1992 Toyota Corolla 4 dr Sedan, 76,877 original miles 1.6L 1587CC l4 GAS DOHC Naturally Aspirated front wheel drive.
I am the second owner. I bought this from the original owner with 62,789 in 11/2012. The car was hit while parked in my driveway by a car that lost control. He saw the car last minute and swerved to avoid but grazed the side causing the front passenger side fender and some scratches in the paint down the right side (see photos). The fender can be bought for between $75 and $100 in stock color and less for primed aftermarket. I already looked it up and found the part. There was no frame damage at all and did not affect drive ability at all.
The drivers insurance estimated to fix the fender and trim piece and paint to be too high compared to book value so they declared it a total loss. The body shop told me there was no frame damage at all and there was no reason not to keep it and repair cosmetics if I decided to based upon the condition of the car.
He said I could get all the parts to fix it myself for $300-400. I kept it and have been driving it since without any issues at all.
I was going to buy the fender and repair it before selling it but I felt it would be better to see the actual damage to the car than to hide it with new parts and read a report saying it was a total loss and not knowing the extent of the damage.
 The car is automatic and the transmission was serviced/ flushed at a transmission shop and is 100% flawless. It has power steering, power brakes, absolutely freezing air conditioning, and great heat, Tires have 10,000 miles on them, oil change and coolant flush, new thermostat and lower radiator hose, all new bulbs in all exterior lights this week. Has a new battery, starter and alternator and spark plugs, wires and distributor cap. 
The car gets 30mpg costs $35 to fill up and runs awesome.
Commute all week on one tank of gas! 
Great first car or College transportation!
These cars are almost impossible to find with this low mileage and when properly cared for last to 200k + miles easily.
Most of these offered have 150k + miles on them.

Priced at the low end of NADA value willing to hear reasonable offers.

Any questions just ask

Thanks!

New autonomous testing ground in Michigan will help battle bad weather

Thu, Dec 14 2017

If one of the big weaknesses of autonomous vehicles is their ability to navigate in the snow, consider this a trial by fire. The American Center for Mobility says it has opened its $110 million driverless car testing facility on the site of a former General Motors assembly plant in Michigan, with Toyota and auto supplier Visteon the first to begin testing this week. The ACM proving ground is a 500-acre site at historic Willow Run in Ypsilanti Township, near Ann Arbor. It's one of 10 sites designated by the U.S. Department of Transportation as pilot proving ground sites to test AV technologies. It features a variety of simulated environments to test driverless cars, including a 2.5-mile highway loop, two double overpasses, intersections, roundabouts and a 700-foot curved tunnel. It also opens just as the region experiences a series of snowstorms and the first frigid temperatures of the season. That ability to test autonomous vehicles in a wide variety of weather conditions is important, as autonomous vehicle sensors have struggled to handle cold, wet and snowy conditions. Google parent Alphabet in October said its Waymo division was expanding its winter testing operations to Michigan, making it the sixth state where it's testing its driverless car systems. In a Medium blog post, Waymo CEO John Krafcik wrote that "This type of testing will give us the opportunity to assess the way our sensors perform in wet, cold conditions. And it will also build on the advanced driving skills we've developed over the last eight years by teaching our cars how to handle things like skidding on icy, unplowed roads." Waymo also opened a development center in suburban Detroit in 2016, working with Fiat Chrysler to integrate its autonomous technology into Chrysler Pacifica hybrid minivans. Visteon began testing and validating its DriveCore autonomous driving platform to evaluate algorithms, vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-infrastructure technology and other systems. Toyota used the facility Wednesday to begin orientation and driver training. ACM has so far secured $110 million to construct the first two phases from founders Ford, Hyundai America Technical Center, Toyota and Visteon, and says it expects to announce more investment soon.

NHTSA investigating 561k Toyota Prius hybrids for possible steering shaft defect

Mon, 25 Feb 2013

The Detroit News is reporting that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration will investigate some 561,000 Toyota Prius models for potentially defective steering shafts. The affected hybrid models are from the 2004-2009 model years. The story indicates that NHTSA is weighing whether or not to grant a defect petition, which claims that Toyota incorrectly assembled the hatchback's steering linkage.
As of this writing, there is no recall. However, a recall based on the Prius steering shaft would be the third related to steering issues for the model since 2006. Seven years ago, Toyota recalled 170K Prius models for potential cracking of the intermediate shafts, and in November of 2012, the automaker recalled 670K units to replace the steering shaft extension assembly.
We'll be monitoring NHTSA's signals to see if this investigation turns into a full-fledged recall. For now, stay tuned.

Toyota confirms 2016 Tacoma for Detroit

Wed, Dec 10 2014

A week on from an announcement by Toyota's Bob Carter, the Japanese marque has formally announced that the 2016 Toyota Tacoma will make its global debut next month at the 2015 North American International Auto Show. Not only that, but the company has given us a very minute (and very muddy) teaser image, showing the truck's tailgate and driver's side taillight. Like its big brother, the Tundra, the 2016 Tacoma will feature its name embossed on its tailgate. Beyond that, though, there's really not much to be gleaned from this sole teaser shot. Of course, we'll have much, much more on the next-generation Taco when it arrives in a month's time. Until then, check out Toyota's hilariously brief and to-the-point press release, available below. Tacoma. Detroit. January 12. It's on. December 10, 2014 Toyota's rolling out the all-new 2016 Tacoma at the 2015 North American International Auto Show in Detroit on Jan. 12.
