Straight-body, no rust, fair paint. Good-running old Toyota. Was my daily driver until I retired this year. I drove it 60 miles per day and it never let me down over a 10-year period.

The driver's seat back has a wear hole in the edge. Otherwise, the interior is in fair condition with the exception of the headliner which is sagging and cracking on the dash panel on right side where sun shines directly on it. There are some stains on the cloth seat inserts but overall not bad.

The car starts, runs, drives, stops as it should. Transmission and clutch work perfectly. A/C works. Tires are good, nearly new. Engine is all original and does have an oil leak. It is more a nuisance than anything.

Driving it at interstate speeds to work every day it would leak a quart in a week. Driving in town and at more moderate speeds lessens the amount of leakage. It seems to be coming from the crankshaft seal. This is replaceable without engine removal. I just lived with it for 10 years rather than tinker with something that was working well otherwise.

In the photos, the engine has not been cleaned. You are looking at what you will get. There is a slight leak in the radiator header. Not enough to require adding coolant except maybe once in a few months.

The photos were taken yesterday and therefore represent the current state of the vehicle.

This is an old vehicle and I have been running 'antique' tags recently. This is a big savings in itself and is perfectly legal if you own more than one vehicle that is accessed and licensed.

Being an old vehicle with high miles, there is no guarantee. But....it IS a Toyota. My brother's Toyota truck is still running with over 300,0000 miles on it.

These old cars are fairly hard to find....especially in fair condition. Even if you had to work on the engine, it is a good investment. I wouldn't even consider selling if I wasn't retired and didn't have several other vehicles.

Please ask questions if the condition wasn't described sufficiently, etc.

NOTE: Does not have power windows as in description box...couldn't figure out how to keep the automatic robot from putting that in there!

Toyota wants half its vehicles in Japan to be hybrids

Fri, Mar 27 2015

The Toyota Mirai hydrogen fuel cell vehicle could signal the future of motoring with a somewhat accessible price and cutting-edge green technology, but there's no guarantee for the model actually spearheading a revolution in the marketplace. In the meantime, the Japanese brand is continuing to focus on its hybrid powertrains and actually plans to build even more of them. As soon as next year, half of Toyota's sales in Japan could be electrically assisted. According to the Nikkei Asian Review, Toyota is pushing to sell 760,000 hybrids in Japan in 2016, compared to 684,000 last year. That figure would account for half of the company's sales in that country, and the company plans to increase overall production of its gas-electric models. The automaker could build 1.32 million of them next year, which would be about 30 percent more than in 2014. There's actually a financial incentive for Toyota to try this green strategy. Japan's rules for tax breaks on efficient models are about to get more stringent. According to the Nikkei Asian Review, only about half of all new models are expected to meet the guidelines for the incentives, compared to over 80 percent now, and the change could cost buyers as much as 100,000 yen ($840) more. With the impending debut of the next-gen Prius and heightened hybrid production, Toyota can position itself as an attractive choice to customers.

How Toyota's neighbor delayed 23,000 of its deliveries

Thu, 17 Jul 2014

Don't you just hate when your neighbors' mess becomes your problem? Toyota certainly has good reason to be upset, after an dirty mishap at a steel mill delayed thousands of vehicle exports from its nearby port in Nagoya, Japan, (pictured above) by as much as a month.
The messy situation occurred on June 22 when the mill near the port lost power and had to burn off an excess buildup of coke oven gas - which isn't exactly a situation friendly to living beings or the environment. According to Automotive News, it caused a massive amount of smoke to emit from the plant that fell as soot and tar on about 23,000 vehicles that were waiting to be shipped out. Getting the models properly cleaned off has been quite a task. A team of 5,000 workers were at the port until this week getting them gleaming again.
Potential Toyota buyers in North America have no need to fret about getting a sullied car, though. A Toyota spokesperson told Automotive News that none of the vehicles were bound for this continent. The automaker is reportedly considering asking the mill's owners for reimbursement for the cost of the weeks of cleanup. Paying for the mistake is, after all, the neighborly thing to do.

Toyota highlights JDM Mark X with special Yellow Label edition

Fri, 05 Sep 2014

Never heard of the Toyota Mark X? That's because the Japanese automaker only sells it in its home market (and in China as the Reiz). It's a rear-drive (or all-wheel-drive) sports sedan about the size of a Lexus IS, whose existence is probably why Toyota will never bring the Mark X to North America. The current model has been on the market since 2009, but Toyota is rolling out a series of updates - including the new Yellow Label model pictured here.
Available on the 250G, 250G Four and 250G S trim levels, the Yellow Label gets a special shade of Awaken Yellow paint (though it can be had in black, white or silver as well), with an interior decked out in either yellow or black. It also gets piano lacquer trim, yellow stitching, pink gold accents, special tread plates and other interior equipment upgrades, as well as a unique set of alloys. All of which makes the Toyota Mark X Yellow Label perfect for recreating scenes from Kill Bill without the need to squeeze into yellow leathers. (In fact we wouldn't be surprised to see Toyota doing just that for a promo clip.)
Power comes from a 2.5-liter V6 (and not the larger 3.5 available on the 350S model) channeled through a six-speed automatic to either the rear wheels or all four. Pricing ranges between 2.8 and 3.1 million yen (~$26-30k), representing a premium of about 106k yen ($1k) over non-yellow models. Toyota operates four distinct dealer networks in Japan, and the Mark X is sold through Toyopet stores.
