1980 Toyota Celica Sunchaser GT
Convertible

Up for auction. Very rare, 1980 Toyota Celica Sunchaser GT 5 Speed. #414 of 500 built in 1980. Approximately 2,000 total units ever built by the Griffith Co. over 3 years. Toyota commissioned the Griffith Co to build a convertible / targa top in an era when federal regulations prohibited auto manufacturers from building them. 
Now to my car, Florida born and raised and rust free top to bottom. Beautiful yellow paint that is not original and appears to be 10 years old with no signs of rust or any prior rust repair. Interior is in great shape and mostly original with the exception of seat inserts. Dash and console free of any cracks or damage. All gauges, clock, and factory radio in working order as well as ice cold air. The odometer shows 14,658 miles which I believe to be in excess of mechanically limits based on the extensive receipts that accompanied the car. Both the targa top and convertible rear top are in above average condition showing some signs of repair around the seals. Original targa top storage bag and boot cover in trunk. Both bumpers, all lights and wheels in excellent condition. Tires are mismatched. Mechanically car is very sound, starts and runs super, with no noises or signs of smoke from the 20r 4 cylinder engine and the 5 speed transmission shifts smoothly.
I purchased this car from a Toyota Dealer who had it in his warehouse for nearly 10 years. In addition to having a great car, the car comes with some amazing documents including service records, original owners manuals, and most of all an original 3 ring binder provided exclusively to Toyota Dealers. The binder details the whole history of the Sunchaser from inception to delivery to the select Toyota Dealers. Binder includes details of the fabrication, complete parts lists and all marketing and advertising information including the cover of Motor Trend Magazine February 1980 along with many other press releases. I have to believe the info in this binder adds priceless value to this car.
Bid with confidence. This car is as represented with a reserve well below its value.

Toyota begins shipping Le Yaris to America

Fri, 17 May 2013

Our tiniest Toyota (Scion iQ notwithstanding) is about to get a little French flair. The Japanese automaker announced Thursday that its Toyota Motor Manufacturing France facility would begin building Yaris models destined for North America - specifically, the United States, Puerto Rico and Canada. This will mark the first time in history that Toyota has exported vehicles to North America from Europe.
Initially, Toyota will export roughly 25,000 Yaris models to North American markets from France each year. In order to handle this additional production, Toyota Motor Manufacturing France has invested 10 million euro into its French facility.
Despite being somewhat of a snooze-fest (it's a car!), the Yaris carries on in North America with a 106-horsepower 1.5-liter four-cylinder engine, with prices starting at $14,370 for the three-door and $15,395 for the five-door, not including $795 for destination.

Honda, Nissan and Mazda recalling 3 million vehicles for airbag inflators

Mon, 23 Jun 2014

Three million more vehicles can be added to the worldwide tally to be repaired for the faulty airbag inflators supplied by Takata. Honda, Nissan, and Mazda have all issued recalls to replace the bad part, including about 1.2 million of them in North America. NHTSA has been investigating all three companies, plus Chrysler and Toyota, for potentially affected vehicles.
Honda is recalling roughly 1.02 million Civic, CR-V, Odyssey and Element models In North America, built between April 2000 and October 2002. Mazda needs to repair 14,794 units of the RX-8 and Mazda6, and Nissan has 228,000 vehicles in North America to be fixed.
Chrysler is also starting what it calls a "regional field action" to replace the inflators in the 2006 Dodge Charger, according to a company spokesperson. The company says that it has not yet found the problem in any of its vehicles, but it's being done "out of an abundance of caution." The final number of Chargers affected will be announced later this week.

Toyota recalling 342k Tacomas due to faulty seatbelt pretensioners

Wed, 07 Aug 2013

Toyota is voluntarily recalling 342,000 Tacoma Access Cab pickups, produced between 2004 and 2011. The wide-ranging recall is due to faults in the screws that attach the belt pre-tensioner to the belt retractor. There are concerns that the screws can loosen themselves over time, especially if the access door is opened and closed with too much force. It's important to note that the recall only covers the driver and front passenger seat, and is limited to just the Access Cab trucks. Other body styles aren't affected.
If the screws come loose, the pre-tensioner and retractor spring could separate from the belt entirely, which would be bad news in a crash. There's no mention of injuries or accidents due to the faulty pre-tensioners. Owners affected by the recall will be notified soon, and asked to come in for recall service.
