Hello eBayers! The time has come for me to part with my very faithful 2003 Totyota Corolla and hopefully find it a good home. I have recently purchased  new vehicle and no longer have a use or space for this one. This dependable Corolla makes for the perfect 1st car or commuter car. While the car does run perfectly well, I will be selling it as-is, as I am not a dealer and want to be done with the car selling business upon conclusion of this auction. For anyone interested in having a third party inspect the car, I am very open to that. Likewise, if a potential bidder lives in the area, I am fine with allowing for test drives. In the following description, I will make you aware of any and all issues relating to the car, as I do not want anyone's expectations to be misaligned. Let me tell you a bit more about the car:


Drive: For the last three years I have been driving this car to and from work, roughly 500 miles/week without a single mechanical problem, which is still the case. This car is a real testament to Toyotas, as even though it has 180k miles, you wouldn't know that from driving it, as the car runs perfectly fine. As you can surely imagine, with 180k miles, the car does not have all new parts and in time certain things may need updating, but as of right now the car is ready to drive right off the lot. 

Cosmetic: As you can tell from the pictures, the car is in very good cosmetic shape. The car has not been in any major accidents and does not have any dents. There is very slight paint chipping on the hood, which is barely noticeable. There is also one small chip on the driver's side door. The rear bumper also has pretty noticeable wear, as you can see from the picture. As for the interior, it is very clean. This is a non-smoking vehicle. The only interior issues would be a missing compartment door to one of the two compartments under the radio and some wear to the carpet on the driver's side floor. 

Other: The corolla needs work on the brake/tail lights, as they are both broken. I tried replacing the bulbs, but they kept falling out, on both sides. In one of my failed attempts to fix it, I actually broke the tail light casing on the drivers side. Because we are talking about lighting, I don't foresee this being a major issue, but it will certainly be something someone needs to fix before inspection. The car will also likely need two new tires in the front, as they are lacking great tread. 

Shipping: As I am not a dealer, I am not sure about means of shipping. Obviously I encourage anyone to come pick the car up locally and I can deliver the car in a 25 mile radius. If you want the car shipped, you would have to handle that yourself, but I will do everything I can to help. 

Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to shoot me an email and I will promptly get back to you. Happy bidding!

Mystery shoppers love Infiniti, hate Tesla

Tue, Jul 12 2016

Infiniti, followed by Lexus tied with Mercedes-Benz took the top two spots for best sales experience according to mystery shoppers from the latest Pied Piper Prospect Satisfaction Index, while EV manufacturer Tesla recorded the lowest overall score. Not surprisingly, premium brands dominated the top ranks. Including the three already mentioned, luxury brands occupied seven of the top ten spots and included Audi, BMW, Porsche, and the only American brand to crack the upper echelon, Cadillac. Toyota, Volkswagen, and Nissan rounded out the first ten positions. The news for domestic automakers isn't good. Aside from Caddy, the only other star-spangled automaker to score above the industry average is Chrysler. The rest of FCA, most of GM, and all of Ford fell below the line. But Pied Piper's mystery shoppers handed Tesla the biggest walloping – the company is ten full points below the next lowest brand, Volvo, and its score of 86 is 17 below the average of 103. It's baffling, considering the company's touted direct-sales model. "Tesla leaves me scratching my head," Fred O'Hagan, Pied Piper's president and CEO, told Wards Auto. "They own all of their stores, so you would think each one would be doing the same thing. But they're not. Tesla is consistent in its inconsistencies." O'Hagan added that there's a "huge variation" in Tesla's store-to-store effectiveness, and that in some cases, shoppers found showroom workers that acted more like "museum curators," Wards Auto reports. It might be popular to call Tesla the Apple of the car world, but based on Pied Piper's work, the brand has a long way to go to emulate the uniform shopping experience of an Apple Store. The news might be bad for Tesla, but even for the brands that scored below average, there's cause for celebration. Only Tesla and Mini lost points in this year's rankings, and only Mercedes and Lincoln held steady. Every other brand, including Infiniti, which topped the index for the first time, gained at least one point. The biggest improvements belong to Porsche, Land Rover, and Mitsubishi, which all jumped five points. Pied Piper's annual Prospect Satisfaction Index uses mystery shoppers – over 6,100 this year – from across the country to assess dealers and generate rankings from over 50 individual factors.

Ford predicts it will finish 2013 as top-selling US brand

Mon, 30 Dec 2013

Ford is ready to call the ball on its 2013 sales totals, predicting a first-place finish for units sold in the US for a single brand. The company anticipates selling more than 2.4 million vehicles when all vehicle sales over the last 12 months have been tallied, repeating the victory it trumpeted over Toyota last year.
According to Ford's accounting, it sold 329,677 more vehicles than did Toyota in 2012. This year, the Blue Oval expects that margin to grow; through the end of November, Ford says it has outsold Toyota by 396,041 units.
Retail sales of Ford products are projected to exceed 1.7 million units for 2013 (the best retail result in 6 years for the company), with passenger cars accounting for 600k of that total. The redesigned Fusion is expected to crest the 290k mark, and the Fiesta is said to be ready to hit a model-record of 70k-plus. Meanwhile, utility vehicles and trucks are still paying a lot of bills in Dearborn, with the new Escape racking up an expected 300k sales and F-Series trucks chugging along at 688,810 units sold thru November.

Next-gen Toyota Tacoma to debut at Detroit Auto Show

Thu, Dec 4 2014

Toyota's confirmation comes on the heels of General Motors' successful launch of its own midsize pickups. The next generation of the Toyota Tacoma pickup truck will be revealed in January at the Detroit Auto Show, a top executive confirmed Thursday. Bob Carter, senior vice president of automotive operations for Toyota, offered no other details, but the new version of the pickup is expected to have significant upgrades compared with the aging model on sale now. Our spy shooters caught a prototype testing this summer, and rumors of the new generation have been swirling for months. We've also previously reported that Toyota is planning to ramp up production next April at a factory in Mexico that builds the Tacoma. Toyota's confirmation comes on the heels of General Motors' successful launch of its own midsize pickups, the Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon, which have garnered awards, positive reviews and solid sales since they arrived in showrooms this fall. It's unclear how large the new Tacoma will be, especially considering that the Canyon and Colorado flirt with fullsize territory. The Tacoma was last updated in 2012, and the segment has changed dramatically since then with the addition of the GM trucks. Another Tacoma competitor, Honda's aging Ridgeline, is also expected to re-launch in 2015, which would leave the Nissan Frontier as the oldest truck in the field. Tacoma sales have slipped 4.1 percent to 140,757 units this year, though they posted a 3.3-percent gain in November. Meanwhile, Carter also said Lexus will reveal two performance vehicles, though he didn't elaborate. "I'll leave it at that, but I promise you'll enjoy it," he said coyly. Lexus just showed the LF-C2 convertible concept at the Los Angeles Auto Show.
