Up for sale is my personal 2000 Toyota Celica GT with 61,874 original miles. This is one of the lowest mileage Celica's left on the planet (check the Vehicle history report). It was damaged due to a recent encounter with a Deer (no other car involved) and sustained heavy damage to the entire left side as seen in the photos. The engine starts right up, there are NO Check engine lights on, and the air bags did NOT deploy.

The interior is in mint condition, nice stereo, and all accessories appear to function properly. The car has an upgraded glass sunroof panel and is undamaged. Left rear A arm was bent in when car skidded into the curb and will need replaced along  with windshield , hatch glass and small left rear window. Drivers glass is OK. 

 I REALLY hate to let this one go, but I just don't have the resources to fix it. This car was a real pleasure to drive with the smooth fast responce of the engine with the 5 SPD, and always got great gas mileage 30+ and I was planning to keep it for a very long time. It is also a great looking car  (wish they still made them). Never gave me a single problem, oil was changed every 2000 miles. It's too nice to part out IMO so I am hoping a good body person can buy it and fix her up. Look at what other Celicas with high mileage are going for and the value here becomes obvious. Low mileage Engine alone is worth the opening bid. These cars are becoming highly collectible

I am available days to answer any questions you may have and can take additional pictures of specific items if you wish. My E-Bay feedback speaks for itself, and I will do everything possible to make this a great transaction for you.

This entire description is MY own opinion and is in NO WAY A WARRANTY of any kind. Car is being sold as a PARTS CAR and does not drive. It's your decision to fix or not. You are buying it AS IS WHERE IS and it will need to be flat bedded. I will do what I can to work with your transporter and try to help as much as possible to make things go smoothly.

A $300.00 deposit must be made within 24 hours of auctions end. Car MUST BE PICKED UP within 7 Days of end of auction unless prior arrangements have been made.

CAR IS ALSO FOR SALE LOCALLY and I reserve the right to end the auction at any time.

Toyota to recall 185k cars globally, including Yaris

Thu, 04 Jul 2013

Toyota has announced it is recalling a total of 185,000 vehicles worldwide for a power steering issue. Yaris and (overseas) Vitz models built between November 2010 and March 2012 could suffer a short circuit in their power steering control module if water gets inside. Should that happen, the power steering could fail, increasing effort when turning. The recall also includes the Verso-S and Ractis built from August 2010 to August 2011. The recall covers 130,000 vehicles in Japan and around 22,450 in Europe.
Only 74 units are being recalled in the United States.
Toyota says if the fault occurs, the vehicle will display the Electronic Power Steering warning light on the dash and a buzzer will sound. The automaker will alert owners by mail and dealers will replace the power steering control module free of charge. You can read the quick press release on the recall below for more information.

Toyota recalls slew of models for possible airbag calibration defect

Mon, 28 Jan 2013

Toyota is recalling sixteen models from the 2009 to 2013 model years over a potential issue with passenger seat airbag calibration. In spite of the large number of different Toyotas covered by the recall, just 3,235 units are included. These were vehicles installed with accessories like leather seat covers and headrest DVD systems by Southeast Toyota Distributors, and during the modifications the passenger seat occupant sensor system might not have been calibration tested. If the sensors aren't set up properly, the passenger airbag might not work as it should.
Affected models include: Avalon, Camry, Camry Hybrid, Corolla, 4Runner, FJ Cruiser, Highlander, Highlander Hybrid, Prius, Prius V, Rav4, Sequoia, Sienna, Tacoma, Tundra and Venza. Scroll down for the relevant model years for each.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration indicates that the recall will begin this month. Southeast Toyota will inform owners, at which time they can take their Toyotas to dealers for testing and repair. The complete bulletin from the NHTSA with more information is below.

Toyota asking NHTSA for fuel cell car safety exemption regarding electric shocks

Mon, 30 Jun 2014

Toyota is requesting an exemption from federal safety regulations that govern electric cars as it prepares to launch a small-scale hydrogen fuel-cell vehicle fleet.
The Japanese automaker is targeting Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 305, which covers the packaging of high-voltage parts in electric cars. According to Uncle Sam, these systems need to be isolated so that passengers and first responders aren't electrocuted in the event of a crash. That seems pretty smart, but it's become a problem for Toyota's upcoming production fuel cell vehicle, as the mechanism that prevents electric shocks in low-speed crashes will apparently simply keep Toyota's car from even functioning.
Instead of the federally approved system, Bloomberg reports that Toyota plans to insulate the high-voltage wires and cables in the car, along with shielding electrical components like the fuel cells, electric motor and batteries with (presumably non-conductive) metal barriers.
