2020, said the sporty cars attract younger and more influential buyers to its fold, which can help burnish its image beyond adding sales volume. Toyota is taking a similar approach, senior vice president Bob Carter said, noting the Lexus RC coupe draws people into showrooms and gets them excited about the brand, even if they don't end up buying one. "They provide an aspiration and a halo that provides the attention that gets you noticed in a cluttered market," he said.
Race Recap: 2014 24 Hours of Le Mans defines 'endurance'
Mon, 16 Jun 2014Commenting on the rush of events that rocked beginning and end of the 24 Hours of Le Mans, Paul Truswell of Radio Le Mans said "the race is about the ability to endure, not just the ability of drivers to do what they do for a long time." The entire race machine, all the way down to the pit boards and radios, has to survive the stress and abuse of the entire day. This was the race to prove those words.
There were two Toyotas, two Porsches and three Audis, five of the seven led the race at some point, six of the seven ran in the top three. Toyota will be hugely disappointed that it didn't win when its car and drivers were so, so strong, but they gave Audi the kind of scare we haven't seen since the best of Peugeot's days, and Toyota did a better job of it even in the loss. Porsche blew away everyone's expectations, falling 3.5 hours short of a fairy tale ending that would have made Disney cry.
But Le Mans doesn't really do fairy tales. Well, not that fairy tale. Audi's Twitter handle during the event was #welcomechallenges. As usual, Le Mans answered for the entire field.
Toyota again claims Corolla outsold Focus worldwide
Wed, 10 Apr 2013Toyota isn't convinced the Ford Focus was the best-selling nameplate globally last year. Bloomberg reports that for the second time in seven months, both Toyota and Ford are laying claim to the title. Ford cites R.L. Polk & Co. data that says the automaker moved some 1.02 million Focus models in 2012 compared to just 872,774 Toyota Corolla units. But Toyota says the actual figure is closer to 1.16 million Corolla models.
Last year, Ford said it took the sales crown through the fist half of 2012 based on information from IHS Automotive, but Toyota pointed out those numbers left out models like the Corolla-based Matrix and Auris, as well as the Corolla Fielder and Scion xB-based Corolla Rumion. Whether or not Toyota's belief that all these cars should be counted in the Corolla bucket is accurate or not is seemingly up for debate... as is the question of why it matters so much to both parties.
This time around, Ford is holding the line that the Focus is the "best-selling nameplate," with Erich Merkle, a US sales analyst with Ford saying the company's figure is, "a pure number that is verified by a third party." Toyota, meanwhile, has requested clarification from Polk.
