Rare, completely original 1992 Toyota Supra MKIII, with turbo, automatic transmission, 92,000 miles, leather, and removable roof panel. This car has all options. The last year of this body style, the ’92 is the most sophisticated design and best of its run (according to car magazine reviews of the day). Teal blue paint is original and in excellent shape considering its 22 years in the So Cal sunshine. There is a barely noticeable ding or two in the door panel from a car door opening into it in a parking lot. And a barely noticeable abrasion mark about 6 inches long on the right front bumper that can probably be buffed out. The paint is also beginning to show signs of oxidation here and there in the clear-coat (that can also probably be buffed out). The oxidation can be seen mainly on the roof panel and rear bumper/spoiler area. The black trim around the rear lift-back glass and black paint on wiper arms shows some sun damage (see pics). Interior is very good (dash is perfect, no splits) but passenger seat (now covered) recently developed a crack and split open in the seat area. The previous owner shortened the driver floor mat, it apparently curled up and interfered with pedals but hasn’t while I’ve owned it. The rest of the interior is new car clean and all the controls/gadgets work as they should. The retractable cargo cover works and is in good shape except for some cosmetic peeling of the pigmented coating that covers a non-moving part of it. The factory CD/Tape/radio is installed (has never been out as far as I know) and everything associated with it works except the CD play head is slightly out of alignment causing one stereo channel to playback quietly relative to the other. The antenna raises and lowers as it should. The engine runs great and transmission shifts smoothly (many do not, I've heard). This car has been adult owned and driven, and has received regular maintenance since new. I have maintenance records back to year 2000. All maintenance was performed by the dealer that sold the car new until 2008 (Toyota of Cerritos, CA). All the maintenance I’ve done since then has been by either a local San Diego Toyota dealership or a long-time trusted mechanic who owns an established local repair shop. All rubber hoses and tubing replaced in 2010. Battery is about a year old. New tires around 10k miles ago. This car is reliable and tight. No rattles at all. No leaks. Drives and sounds like a new car but better because you seldom see another one on the road and it gets more compliments than any new car I’ve ever owned. I found this car in a small dealership near Los Angeles in 2008 after the original owner traded it in on a new Toyota from the dealer that sold him the Supra in 1992 (mileage was about 72,000). The dealer wholesaled it to Ray’s auto where I found it. I contacted the original owner and he told me the car’s history. The dealership that originally sold the car gave me a computer printout of the maintenance performed but their history only went back to year 2000.

Watch the Muppets go for ice cream in a Toyota

Tue, 25 Feb 2014

Do Muppets drive? We're not sure it's necessarily a good idea, but it's been known to happen. Fozzy called his hibernating uncle's Studebaker a bear's "natural habitat," and Doctor Teeth wouldn't get the Electric Mayhem very far without his band's psychedelically painted school bus. But how about Rolf in a 2014 Toyota Highlander?
That's what we got a glimpse of in the run-up to the Super Bowl, and the same combination (plus one Rizzo the Rat) that features in this adorably ordinary video below. Ordinary because it's just a couple of guys going out for an ice cream. Adorable because, well... they're Muppets. See what we mean in the surprisingly entertaining two-minute clip below.

Toyota may put Mirai hydrogen fuel cell powertrain into a Lexus

Wed, Dec 24 2014

Toyota is hoping to define the world of hydrogen fuel cell vehicles with its uniquely styled Mirai sedan in a fashion similar to the way the Prius pops into people's minds when they think of a hybrid. The Japanese automaker believes it can sell about 700 FCEVs worldwide in the first year alone and build rapidly from there to an estimated 3,000 sales in the US by 2017. Of course, not everyone is completely enamored with the Mirai's design. Toyota is rumored to have an alternative in the works to quell some of those naysayers, possibly taking flagship form with a new Lexus LS powered by fuel-cell tech. The LS FCEV could be unveiled by 2017 to sit at the very top of brand's lineup. According to an inside source speaking to the Australian website Motoring, the front end would feature larger air intakes to cool the electrical components. The fuel cell would reportedly be positioned under the front seat, and the hydrogen tanks would be located under and behind the rear seat. Somehow, Motoring claims that all of this might be lighter than the current LS600hL hybrid, to the tune about 440 pounds. The model is also claimed to offer a range of about 239 miles, just a bit shy of the Mirai's roughly 300 miles. Assuming this vehicle actually exists, the cost for buyers of this flagship would almost certainly ring up at more than the LS600hL's $120,440 base price. Autoblog has reached out to Toyota for any further info about this rumor, one way or the other. If we hear back, we'll update this story with the details.

Toyota offered $146.5 million to build Lexus ES in Kentucky

Thu, 18 Apr 2013

Toyota posted a media advisory yesterday saying that Akio Toyoda, president of Toyota, and Jim Lentz, CEO of Toyota North America, would be making a production announcement tomorrow in New York City, and Automotive News reports that the automaker will be announcing a plan to domestically produce the Lexus ES. According to the report, numerous plants are competing to build the ES in North America, and the State of Kentucky has offered the automaker up to $146.5 million to build the luxury sedan at the Georgetown, KY assembly plant.
If Georgetown gets the ES, which has been built in Japan since its debut in 1989, it would be built alongside the Toyota Camry, which is somewhat ironic since in our review of the 2013 Lexus ES350, we wrote that this ES finally says "goodbye to its Camry roots." In order to get the whole amount offered, the article states that Toyota would have to invest $531.2 million and hire 570 full-time workers at the plant, which doesn't sound all that unreasonable since the plant would require an additional 50,000 units of annual production, not to mention the fact that the Georgetown facility is already at its capacity for building the Camry.
