2003 Toyota Prius Base Sedan 4-door 1.5l on 2040-cars
Sherman Oaks, California, United States
Up for Sale is this 2003 Sea Foam Green Toyota Prius. Do you see yourself wanting a great car good on mileage. Do you feel like its time to save some dough on gasoline prices? I purchased this 2003 Prius in 2006. At the time it had 20,000 miles on it and was in excellent shape. It only had one other owner besides me, and they took really good care of it. This is a non smoking vehicle. Since then the car has recieved regular oil changes, alighnments, service at the required miles at my mechanic and the Toyota Garage. The Transmission and Battery are in great shape. I just had a refurbished battery put in the car back in September of 2013 and it is running great. The car is said to be able to make it to 200,000 miles or more before any major issues. I am going to be honest here. It still has 132,000 miles on it. Anyone purchasing it should know that there will be maintenance on the car. The good news is that Toyotas are very dependable. The tires I just purchased in August of 2013 and they have almost full tread on them. I have had the car in a gated covered parking spot for most of the time I have owned it. The Miles per galon is 42/city 41 Highway. I have gotten in the up some of 75mpg or more. The car has a regenerative breaking system which charges the battery as the wheels are coming to a stop. The Brakes are in excellent condition and do NOT take the same wear and tear as normal vehicles. I loved my Prius so much, that I am looking to move onto a fully electric vehicle. In a city like Los Angeles It makes sense. This car will never need a smog check...ever. Serious Bidders only. Local pick up required, or buyer is responsible for researching rates for putting this car on a freight. If buyer finds a freight company to ship this car, then I can tack on extra money to drive it to said location. Must be within 30 minutes of my location however. No refunds, Returns, or Exchanges. |

Toyota nearing $1B settlement of unintended acceleration criminal probe
Sun, 09 Feb 2014According to those all-too-nebulous "people familiar with the matter," Toyota is close to a settlement with the US federal government to end a criminal probe over its long-running unintended acceleration fiasco. Though Toyota has never admitted guilt, the deal could reportedly crest a billion dollars and would likely include a criminal deferred prosecution agreement, and while we're not legal experts, The Wall Street Journal explains that such a deal would "[force Toyota] to accept responsibility while avoiding the potentially crippling consequences of federal criminal convictions."
The report from WSJ also suggests that Toyota is facing charges that it "made false or incomplete disclosures" to various government agencies regarding possible defects to its cars. Such charges may include mail and wire fraud violations. Toyota has already paid out fines totaling $66.2 million to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration because it failed to report safety defects in a timely manner.
This deal with the federal government is not related to the billion-dollar class-action settlement reached with Toyota owners over falling vehicle values, and it's also different from the roughly 400 lawsuits still in courts alleging personal injury of wrongful death due to cases of unintended acceleration. In other words, don't expect to hear the end of such courtroom verdicts and settlements anytime soon...
Coming Toyota Supra to forgo hybrid, get a BMW six-cylinder turbo?
Mon, Mar 30 2015For years, almost all of the talk about the Toyota FT-1 concept becoming a resurrected Supra envisioned a hybrid under the hood. And then the latest take on Future Toyota 1 showed up at the 2014 Detroit Auto Show and - although Toyota wouldn't say a word about any engine at all - horizons began to expand. Imaginary fancies were aided by the news that Toyota had partnered with BMW to develop a sports car on the next-generation BMW Z4 platform, which would necessarily mean an engine bay designed to accept an old-fashioned hunk of gas-burning iron-working solo. Car and Driver now turns the whole thing around, reporting that there will be an inline-six with forced induction provided by BMW under the hood. What about that hybrid, though? The report states, "there's currently no indication that the Silk Road cars will offer hybrid options" - 'Silk Road' being the codename for the jointly-developed vehicles. CD makes a point to note that said tidbit came from Germany, not Japan. However, designers at Toyota's Calty studio did tell Automotive News last year that they designed the body with an inline-six in mind, a nod to the Supra's history. Hybrid rumors aren't dead yet, though - remember, we were hearing about all-wheel drive and supercapacitors in May 2014. The coupe is predicted to be a 2018 model, making its appearance sometime in 2017, and be "about 10 percent" smaller than the FT-1 concept. Related Video:
Toyota releases teaser for Kaley Cuoco Super Bowl ad
Wed, 23 Jan 2013Toyota has released a 35-second teaser video for its upcoming Super Bowl spot staring Kaley Cuoco, the actress best known for her role as object-of-nerd-affection Penny on The Big Bang Theory. The real star of the ad, however, is its soundtrack, the 1995 hit "I Wish" by rapper Skee-Lo that will have your mind cashing nostalgia checks the moment it hits your ears.
We still don't know much about the content, plot or story of this Super Bowl commercial, though we can say that its object of promotion is likely the new RAV4 we see Ms. Cuoco driving in this teaser. The rest of the time she's walking the street in a purple getup granting wishes like Robin Williams on a Disney sound stage. And then the Easter Bunny and a chihuahua enter the picture and we get lost. Clint Eastwood under a bridge this is not.
But hey, Super Bowl ads cost millions and millions of dollars to produce and air, so we trust that Toyota spent its money wisely and will have us ROFLing on game day. Until then, scroll down and witness for yourself the debut of Kaley Cuoco as a Toyota spokeswoman.
