Charleston, South Carolina, United States

Here is the rundown. My girlfriend has wanted a 60 series since she was a child, about a few months ago that dream was becoming a reality. We searched for 3 months before deciding on this 1989. We had it fully inspected at a Toyota Dealer and it came back with a clean report and pulled the trigger and had it shipped here. It was a Georgia car since brand new, garage kept, and has a ton of records that reach very far back. Fast forward and the girl that lusted realizes she cant handle not having leather, IFS, sunroof etc.

1989 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ62
275,000+ documented miles, original paint, engine and trans.
Completely Rust Free - Literally 0 rust.

Work we have done: Basically a freshen up.

Immaculate service records down to oil changes, and more going back to 1990. Original bill of sales from dealer, factory car phone install agreement and tons of others. Rear main seal, front knucles, timing covers, oil changes, brakes, alternator etc etc etc.

Major work done in the past 30,000 -
Front knuckles fully rebuilt via Toyota dealer ($1497)
-Starter, radiator($396), brake pads, timing cover seal, and more

Receipts in the file from just the past 25,000 miles total= $9300

Cosmetics: Super clean inside and out. We looked at over 10 of these before deciding "Big Red" was the one.  The paint appears to be all original with no signs of any prior accidents. It is the original Toyota Freeborn Red single stage paint. Body is completely rust free, and has no bondo or any other bodywork. All lines are straight.  Chrome is in great shape as well as all glass and gaskets. Interior is in great shape with no major stains, and no odors. Carpet is in good shape with new all weather floor mats. Headliner is in excellent shape. Factory roof rack has no hidden rust and is in excellent shape. Undercarriage is clean and rust free. 

Mechanics: This FJ is ready for that long road trip, or to go camping. Starts right up with no hesitation or drama. No smoke or choking. Accelerates perfectly, and shifts through all gears nicely, and the kickdown works under heavy accel. All electronics work, including all gauges and interior and exterior lights. Power locks, power windows, wipers all work perfect. Truck has cold A/C and hot heat. Truck never overheats or has any issues on long highway drives, or sitting in stop and go traffic at 101 degree temps (We sat in beach traffic this weekend for 45 minutes enjoying the A/C and stereo). Brakes are strong and true. Powersteering makes no groans, and does not leak. As mentioned above the truck will leave a drop of oil in a driveway if sitting, but never requires topping off, it is minimal. New tires with less than 5,000 miles. Truck is very much "turnkey" or drive it home ready.

Summary: 
The good- Very clean inside and out, immaculate service records, shifts smooth, can go 70+mph :), cold A/C, tons of records, NO RUST, doesn't burn oil, never abused or offroaded, great stereo.

The bad- A few dings here and there, typical 62 seat tear on drivers side but was quoted $120 to fix, will leave a dime size oil drop if sitting, left rear window is off track.

Toyota reveals new customizable Camatte57s kid-friendly concepts

Tue, 11 Jun 2013

Toyota plans to follow up last year's kid-friendly Camatte concept with two new versions: the Camatte57s and Camatte57s Sport (right). Like the original Camatte, the two new concepts will make their debut at the International Tokyo Toy Show, which is happening this weekend.
Not much has changed with these two new Camatte models. Like their predecessor, they both feature detachable body panels (the count is up to 57), a 1+2 seating array and reconfigurable pedals that allow children to operate the gas and brakes while Mom or Dad steers. What is new is an open-top roadster design that even eschews doors in favor of easier ingress/egress. They look like something a tourist would rent to get around a Hawaiian island, though we dig the distinct personalities of each model's design.
Both cars are all-electric, though Toyota hasn't provided any other specifications, like what makes the Sport model sporty besides its more aggressive body panels and silver, black and red color scheme. That's just as well, as neither concept, like the original Camatte before them, is street legal.

Toyota increasing Yaris Hybrid production to 222,000 this year in France

Mon, Feb 24 2014

More fuel economy means more factory workers and more production for Toyota's most popular model in Europe. That simple equation explains why the Japanese automaker is boosting annual production of its gas- and hybrid-powered Yaris compact vehicles at its French factory. The new number will be about 222,000, a 15 percent increase. To do that, Toyota will need to add about 500 workers to bring its total there to more than 4,000, UK's The Green Car Website says. Vive le Toyota! Toyota updated the European Yaris in the middle of 2011 and added a hybrid version later that year, the model has many fans across the pond. It helps that they hybrid is rated (using the friendlier European standards) at a whopping 81 miles per gallon, a tremendous number for a car that costs approximately $26,000. Toyota could soon have a bit more room in the small hybrid segment, since it was reported recently that Honda would discontinue European sales of its Insight and CR-Z hybrids soon. That decision was made easier because of increasing competition from Toyota, which boosted hybrid sales in Europe last year by 43 percent. In contrast, both the CR-Z and Insight experienced more than a 60-percent plunge in European sales in 2013.

Sports 800 is a progenitor of Toyota performance

Tue, 18 Nov 2014

There's an automotive axiom that claims it's more fun to drive a slow car fast, than a fast car slow. If that's the case, then pushing a Toyota Sports 800 around must be one of the most exhilarating experiences behind the wheel in the world. With just 800cc of displacement from a two-cylinder boxer engine, the focus is on finesse over outright speed. Still, it's a fantastic page in Toyota's performance history, and Petrolicious takes a ride with a man who owns a meticulously restored 1967 example in its latest video.
The Sports 800 used the classic cost-saving strategy in the auto industry of taking parts from a standard model in the lineup and modifying it into a sports car. In this case that meant borrowing the engine from the plebian Toyota Publica, beefing it up for more power and clothing the whole thing a in beautifully shaped, wind-tunnel-honed body.
The look of these lithe, targa roadsters is the exact opposite of the rather dull styling sometimes associated with Toyota today. Everywhere you look there are louvers, vents or curves to draw the eye. Check out the latest Petrolicious video for a detailed look at the history of this rare model that's largely unknown on this side of the Pacific.
