1983 Toyota Levin straight from JAPAN! This is a real Levin that was never sold in the US Market. It is 5 speed manual and has been stripped for weight savings. The car is very light now. It has a one piece drivers bucket seat that is very narrow (winning bidder may need a wider seat installed) and stock JDM passenger seat. No back seats, no carpet, no unneeded interior accessories. Dashboard has a few cracks in it. Has a great working and very desirable Digital Dashboard. The pictures show the condition of the interior which is utilitarian. If the new owner woudl liek to switch it back to a more stock style interior, luckily most of the US Stock pieces fit in just fine.

Ebay does not accept JDM VIN's as they are shorter than US VINS. The VIN is AE865005138. AE86 is the chasis codes for this Levin.

Car starts right up and drives great. It's a much different experience form driving a stock AE86. The motor has been swapped for a Red Top 4AGE with under 20,000 miles on the motor. That is the more powerful 4AGE. It also has a newer heavier duty clutch, larger throttle body, custom intake with larger throttle body plate, upgraded ignition, intake, header, full exhaust with no restriction (can be a little loud), strut bar, silicone radiator hoses, small light weight battery and tuned for upgrades.

Other upgrades are front coilovers with camber adjustment, rear springs and shocks, full body kit including whale tail wing, SSR wheels, spare Watanabe wheel, and newer paint job. As you can see in the pictures, the car is low. It can be loaded and unloaded on a full trailer just fine if you are on a hill.

It has of course the stock Levin front end which is very desirable. Just the front end of this car is worth a good amount of money.

This car was never offered in the American market. It is still a very popular model in Japan to this day. It's light weight, super fun to drive, huge aftermarket support and unique styling. The best part is it is 100% LEGALLY IMPORTED. I can't stress how important that is. It is the only way to get a REAL Title in your state.

The car has been legally imported under the 25 years and old rule. It will come with all of it's import papers such as customs, EPA, DOT, Homeland security, De-Registration documents form Japan, Bill of Sale from Japan, Bill of Sale from me in US. All of these will allow you to get a title in your respective state. The only hurdle perhaps being your local SMOG laws. At most you may have to modify the exhaust system as this one has no emissions controls or anything on it. It's usually is the same process as registered a car from out of state. Please ask your local DMV if you have questions on how to title the car. It will most likely involve a VIN check to make sure it's the same that's on your paper work and showing them all the legal imported documents. Ebay requires me to select a title status on the car, but it does not hold a state title as of this time just to be clear as stated previously.

To be clear, the winning bidder is responsible for titling the car in their home state. I will provide ALL necessary import documentation. The DMV can be a little confused but they will eventually figure it out and you will be issued a title as long as you are not in California.

NOTE: It is near impossible to get a LEGAL California title for this car. Every other state is able to issue a title by going to your DMV, giving them all the paper work and having them walk you through the process EXCEPT California. Their laws are such that it is unable to be titled in California.

Again, everything has been done 100% LEGAL! There are no shady deals that have been made, or people paid off in customs or anything. Everything has been done proper and all taxes and import / export fees paid. There are a lot of them. Haha.

Since the car does not have US issued plates, it will have to be trailered or shipped to it's final destination.

Feel free to ask any questions you have. Also, the reserve is set pretty low for how unique this car is. Check out my other listing for another JDM Legally Imported car too.

Reserve price has been lowered!! I need the space unfortunately.

Bring back the Bronco! Trademarks we hope are actually (someday) future car names

Tue, Mar 17 2015

Trademark filings are the tea leaves of the auto industry. Read them carefully – and interpret them correctly Â– and you might be previewing an automaker's future product plans. Yes, they're routinely filed to maintain the rights to an iconic name. And sometimes they're only for toys and clothing. But not always. Sometimes, the truth is right in front of us. The trademark is required because a company actually wants to use the name on a new car. With that in mind, here's a list of intriguing trademark filings we want to see go from paperwork to production reality. Trademark: Bronco Company: Ford Previous Use: The Bronco was a long-running SUV that lived from 1966-1996. It's one of America's original SUVs and was responsible for the increased popularity of the segment. Still, it's best known as O.J. Simpson's would-be getaway car. We think: The Bronco was an icon. Everyone seems to want a Wrangler-fighter Â– Ford used to have a good one. Enough time has passed that the O.J. police chase isn't the immediate image conjured by the Bronco anymore. Even if we're doing a wish list in no particular order, the Bronco still finds its way to the top. For now (unfortunately), it's just federal paperwork. Rumors on this one can get especially heated. The official word from a Ford spokesman is: "Companies renew trademark filings to maintain ownership and control of the mark, even if it is not currently used. Ford values the iconic Bronco name and history." Trademarks: Aviator, AV8R Company: Ford Previous Use: The Aviator was one of the shortest-run Lincolns ever, lasting for the 2003-2005 model years. It never found the sales success of the Ford Explorer, with which it shared a platform. We Think: The Aviator name no longer fits with Lincoln's naming nomenclature. Too bad, it's better than any other name Lincoln currently uses, save for its former big brother, the Navigator. Perhaps we're barking up the wrong tree, though. Ford has made several customized, aviation themed-Mustangs in the past, including one called the Mustang AV8R in 2008, which had cues from the US Air Force's F-22 Raptor fighter jet. It sold for $500,000 at auction, and the glass roof Â– which is reminiscent of a fighter jet cockpit Â– helped Ford popularize the feature. Trademark: EcoBeast Company: Ford Previous Use: None by major carmakers.

Toyota Tacoma helps stand up to your girlfriend, mimes, magicians and the Grim Reaper

Mon, 26 Aug 2013

It takes a lot to get a product noticed in today's fast-paced world, but one avenue that's always seemed to grab the eyeballs of consumers has been humor. Toyota knows this rule well, and has put together a quartet of spots called "Tacoma Wins," in which the midsize pickup's features and specifications best a number of seemingly worthy competitors.
Whether it be sobbing girlfriends, a circus magician, a grim reaper or the scariest thing of all, a mime, the Tacoma looks well equipped to deal with it. Take a look below for all four of Toyota's newest spots.
