1985 Toyota Celica Gt Amazing Condition 5 Spd. Fully Documented 117k Miles on 2040-cars
Bradenton, Florida, United States
|
This car is the nicest 82-85 Celica I've ever seen (non-Supra) and it just about never made it to Ebay. Here is a video of the car right after I got it http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4gYh5_frYi4
And another video of when it was mostly complete I bought this car a short time ago sight unseen from a junkyard, I was going to part it to use parts for another Celica. When this car arrived on a tow truck, it was much better than I expected, dirty and faded outside but when I opened the door, I found a flawless interior and every piece of documentation in the glove box. It was far better than the car I was working on. I immediately called the towing company and inquired about the paperwork for the car, they told me that they had never filed for a certificate of destruction and for an extra fee I could get a clear title to the car, which I did without hesitation. This car was bought brand new at Sutherlin Toyota in Clearwater, Florida. It is a nicely equipped Celica, 5spd. A/C, cruise control, power sunroof, and factory rear louvers. It has been completely repainted, it has only 117K miles on it and it absolutely drives like a brand new car.
I will walk you around this car and describe it as I know it.
Exterior When I got this car, it was dirty, faded and had a dent on the side. It has been repainted in the correct Super Red color. It had one dent which was professionally repaired prior to paint. It has zero rust anywhere. All of the lights, plastic, etc. are near perfect. The tires are perfect Bridgestones. The wheels could use some minor detailing and recleared but there are no major flaws. The car looks great, like a new Celica sitting on a lot. Interior This car was obviously garage kept and it had window tint, including a tinted windshield, which has all been removed revealing a perfectly flawless and crack free interior. Almost every single piece of every part of the interior is like new, including the factory Toyota floormats and the center armrest. The original cargo cover is intact and works perfectly. Even the original stereo/cassette deck sounds good. Non smoker car. It could use new sunvisors and that's it. Mechanical It runs like brand new, drives like brand new, stops great. No leaks, no issues of any kind. Every single thing on this car works perfectly except the drivers side power mirror. Every light, buzzer, and other accessory works perfectly including the power antenna. It also has a brand new Ac compressor and a brand new set of fuel injectors.
Overall This is an amazing car that was very near to getting crushed. It's cool because it's not a Supra and it's not a GT-S convertible, in my opinion it's harder to find a car like this one and this one is the perfect blend of luxury, options, style and rock solid reliability. This particular car has definitely been well cared for throughout a majority of it's life. Why it was in the junkyard or a police auction, who knows. I believe it was a seizure for drugs or DUI. There are no signs of flood or accident damage and I have a clear Florida title for it. Of all of the Toyotas and cars in general I've messed with in my life, this one is by far the neatest and has the coolest story with it. If you have any questions, please call me at 941-720-0300, my name is Jason. |

2014 Toyota Aygo marks the spot [w/video]
Tue, 04 Mar 2014Following the leaked pictures we showed you yesterday, we have the full battery of images and info of the all-new Toyota Aygo, in addition to our gallery of live photos from the floor of the Geneva Motor Show.
Like its cousins from Peugeot and Citroën, the Aygo foregoes a diesel engine in favor of a highly efficient gas powerplant. The 1.0-liter naturally aspirated 4-cylinder turns out 68 horsepower and 70 pound-feet of torque. When it hits the market, it'll be with either a five-speed manual transmission or a five-speed, X-Shift automated manual. The former will help the Aygo return 57.3 miles per gallon and hit 62 miles per hour in 14.2 seconds. Opting for the X-Shift variant will net drivers 56 mpg, with 62 arriving in a leisurely 15.5 seconds.
We'll admit, aside from the fuel efficiency, there's nothing terribly great about those numbers. Still, with its compact dimensions - it's only 136 inches long - and a curb weight of no more than 2,000 pounds, it should prove tossable in the bends.
Toyota gives dealers permission to drop Scion, shows them FR-S droptop, Juke rival first
Mon, 19 Aug 2013We recently heard that Toyota could be looking to shrink its network of Scion dealerships, and now Automotive News is reporting that the automaker has officially given its dealers the green light to dump Scion without any penalties. Currently, Scion has about 1,000 dealers, yet our report from August 8 quotes an industry analyst as suggesting a healthier figure would be between 350 and 500 outlets. But before its current dealers make a decision on whether or not to get rid of the youth-oriented brand, Toyota also showed off a couple potential future products in the pipeline.
The FT-86 Open Concept shown above was revealed back in March at the Geneva Motor Show, and AN says that an FR-S convertible was driven on stage at a recent national Toyota dealer meeting in Atlanta. There has still been no definitive word one way or another as to whether the droptop model will be built, but it could be a good way to follow up to the popular FR-S coupe. Another possible future product is a subcompact crossover, which was shown in drawing form at the meeting, presumably aimed at small CUVs like the Nissan Juke and the upcoming Honda CUV based on the Fit, a model recently previewed by the automaker's Urban SUV concept.
Andrew Gilleland is new VP of Scion, Murtha moves to Toyota
Fri, Sep 25 2015Scion is getting some fresh blood at the top as Andrew Gilleland (pictured above) becomes the new vice president to take over for Doug Murtha. Gilleland is no stranger to the division, and served as the national field operations manager early in the brand's launch. Murtha moves to take leadership of corporate strategy and planning for Toyota in North America. "Now it's Andrew's charge to spread the message of the style and value of the iM and iA, as well as a third new vehicle that will be added to the lineup," Toyota division group vice president Bill Fay said in the announcement. Gilleland moves up from being general manager of Toyota's central Atlantic regional office. He takes the reins at Scion at a potential turning point for the division. Sales volume for the year through August is down 22.1 percent to 32,691 vehicles, but some big changes are afoot. The long-lived xB is likely about to bow out, and the brand is launching two new products with the iM and iA. They're getting some celebrity advertising, too. Spy shots also suggest the FR-S might get a refresh soon. Plus, the third model Fay teases is expected to be a compact crossover, possibly with styling inspiration from the Toyota C-HR concept. Scion could get a big boost by having an entry in that booming segment. New Products, Previous Player - Scion Introduces New Vice President Andrew Gilleland Returns to Youth Brand September 24, 2015 TORRANCE, Calif. (Sept. 24, 2015) – In the early days of Scion, when xAs and xBs were flying out of dealers' showrooms, Andrew Gilleland was the National Field Operations Manager for the youth brand. He was responsible for working with dealers to ensure they embraced the new products and processes Scion offered. Now, Scion is entering its teen years, and Gilleland is back as Vice President of Scion, once again encouraging dealers to sell its new models and investigate new methods to attract young buyers. "Scion has sold nearly a million vehicles since I left in 2005 and I'm excited to be back leading this team," said Gilleland. "The iM 5-door hatchback and iA sports sedan arrived at dealerships earlier this month and the response has been great.
