This vehicle is located in the San Jose/Santa Clara region of California better known as the South Bay or the Silicon Valley, Please be aware that the vehicle must be towed from the property even though it has been registered with the DMV and I have the paper work to verify it. The vehicle "DID NOT" pass smog so the tags even though paid for had lapsed because it did not pass the smog within the 90 day time limit the DMV gives.

From what I was told by the DMV and from what I understand the new owner if the wish to register it would only need to pay the reinstatement fee for the tags not the full amount. But I am not the DMV or a legal person so you will need to contact the DMV to find out what fees are due to get your tags. The vehicle is being sold "AS IS" and is considered non operable even though it had been driven until 2months ago when it failed to pass smog. Below is a list of items that my friend made up to show that these New parts have been replaced within the past 4 months of the vehicle running.

Here is what it entails; I am "PARTING OUT" whole car only not piece by piece a 1987 Toyota Camry 180k miles, I replaced over $1,500 in new parts not counting labor over the past four months. The reason for no labor charges is since I'm disabled I had the work done not by a dealership but by student mechanics at CET automotive training school in downtown San Jose. This saved me a lot of money since I could not afford the dealer prices for repairs. The car is in somewhat running condition. What I mean by that is up until a couple of weeks ago I drove the vehicle a few times a week to my Dr. appointments but the driver’s side front bearing went out and I just couldn't afford to throw more good money after bad and put any more parts on this car. I purchased a newer used vehicle and just want to sell this to someone who may want to repair it or use the new parts on another Toyota they own. I just want to recoup some of the money I invested.

Here are some of the items replaced in the past four months, Sway bar, sway bar bushings, sway bar mount plate, outer tie rod ends, rotor, brake pads, rebuilt calipers, new water pump, Tires are good more than half tread is left on it, 4 new shock assemblies, new shock mounting kits, lower control arms, lower control arm bushings, new ignition assembly with coil and cap, new fuel control solenoid, new spark plug wires, new spark plugs, fuseable link, brand new starter, new timing belt, new serpentine belt, New water pump, new thermo control module, new oil and filter, flushed radiator, charged air condition unit which is really cold and multiple miscellaneous items like head lights, break lights, vacuum hoses, water hoses etc.

The engine runs and so does the transmission but it started acting funny where it took a few seconds after I hit the gas for it to take off so not sure if the transmission is all that good for a long time a mechanic said it was just probably an actuator switch. The engine turns over and runs but with the bearing on the wheel now making noise I had to have it towed back to the house and it sits in my driveway. So you will need to have it towed as it can't be driven in the condition it is in. There is a little damage on the passenger side door and the front panel from a jerk who came to close to me but other than that the interior is not torn or ripped and everything works including the stereo system. It may sound like I know what I'm talking about but I don't I had a friend write all the parts that were replaced for me.

I'm asking only $800.00 O.B.O. I’m disabled and I live on a fixed income and I feel this is a fair offer. I am losing money on it but would like to pay my family member back some of the money they loaned me for my newer used car. Sometimes you just need to cut your losses and move forward.

2014 Toyota Highlander

Tue, 17 Dec 2013

Midsize crossovers like the Toyota Highlander tend to play a thankless role in the life of today's modern family.
That's really too bad. With the ability to hold several hyperactive kids and tons of cargo while keeping everyone safe and comfortable in all kinds of climate conditions day in and day out, they're true heroes in the lives of hundreds of thousands of families across the country. Yet their car-apathetic owners often immediately forget about them as soon as their work is done. And nearly all midsize crossovers are thoroughly ignored by enthusiasts whose eyes begin to glaze over at first mention of the phrase "third row."
Toyota is looking to soften the blow somewhat by giving its midsize crossover, the Highlander, a big redesign for the 2014 model year. With a bold new look, updated suspension and a refreshed interior focused on comfort and convenience, Toyota aims to make the Highlander sportier to drive and more striking in appearance, because, as the marketing team explains, "families are going places and they want to get there in style."

Toyota confirms i-Road electric trike for production

Tue, 08 Oct 2013

The wacky, three-wheeled Toyota i-Road we saw in Geneva earlier this year will be heading to production. But before you run down to your local Toyota dealer looking for one of these all-electric "personal mobility" vehicles, chances are, you'll never actually see one unless you visit Japan.
Announced at the Combined Exhibition of Advanced Technologies (CEATEC) expo last week, Toyota said that the i-Road would be used as a part of the Ha:Mo car-sharing system in Japan. Weighing in at around 661 pounds, with a 28-mile-per-hour top speed and a two-passenger seating arrangement, the i-Road seems more like a fully enclosed scooter than a car, but it does offer a 30-mile driving range and has a nifty articulating front suspension that leans into corners. As for Ha:Mo, Toyota says that the number of cars in the program will increase from 10 prior to October 1 to 100 by the middle of this month, and the number of stations will almost double from 13 up to 21. Toyota has more details about the car and Ha:Mo in the press release posted below.

Toyota reaches $1.2B unintended acceleration settlement in criminal probe

Wed, 19 Mar 2014

UPDATE: Just like that, Toyota has released an official statement confirming its $1.2-million dollar settlement with the US Attorney's Office. Our story has been updated to reflect this development and the automaker's official statement has been added below.
Toyota has reached a settlement over the criminal probe into its unintended acceleration problems, and the outcome is more expensive than first expected. The Japanese automaker has agreed to pay $1.2 billion to close the investigation among other settlement terms. The criminal inquiry focused on whether the company kept information from regulators and how it handled drivers' complaints about the problems, according to the sources.
Between 2009 and 2010, Toyota ended up recalling over 10 million vehicles worldwide over sudden acceleration fears. Fixes include modifying floor mats, gas pedals, and installing brake override software on affected models. In addition, Toyota made the latter standard on all of its new vehicles.
