             * 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.  Please have your funding in place prior to placing your bid.  Thank you.

Inspections are welcome and will be facilitated to the best of my ability prior to the auction concluding.

The car and I are located in the Colorado Springs vicinity.

Transportation and or delivery is the sole responsibility of the buyer.

I believe that the car could be driven home safely to anywhere in America.  If you choose to fly in and drive home, I will gladly pick you up from the airport in Colorado Springs.

Trailered delivery is possible in the lower 48 states for $1000.00 (non-negotiable)  I can also recommend a reputable shipper for you, if needed.  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.  The balance is then due and payable within 7 days thereafter under condition and arrangement made between myself and the buyer.

I prefer a legitimate bank to bank wire trasfer for the balance, as it provides a documented record of the transaction for both parties.

I will accept PayPal for the balance, however, ONLY if the buyer pays ALL PayPal related fees including the intial payment fee. (approx. $30 per $1000.00)

The car and title will not be released until payment in full has been received.  Clear Colorado title.

I answer my phone quicker than I respond to e-mail.  If you have any questions, call me directly.  If you reach my voice mail, leave me a message and I will return your call promptly.

Ebay provides for 24 pictures.  I have selected pictures that best present a concise overview of the car.  If you would like any area specific pictures, simply request them.

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!

Toyota recalling 615k Sienna models over rollaway risk

Thu, 26 Sep 2013

Toyota has announced a recall affecting approximately 615,000 Sienna minivans due to a possible rollaway risk. All of the vehicles in question are from the 2004, 2005, 2007, 2008 and 2009 model years.
In an official statement, the automaker states that the problem stems from the vehicle's shift lever assembly. "Because of the potential for damage to the shift lock solenoid installed in involved vehicles, there is a possibility that the shift lever could be moved out of the 'P' position without the driver depressing the brake pedal," Toyota said. Because of this fault, the affected Sienna models could roll away without warning, increasing the risk for a crash.
Owners will be notified via first class mail, and the affected Sienna models can be taken to Toyota dealerships to have the shift lock solenoid replaced with a new one. Have a look below for the automaker's official release.

Toyota highlights JDM Mark X with special Yellow Label edition

Fri, 05 Sep 2014

Never heard of the Toyota Mark X? That's because the Japanese automaker only sells it in its home market (and in China as the Reiz). It's a rear-drive (or all-wheel-drive) sports sedan about the size of a Lexus IS, whose existence is probably why Toyota will never bring the Mark X to North America. The current model has been on the market since 2009, but Toyota is rolling out a series of updates - including the new Yellow Label model pictured here.
Available on the 250G, 250G Four and 250G S trim levels, the Yellow Label gets a special shade of Awaken Yellow paint (though it can be had in black, white or silver as well), with an interior decked out in either yellow or black. It also gets piano lacquer trim, yellow stitching, pink gold accents, special tread plates and other interior equipment upgrades, as well as a unique set of alloys. All of which makes the Toyota Mark X Yellow Label perfect for recreating scenes from Kill Bill without the need to squeeze into yellow leathers. (In fact we wouldn't be surprised to see Toyota doing just that for a promo clip.)
Power comes from a 2.5-liter V6 (and not the larger 3.5 available on the 350S model) channeled through a six-speed automatic to either the rear wheels or all four. Pricing ranges between 2.8 and 3.1 million yen (~$26-30k), representing a premium of about 106k yen ($1k) over non-yellow models. Toyota operates four distinct dealer networks in Japan, and the Mark X is sold through Toyopet stores.

Toyota Prius sales could come up short in 2013

Sat, 06 Jul 2013

A Toyota executive has said that the automaker's hybrid Prius model may not reach its 2013 goal of selling 250,000 units in the US marketplace. Bill Fay, group vice president for Toyota's US sales, told Reuters, "The 240,000 to 250,000 range is kind of where we're settling our sights for the Prius family."
The first-generation Prius, a five-passenger model, was introduced to the States in 2001 (its arrival made it the second mass-produced hybrid, after the two-seat Honda Insight). The second-generation model arrived in 2004, followed by the current third-generation design that arrived for the 2010 model year. The automaker has subsequently added the Prius V, a hatchback wagon (shown above) and the Prius C, a subcompact hatchback. As of March, 2013, cumulative worldwide sales of the Prius had reached 3.67 million units.
Last year, Toyota sold 236,659 Prius models in the US. However, sales of the model have fallen 5.1 percent in the first six months of 2013. In response, the automaker has boosted its marketing for the model, and the promotions are expected to continue through at least July.
