Incredibly Clean '89 Supra Sport Turbo With 5spd And Only 48k Original Miles!!! on 2040-cars
Chandler, Arizona, United States
Up for sale is an incredibly clean and original red on gray leather manual transmission 1989 Toyota Supra Turbo with a Targa roof and the optional Sport Suspension Package. See below for a complete description of the car. I have a small private collection of sports cars from the 80's/90's and I have maxed out my storage location thus need to sell a car every time I buy one. In this case, I purchased a Buick GNX (on eBay) last week which has always been a dream car for me, but it means another car must go. The only reason I am choosing to sell the Supra is that it has the highest mileage of the cars in my collection and I have driven it the most since I have owned it. There is absolutely nothing wrong with the car...in fact, it is one of the cleanest in the collection irrespective of the miles. Please review the information below and contact me at 480-227-9850 if you have any questions.
Car History: I purchased the car from the 2nd owner in August of 2013 out of Louisiana. It was previously in Illinois with the original owner for most of its life. Prior to buying it, I spoke to the original owner to understand the complete history since new and was happy to learn it was always in the care of an enthusiast. The original owner informed me of an incorrect mileage entry in 2001 which showed up on the CarFax report I ran. All the information and documentation provided confirmed this was simply an error. The car has zero rust, dents, or body work, and the paint is original and is truly impressive. Included with the purchase are the original Owner's Manual, Accessories Guide, Supra Sales Brochure, Window Sticker, and what appears to be Factory Build Sheets (in Japanese). The OEM Targa removal tool, jack (never used), and three keys are included as well.
Engine: The 7M GTE 3.0L V6 Turbo engine is a true classic with good power and legendary reliability. The engine is completely stock and is rated at 232HP and 254TQ. Mated with a slick shifting 5 speed transmission, the car is a joy to drive. I have driven this car on several 300 mile trips and am amazed at how smooth the engine is. Even at 25 years old, it has plenty of power and cruises comfortable above 80mph for hours. The engine compartment is fully detailed and looks like new.
Maintenance: Since I have owned the car, I have had all four brakes and rotors replaced, new fuel filter installed, and all fluids changed. As with the previous owners, only Synthetic motor oil, Royal Purple Transmission and Differential Fluid has been used. The brake lines were replaced in 2012 as was the turbo seals and manifold gasket which had a minor leak, all with OEM parts. Everything else is original and the engine is currently in excellent running condition.
Exterior: The factory original "Super Red" paint is really amazing still with only a couple stone chips on the hood. The previous owner installed a 3M clear bra to prevent more chips. The Targa roof panel is in as new condition as are all the trim pieces. The glass is original and free of marks (except VIN etching). The wheels match the rest of the car and are in excellent shape. Tires are Toyos and have less than 2,000 miles on them. All lights and signals work perfectly.
Interior: The interior is also amazing shape and looks/feels like new. The Gray leather is a fairly rare option and looks great with the red exterior. The leather is in great condition and shows little wear. In fact, only the driver's seat exhibits wear and it is minor...limited to the bolster and a scratch on the thigh support (see pic). The dash, bezels and interior trim is perfect and all gauges and lights work as new. The car has its original factory radio cassette with slave CD unit. The system works great but the display on the head unit is dim and difficult to read.
Misc.: The car has its original A/C system which works perfectly. Heat and defrost also work without problems. The Supra is equipped with optional equipment including Anti-Lock Brakes and the Sport Package which includes the electronic modulated suspension system (TEMS). This system features a "normal and "sport" option keypad on the center console and works as new. The leather seats were also an option as was the carpeted floor mats which are still in great shape.
Auction Details: A $500 non-refundable deposit is required within 48 hours via PayPal. Final payment via bank wire or cash is due within 7 days of the auction ending. If the above is not complied with or other arrangements are not agreed to prior, the transaction will be canceled, negative feedback left, and the car will be re-listed. All shipping costs are the responsibility of the buyer but I will assist in the pick up as needed. The car is located in Chandler, Arizona 85249. Thanks for your interest in my Supra and feel free to contact me with any questions.

Lexus GX, Toyota Land Cruiser Prado facelifts leaked
Thu, 22 Aug 2013The Lexus GX and the Toyota Land Cruiser Prado, which isn't sold in the US, have gone without visual updates since the current generation was launched in 2009. But what appear to be patent filing sketches and pictures of the sibling sports utility vehicles' mid-cycle updates have been leaked on a Russian Land Cruiser Club forum.
Major changes to the GX's front end will be made to incorporate Lexus' signature grille. Gone are the awkwardly shaped headlamps and the soft-looking triple-slat grille. The sketch shows the Lexus with a new bumper, lower-profile headlights and a more aggressive, angular grille with one more slat and a gaping lower air-intake opening. The vehicle's profile looks unchanged, but the rear bumper will be reshaped slightly to fit new, better-integrated horizontal reflectors.
The Toyota gets a handful of styling updates as well, including a new front bumper with higher-profile headlamps that look a bit out of place to us. The Prado's profile also looks unchanged, but the rear end gets restyled taillights and a reshaped license-plate enclosure.
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.
Buy a Toyota GT86 and your wife will hate you
Wed, 14 Nov 2012Marketing can be a very strange business. Convincing a man or woman (or child, really) that they absolutely cannot live without the latest, greatest new bit of technology oftentimes takes a unique approach. In the "online film promoting the Toyota GT86" you'll see below, created by agency Happiness Brussels, men are reverse-psychologied into thinking a new sports coupe will make them more masculine by getting their loved ones to hate them. Or something like that. We think.
In any case, we suggest you watch the video below to see how much fun men can have with a GT86 - or Scion FR-S or Subaru BRZ, presumably - at the expense of their significant others. Fair warning: There's a potential Not Safe For Work moment in the ad: beware of a brief male butt shot about 44 seconds in.
Marketing. Gotta love it. Unless you're married to a man. Or something like that. We think. Whatever, just watch.
