1986 Toyota Supra One Owner, All Original, Nice Condition Throughout, Zero Rust! on 2040-cars
Colorado Springs, Colorado, United States
* 1986 TOYOTA Celica SUPRA "P" * (Last Year MK II)
Before you and up for bid is my 1986 TOYOTA SUPRA "P" (performance) sport model hatchback. These cars are of significance in automotive history. The particulars of the Supra are as follows: * One adult owner, purchased new from Alamo Toyota in San Antonio,Texas. Owned & driven for 27 years in Austin,Texas, then stored and occasionally driven in Colorado, these past 2 years. * Low mileage for the year, only 172,118 actual miles. * CARFAX certified NO ACCIDENT history, ownership & miles. * A SOLID Texas car, guaranteed to be ZERO RUST. When considering the purchase of one of these Supra's, the most important aspect for one to look for is RUST. By virtue of inherent "drainage design" issues, these cars were notorious for rust in specific areas. Observe the pictures of the quarter panels, rockers, spare tire compartment, under the doors, and the rear hatch lip, the car is rust free. * A garaged & pampered, non-smoker, no pets, food or beverages. * All original, it has never been in any accidents, nor has it has been restored. Overall, the car is in very good condition. The paint is original, and therefore after 27 years of Texas sun, thin on the hood and roof. It also has some clouding along the sides. * The interior has been very well preserved. I would rate it a 9 out of 10. * Black over black/gray interior, this is considered to be the best color combination. * Inline Twin Cam 6 cylinder engine, produced 161 horsepower in this last year. (160 in 1985) Factory stock, never modified or abused. * These MK II Supra's, as they are known, were manufactured between 1982-1986. Fully imported from Japan. When considering one for purchase, the choice is personal as to whether a first or last year is better. In the case of 1986 Supra's, ALL 1986 models were leftover 1985 models titled as 1986 models. Toyota's delay of the introduction of the MK IIl Supra is this cars reason for being. There are clearly not many true (titled) 1986 models. They are therefore, quite rare. Production date code of August, 1985. To distinguish a 1986 from a 1985 model, one need only look to the rear of the car. For in 1986, the government saw to the arrival of the mandated third brake light. It is mounted beneath the rear deck spoiler. Once the 1986 model arrived during mid year, it was the redesigned MK lll, and indeed those cars were titled as 1986.5 vehicles. * 5- Speed manual transmission, shifts fine through all gears as well as into reverse. The clutch is fine. * Full power, windows, mirrors and locks, they all operate properly. * Cruise Control * Factory Power Sunroof, fully operational forward and back, no leaks. * Toyota factory AM/FM/Cassette w/graphic equalizer, it still plays fine. * Power antenna, works properly * Very good carpets throughout * Good headliner, no sags or tears * Near perfect dash, there are two small splits at the windshield, they are very narrow and only run a couple of inches each, (see pic) no warping. "Dash Mat" protective cover. * The front seats are in good condition, they slide properly, are supportive, and show little wear, the drivers side support bladder's and inflation hand pump operate properly. * The rear seat was generally folded down and saw minimal use, it is in great shape. * Leather wrapped steering wheel w/tilt feature, showing only slight wear at the bottom position. * Factory AC, presently it is not blowing cold, it has not been retrofitted. * Excellent heat, defrost, ventilation, etc. * All buttons, switches and control knobs are present, there is nothing broken or missing. * Excellent Supra factory aluminum alloy wheels, they do not have any curb rash. * Full size original spare alloy, in new condition, as it has not been used, the original Dunlop tire is present along with the original jack and tire tool. * BFG T/A radials (4) these were purchased at the same time, they have approximately 50% tread wear remaining. * Original owners manual, service records, supplemental operational pamphlets and keys are included. * All original Toyota glass, no windshield cracks or chips * All gaskets and weather stripping are soft & pliable * Nice door panels, the drivers side arm rest has two small nicks * Nice rear panels * Nice console, the armrest storage lid has been reupholstered, the courtesy remote map light Toyota built into the console is still present. * Emergency brake works great * The interior panels rear panels were removed to detail the car, are all in excellent condition, no broken tabs anywhere. * The rear hatch carpet is in excellent shape, no fraying, tears or fading. * Hatch and hood strut cartridges operate properly * Rear hatch retractable cargo shade is present and in good shape * Other than the aged paint, at 29 years of age, the car still looks good and drives great, it goes down the road effortlessly at 75, and stops assuredly. It is still a very tight car. * The car runs strong, cylinder compression is between 148-155, mechanically, it is very sound, there are NO annoying drips or leaks. I removed the seats, console and rear panels to thoroughly clean the carpeting. I also photo documented the interior with the aforementioned parts removed, so as to illustrate that the car is indeed RUST FREE! Recent service included new NGK plugs and wires, fresh fluids, (oil and coolant)and filters. The belts and hoses are recent, there are also extra Toyota belts that will be included. * All safety features, horn, lights, directionals, emergency flashers, wipers, etc., are fully operational * Both headlights operate properly in unison. * This car has so much potential, firstly, because it is rust free, secondly, because it has never been wrecked. It would be easy to take it down to metal, put a quality paint job on it, then drive and enjoy it. An inexpensive and iconic classic sports car, it receives comments most everywhere it goes. It is also a great candidate for an ITS racer or drift car. These cars are becoming increasingly rarer in this condition, being rear wheel drive, many were converted for racing purposes. As with most Toyota's, these cars are known for their excellent drivability and reliability. You are bidding to purchase the Supra, not to be the first to look at it.

