Hello and thank you viewing this auction. This is my first Mr2 so those of you in the know please feel free to educate me on the facts about this awesome Mr2. no warranty, no guaranty. you are buying this Mr2 "as is".
one issue; I just registered the title so it will be 4 weeks until I can overnight it to the winner of the auction. the title is clear no liens or anything like that.
this car has been a one owner car until I bought it a few days ago and he has 2 other vehicles that's how it has such low miles, it has been garaged its whole life, it has no modifications/completely original and is as the 1st owner bought it off the showroom floor. it has never been stunted or raced. never driven in the snow, it has spent its whole life in eastern Washington. the only rust I've been able to find is a small area on the battery hold down bracket.
the seat "covers" are nearly as old as the car so the seats upholstery is in excellent condition the rest of the interior is in pretty good shape also.
original stereo and speakers, still sounds really good.
original sunroof interior cover. I drove the car home in a downpour - not a drop from sunroof seal.
nearly new battery
nearly new tires. original small spare.
it does have a original rear window visor which has multiple paint specks or something "etched" into it.
no known major issues, it still feels tight when accelerating and turning. I started once releasing the clutch too quickly and too little throttle and the engine still didn't hesitate or knock.
as listed earlier this Mr2 does have normal wear and tear. rock chips in the paint, one noticeable rock chip in the windshield, a couple of parking lot dings like a door edge or shopping cart would inflict, the front air dam under the bumper has wear area across most of its bottom edge and has quite a few rock chip spots. I am trying to be very descriptive but please note these are all minor/normal wear and tear issues my intention is that you are able to able to make the most informed decision possible about this Mr2. a really good detailer could fine tune the chips and dings easily, I'm pretty sure this car has never been detailed, it hasn't really needed it. when I pull up to the Toyota owners club meeting the car gets plenty of adulation.
the "original" paint job overall is in pretty good shape, not noticeably faded "thanks to it garage life" but does have normal scratches from cleaning and the above mentioned minor chips and dings and scratches.
the parking brake holds well and feels "tight/fresh".
please feel free to ask questions and offer factoids.
as mentioned no warranty, no guaranty. sold as is, where is.
here's thought; if any of you "actual bidders" are serious about the miles, let me know, I'll stop driving it. it is such a head turner :)

2013 Toyota Tacoma TRD Sport
Tue, 16 Apr 2013"Oh yeah, Toyota still makes the Tacoma." Admit it, that's what you just said to yourself. It's a perfectly natural reaction, but the Tacoma has been quietly anchoring its segment for years, outselling every other compact pickup without making too much of a fuss. Toyota hasn't neglected the Tacoma - it was updated in 2012 with a revised nose and interior as the most noteable changes.
In a world awash with high-value fullsize pickups all vying for your attention, the Tacoma still charms more than a few buyers out of their cash. I hooked a Tacoma for a week to see whether it still has enough to recommend it.
Driving Notes
Which sinister Scion FR-S would you buy?
Tue, May 17 2016Look beyond the utility. Look beyond the amenities, the infotainment, the hidden storage cubbies, and the 72-way adjustable seats. Yes, even the seats. Outside all the fluff of today's cars, there's a blank canvas waiting for an artist; cars can really come alive with a few tastefully placed modifications. These two Scion FR-S sports cars surely fall into that category, and when they both turned up on eBay, we figured we'd ask the question — which would you rather buy? The track-centric red car or the brutally simple black car ? Internet, you be the judge. The "widebody" look — with its outrageous fender flares and visible rivets—isn't for everyone, but this 2013 Scion FR-S happens to pull it off quite well. According to the listing, the pumped-up fenders, splitter, and additional aero bits are courtesy of legendary widebody purveyor Rocket Bunny. Overall, the racy body mods add a significant twinge of aggression to the once docile FR-S... a notion that's echoed underneath the hood. The heady Scion FR-S leverages an HKS supercharger system and exhaust, paired with a set of Buddy Club racing coilover shocks, Bee-R wheels wrapped in Yokohama ADVAN rubber, and a new engine management system. All in all, this looks to be one fierce track and street monster. RELATED: Check Out This Wild Toyota GT86 Wagon Concept But whereas the red car is a shout, the black car is a growl. Confident, powerful, yet restrained. The black 2013 Scion FR-S sports a sultry Varis Arising 2 body kit with carbon fiber accents lining its front lip and boot lid, as well as a brilliant set of projector headlights and Tom's taillights. The icing on the cake is the set of Work M1R gunmetal grey wheels, which come fitted with Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires. There's no supercharger in play here, but the Scion's 2.0-liter boxer engine does breathe a bit easer thanks new ceramic coated exhaust headers and a high-flow catalytic converter. It can also handle a bit better too, courtesy of sporty Cusco Street Zero 3 coilover shocks. If we're honest, both are quite jaw-dropping in their own unique styles. But which do you prefer?

Details about next-gen Toyota Prius emerge
Tue, 28 Jan 2014The Toyota Prius is undeniably the king of the hybrid market in the United States, with a 39.4 percent market share in 2013. With the next-generation Prius likely to go on sale in 2015, Toyota is trying to build an even more efficient hybrid to keep its control of the market.
Keeping cost down will be one of the major concerns of the new Prius. The next generation will ride on the new, modular Toyota New Global Architecture platform. The lighter underpinnings will improve efficiency and will reduce production costs by allowing for more shared components among vehicles. Toyota will not reveal how many vehicles will use the new platform. But even with the cheaper platform, price will remain a concern. Toyota is still deciding whether all versions of the next Prius will use lithium-ion batteries or whether some models will stick with the heavier nickel-metal hydride batteries to keep cost down.
Of course, the reason most people buy the Prius is because of its great fuel efficiency. Toyota will aim for at least an 8 percent improvement in fuel economy in the next Prius, which would increase it to 58 miles per gallon city and 52 mpg highway.
