Up for bid is a silver 2000 Toyota Celica GT-S. The car runs good (no leaks at all) and the auto trans shifts smooth. The A/C blows ice cold. The car has good tires and new brakes front and back. has new oil seals and drive belt. Has a new radiator,timing chain and chain guides, new battery, new cam and crank sensors and all fluids are up to date on services(just put $1200 into the car not including my labor in the past month). Could use a new hood latch, sunroof motor and downstream 02 sensor (which is the cause of the check engine light). The exterior is a 7/10 and could use a new paint job. The interior is a 9/10, really clean for a 14 year old car. no cracks in the factory leather seats and no missing or broken interior plastic. The car was backed into by a truck with a ball hitch destroying the original bumper and I bought a new bumper cover from the 03-05 updated design. It does still need the lower valance for the bumper or you could just put a body kit on the car. also comes with 2 extra fenders as spares and rocker arm moldings as spares. Has 212k miles(but you wouldn't know it because it runs so well).

The reserve is well below kbb private sell value. Remember when bidding that this is a good safe reliable running car but it is 14 years old and does have high miles so do not expect this car to be perfect. That being said though, I wouldn't hesitate to jump in it and drive to California and back. Good luck bidding and please feel free to ask me any questions you may have. Thanks for looking at my auction.

Vehicle for sale locally also and seller reserves the right to end the auction pending local sell is met prior to action end date. Sold as is with no warranty implied.

Dutch Toyota dealer has plans for old Prius batteries as solar backup

Thu, May 1 2014

A Toyota dealer in the Netherlands is looking to the sky for power. The Louwman Hague Toyota dealership has put almost 1,000 solar panels on the roof, and there might be some Prius hybrid batteries involved. Our Dutch isn't as good as it could be and our questions to Toyota in the US haven't turned up any definitive answers, but there is some mention that these solar panels are will someday be feeding power into a bank of Toyota hybrid batteries. The 1,000 panels make up 1,600 square meters, about the size of 4.5 IMAX movie screens, and is the largest in the area. They generate around a quarter of a megawatt of energy [as our readers point out, this is what the translation says, but it doesn't make sense, so we think it might mean a quarter MW of power a day], which is enough to power 80 homes. The excess electricity will go into the battery packs that have (possibly) already been used in a Prius or another of the company's hybrid. There are many examples of automotive batteries being tested as stationary back-up power sources, and maybe this Dutch solution can be used as a guide when Toyota sets up its new US headquarters in sunny Texas.

Toyota mini doc chronicles Tundra towing Space Shuttle Endeavor

Thu, 21 Mar 2013

Toyota has worked up a quick video detailing the brand's involvement in the transportation of the Space Shuttle Endeavour last year. As you may recollect, the California Science Center ran into a hitch when it came to moving Endeavour from LAX to its new home. While most of the route would be covered by a robotically controlled transporter, one portion of the route directed the shuttle over an interstate. Unfortunately, the bridge across wasn't designed to stand up to the weight of the shuttle and its motorized sled.
The Science Center would have to remove Endeavour from its transporter and place it on a lighter, non-motorized sled. That's where longtime Science Center sponsor Toyota came in. As it turns out, the automaker had to prove to the California Science Center that a Tundra could actually tow the massive shuttle, so engineers put on a little demonstration with a stock truck pulling the equivalent weight over flat ground for the same distance. Once the Science Center was satisfied that the Tundra could pull it off, the move was green lit and the rest is history. Check out the short documentary below for yourself.

2014 Toyota FJ Cruiser Ultimate Edition

Thu, 10 Jul 2014

Introduced at the end of 2006, this is the last year for the Toyota FJ Cruiser, the reincarnated FJ40-series Land Cruiser that will shortly journey to Takama-ga-hara, the Plain of High Heaven. In its first model year, we drove it to SEMA and found it, shall we say, coarse. It bobbled on the freeway and droned in the cabin, its boxy interior providing four bounce-boards for unpleasant frequencies. Tall mirrors helped one work around the eclipse of vision aft of the B-pillars, but navigating traffic required forethought and technique. Its turning circle was measured in kilometers. For the first two years of its life, it needed premium gas. It may have been fun to look at, but we couldn't wait to get out of it.
That's not the case anymore, and now the FJ Cruiser is poised to join a long list of vehicles that got better and better, then got axed.