If you choose to ship the car, I will coordinate with your chosen shipper. I have set a fair & reasonable reserve for the Supra. Please don't ask what it is. Bid what you can afford and are willing to pay for the RARE and RUST FREE last year 1986 Toyota Celica Supra that you see before you. A $1000.00 initial payment is due within 24 hours VIA PayPal.

If you would like to present a "buy it now", call and present your offer. DO NOT call and ask me, "what's the lowest that you'll take?" (Be thinking in the $5-$6 range) Buyers from the U.S., Canada, the UK, Europe, Australia and New Zealand are welcome and encouraged to bid with confidence. I am not a dealer, I am a collector/hobbyist. My plan was to restore the Supra, however, I recently underwent shoulder surgery which affected my timeline. In turn, another project is ready to be undertaken which requires the space presently occupied by the Supra. I strive to thoroughly and accurately represent the condition of a vehicle. Those that have purchased my cars are consistantly pleased with their vehicle, their expectations exceeded. Continued 100% eBay customer satisfaction is of importance to me. Thanks for looking and good luck when you bid! Jeff (719)-492-1234, c

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:
2014 Toyota Corolla priced from $16,800*
Tue, 27 Aug 2013We'll be publishing our First Drive of the 2014 Toyota Corolla later today, but right now, we can reveal that the eleventh-generation compact will be priced from $16,800 when it hits dealerships this fall (*not including a $810 destination charge).
Four trim levels will be offered, and that sub-$17,000 price point reflects the base L grade with a six-speed manual transmission. Adding the four-speed automatic (yep) brings that price up to $17,400, which gets you the usual features standard on this class of car, including Bluetooth connectivity, eight airbags and - a first for this price point - LED headlamps.
From there, the LE trim ($18,300) adds a backup camera, cruise control, keyless entry, Entune audio (including a 6.1-inch touchscreen) and a brand-new continuously variable transmission replacing the four-speed auto. There's even an Eco version of the LE trim that uses a different engine tune to provide fuel economy of up to 42 miles per gallon on the highway.
Toyota's Copen GR Sport is a tiny, racy roadster
Tue, Oct 15 2019In its home market, Toyota has a designated sport brand called GR, which is meant to invoke Toyota's Gazoo Racing division. It has three tiers of sportiness: the entry-level GR Sport, GR, and all-out range-topping GRMN. Ahead of the Tokyo Motor Show, Toyota announced it is adding to its GR Sport lineup a new mini convertible called the Copen GR Sport. Toyota pulled the Copen from Daihatsu's bank of cool minicars. Diahatsu announced its own Copen GR Sport at the Tokyo Auto Salon in early 2019. Now Toyota will sell its own hotted-up version of the tiny roadster. Toyota Gazoo Racing tweaked the new model and gave it sportier equipment and a visual update inside and out. First, let's talk basic stats. The Copen GR Sport weighs roughly 2,000 pounds and has a 0.66-liter turbocharged engine that makes 63 horsepower at 6,400 rpm and 68 lb-ft of torque at 3,200 rpm. It's front-wheel drive and is available with a five-speed manual or a continuously variable transmission (CVT) with seven-speed Super Active Shift and paddle shifters. Toyota left the powertrain alone and chose to focus on body rigidity and suspension tuning. The Copen GR Sport has specific shock absorbers, updated spring rates, retuned power steering, a new front brace, and a redesigned center brace. Toyota made the Copen a bit more visually aggressive as well. It has a unique front bumper with side air intakes, a larger front grille, and a rear bumper with a new diffuser look. It also comes with matte gray BBS forged-aluminum wheels, LED headlights, LED fog lights, and LED taillights. GR Sport emblems on the front, side, and rear assure passers-by this is not a regular Copen. In total, eight exterior colors are available, as are multiple color options for the roof. The black interior was spruced up with Recaro sport seats with GR embroidery, a MOMO leather-wrapped steering wheel with the GR emblem, piano black accents, and a new GR instrument cluster with red accents. Unfortunately, the pint-sized roadster is only available in Japan.
