PRICE SEEMS A BIT STEEP, BUT READ ON. I ASSURE YOU, IT'S WORTH IT. PLEASE READ EVERYTHING BEFORE INQUIRING! This car is still my daily driver, registered under my name and inspected. She's still running and miles will increase. I had an offer for this car by a gentleman back in June for 1800. The only reason why the deal fell through is because he wanted the new struts installed in the car at the time of purchase and I could not accommodate his request. But upon test driving and assessing, the car was basically worth the offer. Also, more money has gone into the car since that time. I bought a car better suited for the winter months so now I am selling this car. It's a great little car, and has been very good to me. Absolutely reliable. Everything I did for this car since I took ownership back in December 3, 2012 was basically long overdue maintenance. Otherwise, no mechanical repairs were necessary nor are they now. I can't list all the things done. I have a meticulous service history for the car. They're for record purposes only as many jobs were DIYs. The major jobs however were done by a competent mechanic. I really don't drive very much, and although I have had the car for 10 months, I have only put in 6000 miles on the car. So all the repairs done on this car are recent, with most of the benefits being transferred to the new owner. This car needs nothing. Just the few big items I will list here, but keep in mind that this car is solid inside and out and much more was actually done: 1. Timing belt, tensioner, drive belt, and water pump all replaced within the last 6 months, with only 3000 miles on them. 2. New struts, all 4. Complete assembly replacement. So new springs, mounts, boots... you name it. 3. New linkages, front and rear 4. New tie rods, inner and outer 5. New coolant, complete with flush 6. New transmission gear oil. AMSOIL 75W90 7. MANY MANY MORE. 8. NEW CLUTCH!!! much lighter than the original OEM and grabs straight off the floor! 9. New mounts, engine passenger side and transmission side. 10. New tires! all 4. TOYO - Balanced and good to go! Nitrogen filled. 11. Alignments done regularly. 12. Oil changes done on the dot. This car doesn't need to be jacked for oil changes. So very convenient! currently running on Valvoline Maxlife. Excellent oil! The car isn't pretty, but it's an absolutely solid car. EVERYTHING works! and I mean everything! no blown speakers (upgraded Kenwood unit with all 4 matching Kenwood speakers. 3 way units) and all windows go up and down. (manually) And every dash lights, dome lights, AC, everything. Work like they should. Heat is awesome! it can get so hot during winter inside the car I've had back seat passengers complain about the heat! The AC is ice cold! Cons: Could do with replacement of both the front and rear engine mounts as well since they're also old and were not replaced with the other two mounts (Note, this is not essential. It's merely a recommendation). I never quite got around to it. But they're 25 dollar parts and a few hour DIYs. The result is occasionally, especially when cold and the engine has just started, there is a little bit of vibration. Other times it's absolutely smooth inside the car. The shift is a bit rough feeling as well when cold. That's cause the mounts that are new are doing all the work and they're not that pliant when cold. But this is in no way a mechanical fault on the car. I had the car driven by mechanics who said this is one of the smoothest and best running 20 year old car they've seen. My personal mechanic said that he wishes everyone looked after their car like I did. At the time of the drive I was told that the transmission mount would need to be replaced. But the right side engine mount was done as an elective. The other two mounts if replaced would probably make this car drive like new. And there is a whiff of gas due to a corroding filler neck pipe. It's a 65 dollar part and a 2 hour DIY. I could do this myself, but never got around to it since again, doesn't affect the car. In fact, only smells when the car is full to the brim in gas. Otherwise, no smell and runs perfect. Burns around .5-1.5 quarts of oil in 3000 miles. VERY normal for these cars. They all do it. And it's actually normal for cars to burn a bit of oil so this isn't unusual but I thought I'd mention it. No smoke though, at least nothing that would be considered out of the ordinary. The car's engine is still smooth and it seems to be getting better on the oil consumption since switching to Valvoline Maxlife. Lastly, paint isn't in the best shape. But the car is solid. I did what I could to prevent further oxidation and aging of the paint and metal. The car is very very clean and doesn't look too bad. I've put a ton of cash in to the car during my ownership (Well over 2000 dollars). In fact, I'm losing money selling this car. But i need a better car for the winter. I just wanna recoup some of the money I sunk into this car. Trust me, even at this price I'm losing money so don't expect to get this car for nothing. I am practically giving the car away for free. I just want some of the repair money back. That is all. I don't want anyone to think this car is unreliable. It's a TOYOTA COROLLA! these things run till you die first! and the only reason why so much money was spent was due to timing belt and clutch replacement! big cost there! but the car never stalled, broke down, over heated or left me stranded. EVER. She took me to Connecticut and back in a single day, no rest. No problems. Again, this car was good enough to receive a 1800 