Rare 1992 Toyota Supra Turbo *no Reserve* on 2040-cars
Very Rare practically all original Gray Metallic 1992 Toyota Supra Turbo Targa with only 113k original miles. This is a 5-speed manual transmission 3.0L Inline 6 Cylinder Turbo. Only 1193 of the 1992s were produced, and only 1174 being in the United States. This car is very rare car being fully loaded while including the original window sticker as proof of the options. Some of the rare options are a full leather interior package, and an extremely rare sub-woofer. In 1992 Toyota changed the leather interior packaged cars to a nice dark grey (almost black). The sub-woofer was also only offered in 1992. The exterior of the car is in very good shape a solid 9/10. You will know this car has been garaged most of its life when you see it. The interior is in equally great shape. The motor has recently had the head gasket replaced and fitted with ARP studs to once and for all end the head gasket issue that plagues these cars. *Please note that the gasket in this car was never blown prior to the new gasket* During the head gasket change a multitude of maintenance parts have been replaced like the water pump, plugs, ignition wires, all the gaskets from the head up including new turbo gaskets, thermostat, etc..The timing was done at 100,000 miles (13,000 miles ago). This motor runs very well and very strong, as well as the turbo. The drive-train is also in good shape. The previous owner whom I bought the car from was a car dealer in Texas, he used the car as a personal car for a short period of time. During the time he owned it he changed out the gauge cluster bulbs to a red color. This can be reversed to the original color without much effort. The car is on a rebuilt title. To the best of my knowledge Texas is very strict on branding titles, and will automatically brand it a rebuilt/salvage title just for going through an auction. The car has been in an accident many years ago, and the previous owner purchased it at an auction (I'm assuming a dealership only auction). So that hints to me why its a rebuilt title. Because the car drives amazing and straight you would honestly never know it was a rebuilt title, nor would anyone else who will ask you about it. This is a solid car and I wouldn't be asking what I'm asking for it if I didn't know how nice this car looks and drives. I hate to sell it but its time to move on. If you have any questions at all, please feel free to call or text Jacob @ 870-866-0319 I'm available between 10am-12pm MST. |

Dutch Toyota dealer has plans for old Prius batteries as solar backup
Thu, May 1 2014A Toyota dealer in the Netherlands is looking to the sky for power. The Louwman Hague Toyota dealership has put almost 1,000 solar panels on the roof, and there might be some Prius hybrid batteries involved. Our Dutch isn't as good as it could be and our questions to Toyota in the US haven't turned up any definitive answers, but there is some mention that these solar panels are will someday be feeding power into a bank of Toyota hybrid batteries. The 1,000 panels make up 1,600 square meters, about the size of 4.5 IMAX movie screens, and is the largest in the area. They generate around a quarter of a megawatt of energy [as our readers point out, this is what the translation says, but it doesn't make sense, so we think it might mean a quarter MW of power a day], which is enough to power 80 homes. The excess electricity will go into the battery packs that have (possibly) already been used in a Prius or another of the company's hybrid. There are many examples of automotive batteries being tested as stationary back-up power sources, and maybe this Dutch solution can be used as a guide when Toyota sets up its new US headquarters in sunny Texas.
Toyota previews next Lexus RX with Tokyo-bound JDM Harrier
Wed, 13 Nov 2013The Lexus RX shares much with the Toyota Highlander, but its more direct counterpart is the Toyota Harrrier. Never heard of it? That's because Toyota only sells it at home in Japan, and now it's revealed a new one. So if the Harrier is essentially a Toyota-badged version of the RX, then what's the big deal, you ask? The big deal is that the new Harrier which leaked in July, set to debut at the Tokyo Motor Show next week and which you see here isn't quite the same as the Lexus, and those differences could (and in most cases likely will) make their way over to the RX as well.
For starters, the styling is different. Granted that the Lexus version will almost certainly get a spindle-shaped grille, but even so, the Harrier's nose seems to protrude further than the RX's and the headlamps are a notably different shape. The greenhouse is also a different shape, coming to a sharper point at the back, and the mirrors are fixed to the A-pillar not to the door panel. The taillamps are revised, the tailgate has a new profile and there's a pseudo-diffuser at the bottom of the rear bumper. Subtle changes, to be sure, but then Toyota and Lexus are known for their evolutionary approach to styling. The interior has apparently undergone some updates as well, with a more dynamically styled dashboard, a more symmetrical center stack and different seats, steering wheel, door panels... the works. The infotainment display screen has also moved further down from its position in the current RX.
Toyota will offer the new Harrier with a 2.0-liter four mated to a CVT and driving either the front wheels or all four, and a hybrid setup with a 2.5-liter married to a 140-hp electric motor. The RX is offered here with a 3.5-liter V6 either on its own or with an electric assist. We wouldn't expect Lexus to go swapping the larger engines for the smaller ones, at least not for the US market. There's plenty more to the Harrier, of course, than the similarities and differences to the Lexus RX, and if you're buying a premium crossover in Japan, you can delve into the full details in the press release below, together with the images in the gallery above.
Toyota Camry re-earns CR 'Recommended' rating following crash tests
Thu, 19 Dec 2013All is right again in the Toyota kingdom. The Japanese manufacturer's bread-and-butter sedan, the Camry, has been put back on Consumer Reports' "Recommended" vehicle list, following improved performance in the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety's crash testing.
You'll recall that the 2012 and 2013 Camry were infamously booted from the list due to "Poor" ratings in IIHS' notoriously tough small-overlap crash testing. Toyota vowed - just last week actually - to fix the ratings. As the Toyota brand's head, Bill Fay, said last week, "It's still a five-star car. It still does very well in all the IIHS tests. It did not in [the small overlap frontal crash test], and we're busy making the necessary adjustments so that we can address that."
Now, though, those redesigned cars have been tested, earning an "Acceptable" rating in the overlap testing. According to Consumer Reports, Camrys built from November 2013 on feature new internal structures that improve the car's crash test scores enough to make it a "Recommended" buy. IIHS has also elevated the car back to a position in its Top Safety Pick category, although it falls short of the new gold standard, the Top Safety Pick + rating.
