Palo Alto, California, United States
|
For sale: a 1987 Toyota MR2 T-bar, manual 2-seater sports car. Mileage: 88,xxx. Location: Palo Alto, CA. Condition: very good. The car is in great working order - it has a few small cosmetic defects, but it runs beautifully, and just passed it’s CA smog test. It’s a fun, sporty car to drive - it clings to the road like a limpet. Gets good gas mileage (EPA-rated as 26 city/32 highway). I’ve owned this since it was new, and it’s served me well, but I’m buying a new convertible, so sadly I need to let it go. Clean title; one non-smoking owner. VIN JT2AW15J4H01200754. Classic first-generation MR2 model AW11. EXTERIOR - Original “super white” paint in great condition except for some small dents in the back left panel resulting from an interaction with a hedge. - Original rear spoiler and T-bar roof (including storage bags). - No sign of rust. No collisions/accidents - apart from that hedge. - Original spare tire, that has never been used. - Power windows, door locks, mirrors. - Aluminum alloy wheels. INTERIOR - Original blue cloth interior with “performance interior package” and floor mats. Still in great condition. - New Toyota shift boot and trim. - New Sony CD/radio. - There’s a couple of places where sunlight caused the plastic to get brittle, and suffer some cosmetic damage: (1) the cover for the mechanisms in the T-bar tops; (2) two small slits on the dash; (3) the surround or the rightmost dash air vent. None impair functionality. - Steering wheel has a leather cover added; the original underneath is a little rough. - Cruise control. - A/C and heater work great. ENGINE - Stock original engine: 4cyl 1.6L 16 valve dual overhead twin cam; not turbo-charged. - 5 speed manual engine No check engine lights! Its a healthy engine with no issues. - Newish battery; recently-replaced brake master cylinder. - Regular maintenance and service carried out as per Toyota guidelines. I have all the maintenance records if you want them. EXTRAS (all included) - a custom fitted car cover - Toyota maintenance and electrical manuals - tire chains (almost never used).

Toyota restructuring US operations, possibly moving to Texas
Sun, 27 Apr 2014According to multiple sources familiar with the matter, Toyota is poised to announce Monday that it is restructuring its US operations, which may include plans to relocate some of its operations to Texas. Toyota Motor Sales has been located in California since 1957, and is responsible for North American sales, marketing, and distribution for Toyota, Lexus and Scion. According to Toyota literature, its Torrance operations presently employs 6,156 workers and represents a $2.3-billion investment.
Workers in Toyota's Torrance offices were abuzz about the possible relocation to Texas. One young offspring of a Toyota employee even posted to Twitter that her parents warned about the upcoming move, and she said she's refusing to go.
Rumors at one point had Toyota settling in Richardson, TX, just outside Plano. But Autoblog talked to Richardson Mayor Laura Maczka, who said she would be thrilled if that were true, but has not heard anything on the subject. Autoblog also emailed with Bill Sutherland, a city councilman in Torrance, CA, who said, "To date the only info I have is what I have read in the paper expecting a press release Monday."
Toyota mini doc chronicles Tundra towing Space Shuttle Endeavor
Thu, 21 Mar 2013Toyota has worked up a quick video detailing the brand's involvement in the transportation of the Space Shuttle Endeavour last year. As you may recollect, the California Science Center ran into a hitch when it came to moving Endeavour from LAX to its new home. While most of the route would be covered by a robotically controlled transporter, one portion of the route directed the shuttle over an interstate. Unfortunately, the bridge across wasn't designed to stand up to the weight of the shuttle and its motorized sled.
The Science Center would have to remove Endeavour from its transporter and place it on a lighter, non-motorized sled. That's where longtime Science Center sponsor Toyota came in. As it turns out, the automaker had to prove to the California Science Center that a Tundra could actually tow the massive shuttle, so engineers put on a little demonstration with a stock truck pulling the equivalent weight over flat ground for the same distance. Once the Science Center was satisfied that the Tundra could pull it off, the move was green lit and the rest is history. Check out the short documentary below for yourself.
