Uniroyal Tiger Paw Touring tires are as new – approximately 3,000 miles on them. Adult driven. Never smoked-in. Full lube & service at Toyota Dealer less than 100 miles ago. I also told them to check the car out completely and fix anything they found, clean out evaporator and change filter in A/C. They found something leaking on the steering, so, it wound up being a $1,200 visit. But the car is completely checked-out and current.    According to a strict reading of the Kelley Blue Book Condition guidelines this car is in "Very Good Condition". The things that keep it from being “Excellent” are some very small scratches around the bottom – only one is readily visible – see pictures, and the driver’s seat shows some wear – see pictures.  The car was also just detailed and waxed. It is spotless.   The only comparable car now on eBay has 79,000 miles and the mega-dealer in TX has BUY-IT-NOW of $13,780.

This is a very good little car and I have enjoyed driving it, but I have decided to buy a Porsche 911, so that is why its up for sale. The car is located in Southeast Charlotte, NC. Please call Hank at (843) 290-4368 to arrange a personal inspection.   Please note that this is a NO RESERVE Auction. If you bid, you are buying it. Please do not bid unless you have the money lined up to pay for this car within 3 days of the auction completion. Thanks for looking at my Auction. Good luck!

Toyota Prius sets a different kind of Nurburgring lap record [w/video]

Tue, 15 Jul 2014

Scroll down the leaderboards of Nürburgring lap times and you'll see mostly racing cars, supercars and sports cars. Delve deep enough and you'll eventually get to hatchbacks and sedans, albeit the most performance-focused of their kind. But a hybrid? Sure, the Porsche 918 Spyder posted the top time for a street-legal series production car, and it's technically a hybrid, but we're talking about another kind of hybrid here. We're talking about a Toyota Prius.
That's right: the Prius just set a lap record around the Nordschleife. But it wasn't for the lap time. In fact, miles per hour barely factored in (except for staying above the minimum 37-mph average speed mandated on the vaunted racing circuit). No, this was about miles per gallon.
Toyota took one of its Prius Plug-In hybrids to the Nürburgring, topped up the battery, put on a set of low-rolling-resistance tires and put automotive journalist Joe Clifford behind the wheel with a mandate to use as little fuel as possible. After one second shy of 21 minutes, the Prius completed its lap having used just five tablespoons of fuel.

Toyota, Honda, Nissan and more collaborating to increase fuel efficiency

Sun, 25 May 2014

Toyota, Honda, Mazda, Nissan, Subaru, Mitsubishi, Suzuki and Daihatsu have announced an alliance that will see a push to improve fuel economy from both gas-powered and diesel-powered engines by as much as 30 percent before the end of the decade.
The newly assembled Research Association of Automotive Internal Combustion Engines put the roughly $20-million project together, with the Japanese government committing to half the cost while the eight manufacturers will chip in the rest.
According to Automotive News, the automakers will team up and share basic research on internal-combustion engines in a bid to cut costs. Eventually, the results of the research will find its way into a production vehicle, although it's unclear just when we'll see the fruits of this partnership on the road.

Scion FR-S Convertible (in Toyota GT86 form) spied in South Africa

Fri, 15 Feb 2013

Though the eventual existence of a convertible version of the Toyota GT86 (and its Scion FR-S and Subaru BRZ versions for America) is a no-brainer, we've yet to get a glimpse of the real-deal car until now.
Spotted in Cape Town, South Africa, of all places, this completely undisguised GT86 convertible seems to be in a remarkably advanced state of development. The image seen here was obviously sniped from quite a distance and without the aid of a powerful lens, but we can still make out a production-ready looking piece of rear bodywork for the convertible top to hide away in, as well as a functioning trunk lid. It's hard to make out with any certainty, based on this evidence, but there does seem to be space retained behind the front seats for two, small rear chairs.
With the first car spotted, we'd expect to seem some more and better images of it flow through in the near future, and if not, Toyota has already confirmed a concept version for next month's Geneva Motor Show, dubbed FT-86 Open, so stay tuned. For now, click through to the FT86Club.com forum to have a slightly closer look at the images.
