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.

Toyota says president, chairman of scandal-hit Daihatsu unit to step down
Tue, Feb 13 2024TOKYO — Toyota Motor Corp said on Tuesday both the president and chairman of Daihatsu Motor will step down almost a year after the small-car unit said it had rigged collision safety-tests. The departures are among the most drastic changes Daihatsu has made so far, as Toyota seeks to return the brand to its roots as one of Japan's most iconic compact car makers. Toyota faces a potential hit to its reputation from the safety certification lapses at Daihatsu, as well as separate governance issues at truck maker Hino Motors and affiliate Toyota Industries. The scandals at the three companies triggered a rare apology of Toyota Chairman Akio Toyoda last month. In a statement, the world's top-selling automaker said its chief executive officer for the Latin America and Caribbean region, Masahiro Inoue, will replace Soichiro Okudaira as Daihatsu's president effective March 1. Daihatsu's chairman, Sunao Matsubayashi, will also step down and will not be replaced, Toyota added. The outgoing Okudaira had worked at Toyota for nearly four decades before becoming president of Daihatsu in 2017, a year after it became a wholly owned Toyota subsidiary. Toyota Chief Executive Koji Sato told reporters, however, that the organizational change at Daihatsu was not carried out as a punishment for the outgoing executives. In volume terms, Daihatsu accounted for 7% of Toyota's total group sales of 11.2 million vehicles in 2023, including those of the luxury Lexus brand and Hino Motors. Given the misconduct over the safety test certification applications, Daihatsu also will be removed from a commercial vehicle partnership known as the Commercial Japan Partnership Technologies (CJPT), the automaker said in a separate statement. The partnership was established in April 2021 by Toyota, Hino and Isuzu Motors to facilitate technology development for commercial vehicles. Suzuki Motor and Daihatsu joined in July the same year. Daihatsu's 10% equity stake in the partnership will be transferred to Toyota, the statement said.

Toyota recalls 209,000 FJ Cruisers over seatbelt issue
Sat, 16 Mar 2013Toyota has announced that it will be issuing a substantial recall of the FJ Cruiser for a problem that could cause the front seatbelt retractors to separate from the vehicle body. This recall will apply to all FJ Cruisers - from 2007 through 2013 - totaling around 209,000 units.
The problem stems from the FJ Cruiser's pillarless door opening design that has the front-occupant seatbelts attached to the rear doors. Toyota says that when the rear doors are "repeatedly and forcefully closed," the retractor could completely separate from the door frame.
While there is no information about this recall from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration yet, Toyota says that there have been no accidents or injuries associated with this issue. No specific fix or recall date are given, but the official press release is posted below.
Toyota recalling 10k vehicles to fix wiper switches
Fri, 11 Oct 2013Toyota has announced a voluntary recall covering approximately 10,000 cars in the United States. Affected models include the 2013-14 Camry and Camry Hybrid, 2013-14 Avalon and Avalon Hybrid, and the brand new 2014 Corolla.
The problem, as Toyota explains it, is that, "During manufacture of the wiper switch assembly in the involved vehicles, certain contacts on the switch terminal could have been manufactured incorrectly." This could lead to a short in the circuit when the wiper switch is moved between "off" and "mist," and thus, cause the windshield wipers to stop working. Not good.
Toyota will contact owners via first class mail, and the vehicles can be repaired at dealerships, free of charge. Have a look below for the automaker's official statement.
