I bought this car new in Dec ’03 at Toyota of Glendora Ca.   In addition to regular 4-5k mile oil changes, it was serviced 5/07 by Toyota at 65k for scheduled maintenance, again 10/09 at 96k with a water pump and the routine 100k service.  In 9/13, the 120k service was performed at Toyota in Palm Springs and included brakes.  I have all keys, docs and everything else since new.  The car runs great and I think it has a long life ahead.  The car shows some use because I have transported lumber, cement, hardware, bricks and everything else anybody would need to work on and fix up a personal residence over a period of years.  As a result, the dash, on the passenger side is a bit scuffed from lumber rubbing on it.  Also the interior plastic molding around the hatch is scuffed for the same reason.  The exterior is marked here and there with paint transfer and scuffs in a few areas.  The front bumper has some paint transfer from rubbing against a carport post.  The right side has some white paint transfer from the white car next to mine opening its door because the spaces are narrow and the guy is fat.  There seems to be a bit of transfer on the left rear bumper which I have only just noticed while taking these pictures.  There is a small dent shown on the right front fender in the picture.  The Michelin tires were new in May ’09 at 88K, but show good remaining tread per the pics.  The windshield had rock impacts and was replaced 2/14.  Everything works fine.  The only reason I’m selling the car is that after ten years, I just want a change.  (Probably a mistake.)  It’s been the best and most practical car I’ve ever owned and I’d like it to go to someone who’ll give it a good home. Included is a Magellan Roadmate 9250T-LMB 7" GPS with lifetime updates. Vehicle has 125,010 miles right now.

Scion sketches SEMA spread starring Slayer, skateboarder

Sat, 20 Sep 2014

I was in Nashville last weekend for a friend's bachelor party. It's all rather fuzzy, but I do recall that my friends and I found it hilarious to request Slayer every time one of the country groups on the Broadway strip asked for a specific song to be played. While there were a few good sports, most didn't find it too funny, largely because country music and Slayer don't mix all that well. Actually, Slayer and a lot of things don't mix too well. Like Slayer and Scion, Toyota's slowly withering youth brand.
This mish-mash hasn't prevented the Japanese budget brand from teaming with the metal group for a concept vehicle based on the tC coupe (shown above). If the Slayer link is a bit too extreme, Scion has a more mainstream xB, styled by skateboarder Riley Hawk on the way. Both new vehicles will be shown at the upcoming SEMA show, but Scion has opted to release a pair of sketches of both aftermarket creations ahead of the Las Vegas expo.
It's hard to tell what kind of exterior changes have been made to the tC, although Scion says the cabin now boasts a 32-inch monitor, as well as a heavily revamped stereo. As you can see, it will say "Slayer" on the door, in the band's stylized script.

Toyota GT86 GT4 racer is ready for UK competition

Tue, 05 Feb 2013

It's about time we saw someone cook up a legitimate race version of the delectable Toyota GT86, and now it looks as if GPRM has done just that. The Buckingham-based race engineering team has built the creation you see here, complete with a turbocharged 2.0-liter, direct-injection four-cylinder boxer cooked up by Nicholson McLaren Engines. The team says the new mill delivers between 360 and 400 horsepower to the rear wheels depending on final testing, which is a sight bit more than the 197 horses the naturally aspirated stock mill offers.
The car will compete in GT4 events, including the Avon Tyres British GT Championship. Technically, the GPRM effort isn't factory backed, but the team says the effort "has the blessing of Toyota Great Britain." How could it not? You can check out the brief press release below below, and be sure to take a closer look at the machine in our gallery.

Two new RWD Toyota sports cars to join FR-S?

Fri, 09 Aug 2013

Toyota as we know it could become a thing of the past. According to Australian site Car Advice, the Japanese brand known for bland cruisers like the Camry and Corolla is preparing to bring two new rear-drive cars to market that would slot above and below the Scion-badged FR-S. This is very, very good news.
Car Advice spoke to the GT86/FR-S' chief engineer, Tatsuya Tada, who claimed, "Akio Toyoda always says to me, Toyota sports car [family] should be three sports car brothers. 86 is in the middle." The oldest "brother" would be the spiritual successor to the Supra, even if it doesn't wear that name. Tada is in charge of that project, while a sub-GT86 project is being headed-up elsewhere.
Tada refused to comment on names (CA specifically mentions MR2 and Celica) for the new small car, but did say that, "Yes it is rear-wheel drive and that's Toyota's strong position - Toyota sports car must be rear-wheel drive." Perhaps the juiciest bit of information obtained from Tada's interview with Car Advice was his hinting that both new sports cars would be joint ventures, like the GT86/FR-S/Subaru BRZ triplets. Tada wouldn't say who Toyota was in bed with on the smaller model, but did mention that the Supra would be a product of the world's largest automaker's partnership with BMW.