dollar offer. I'm sure you will appreciate this car. It will move fast! So if you're in the market for a very well kept cheap little car that will SAVE YOU MONEY GUARANTEED then don't let this little gem get away! I didn't list all the things I've done for this car! Trust me, it's worth it! Will throw in Haynes manual with car. And air filter, as well as oil filter. The car isn't pretty, but it is VERY CLEAN. I have applied clear coat to keep the car from rusting further. Currently the car has no rust, is clean and has no problems whatsoever. I'm selling this car because I got a better and newer car. When I think of selling it after only 10 months of use with all the money and repairs done, I feel like I want to keep the car but frankly can't because it would be impractical to insure 2 cars for just me. So come on over and see this little gem! Exterior isn't great, but interior is MINT and super clean! The car gets around 26 mpg in the town. Up to 34 MPG highway. I typically got 32 however. And this car is dirt cheap to insure! Reach me at 8-four-5 five-4-five 55-two-5 Please no spam, scam or paypal deals, or cashier's checks or whatever. This is a cheap car. So come with cash in hand and inspect the car yourself. This is a great little car and I promise you that you won't be disappointed! |

2017 Tokyo Motor Show | Mega Gallery
Wed, Oct 25 2017The 2017 Tokyo Motor Show has been a big and busy one. It's also had machinery ranging from beautiful to bizarre. But there's been something for everyone. Companies such as Honda and Subaru brought performance oriented vehicles, Toyota showcased a wide array of funky and practical concepts, and Yamaha even broke away from motorcycles to do another car concept. You can check all of these vehicles out, and more in the galleries below. 2018 Honda Gold Wing: View 5 Photos Honda Neo Sports Cafe Concept: View 5 Photos Honda Riding Assist-e Concept: View 7 Photos Honda Sports EV Concept: View 5 Photos Honda Super Cub: View 3 Photos Isuzu FD-SI and Elf EV: View 9 Photos Lexus LS+ Concept: View 18 Photos Mazda Kai Concept: View 18 Photos Mazda Vision Coupe Concept: View 15 Photos Mitsubishi e-Evolution Concept: View 8 Photos Nissan IMx Concept: View 29 Photos Nissan Leaf Nismo Concept: View 8 Photos Subaru Viziv Performance Concept: View 12 Photos Toyota Century and Crown: View 7 Photos Toyota Concept-i Series: View 16 Photos Toyota GR HV SPORTS Concept: View 6 Photos Toyota Tj Cruiser: View 12 Photos Yamaha Concepts (Cross Hub, MOTOROiD, MWC-4, Motobot): View 5 Photos Related Video: Tokyo Motor Show Honda Isuzu Lexus Mazda Mitsubishi Nissan Subaru Toyota
BMW-Toyota sports car heading towards Tokyo debut
Mon, 20 May 2013Earlier this year, BMW and Toyota confirmed a four-part joint venture mostly focusing on increasing improving vehicle efficiency using fuel cells, lightweight materials and better battery technology. Also tucked into the announcement was a "feasibility study" for a shared platform to underpin a future midsize "sports vehicle."
In terms of the latter, it seems that things have stepped up from the feasibility stage to the conceptual stage, as Motor Trend reports we could see a pair of new sports car concepts debut later this year in at the Tokyo Motor Show. There isn't much information about the new program, but the article suggests the sports cars could be all-wheel drive hybrids, with electric motors powering the front wheels and a gas engine powering the rear wheels. While a partnership between Toyota and BMW might not lend itself to a catchy portmanteau like "Toyobaru," here's hoping it will bear fruit that is as exciting as the ones produced by the Toyota/Subaru tie up.
Volvo, Kia and BYD duke it out in the finals for World Car of 2024
Mon, Feb 26 2024Three electric vehicles — none produced by an American manufacturer — will compete next month for the title of 2024 World Car of the Year, it was announced Monday. The finalists are the Kia EV9, the Volvo EX30 and the BYD Seal (shown above). The latter two are built in China. The three top finalists in five other categories were also named at the Geneva Motor Show in Switzerland. The winners in all six categories will be revealed live during an awards ceremony at the New York International Auto Show on March 27. This year marks the 20th year of the World Car Awards and the partnership with the New York show. Besides car of the year, the other finalists are: Electric vehicle: BMW i5, Kia EV9, Volvo EX30; Luxury car: BMW 5 Series/i5, Mercedes Benz E-Class, Mercedes Benz EQE SUV; Performance car: BMW M2, BMW XM, Hyundai Ionia 5 N; Urban car: BYD Dolphin, Lexus LBX, Volvo EX30; World Car Design: Ford Bronco, Ferrari Purosangue, Toyota Prius. Only Ford among U.S. companies has an entry in the final selections, and only in one category, design, for the Bronco. BMW has four vehicles in the finals, Volvo has three, Kia and Mercedes have two each. BYD from China has two entries as well. The Seal went on sale in in its home market in 2022 and is now available in most of the rest of the world. The BYD Co. (which stands for Build Your Dreams) has surpassed Tesla to become the worldÂ’s biggest maker of electric vehicles, and has its sights set on the U.S. The selection process for World Cars involves 100-plus automotive journalists from 29 countries who vote, as they review and test-drive the eligible vehicles for the 2024 awards. Their journey is captured virtually on World Car TV. Design/Style Geneva Motor Show BMW Ferrari Ford Hyundai Kia Lexus Mercedes-Benz Toyota Volvo Best Cars World Car of the Year
