This car has a clean and clear title with no thefts.  It was purchased originally in Folsom, Ca and has been continuously registered in California ever since. There was a minor accident in December of 2013 involving the left rear side of the car.  This has been repaired and a new bumper cover installed.

It is an absolute California Rust-Free Car.  AutoCheck and CarFax both show the date of a cars emissions tests and the mileage when taken and any sales that occurred.  With this car there were no sales, however there was one transfer from the original owner to his son. So it is best to state that as a simple within  family transfer in 2007.

As these reports show the progressive mileage readings through the years and that is as close to a certification of the present mileage as you can get in that if the mileage had been altered you should see the mileage either not advancing over time or even dropping if the odometer had been replaced.  That is a reliable record because it comes from the online records of a state agency, and there are no gaps. Cars from other states, such as Pennsylvania and many other states, may get smoged even every year, but the mileage is only recorded when there has been a transfer of ownership and it is easy in that case to alter the mileage and it not be uncovered in the reports from many states, but it goes a long way in explaining why there are so many apparently low mileage cars coming from certain states. But with this car, it had its mileage recorded every two years, in California, and so, that becomes a much more reliable record.

Please note, In California 1996 and newer cars receive what is called a Star Emissions Test every two years.  This test is quite vigorous and involves being tested on a Dynometer, and because of the vigor of that test, it is deemed sufficient every two years, assuming no transfer of ownership is involved.

The following info is that record.

July           2007        46,400
March       2009        59,873
February   2011        87,437
March       2013       104,726
December 2013 Minor Accident at  approximately 110,000 miles.

So, if your looking for a low mileage car, make sure that it is truly low mileage before you pay the price for a pig in a poke. This one is the real McCoy! 

Although it is difficult for me to say that 110,000 is low mileage it is comparatively low mileage when you look at most cars on the market. Please realize that there are many, many of these Toyota V6 cars being sold with over 300,000 miles today, and it is that dependability, combined with fuel efficiency, that is what makes those cars with even over 300,000 miles on  them. With 200,000 miles they appear to be worth as much as about half the price of this one with just 110,000, although I personally would be not comfortable with buying at 200,000 miles, many are. When I do meet someone who is an original owner with one of these 300,000 mile plus cars, and I frequently do,  I always ask them..." What, are you waiting for, the Govenor's Pardon to release you before you get out of this torture chamber? "

But seriously, I really don't think you can do better than this one at $6,500. It has everything and everything works , even the cruise control works perfectly.

The car is amazing! The low miles are absolutely real and the smog tests, and a physical inspection, proved that this car was very well maintained. There are no leaks and everything works.

Whether  you want a car for your collection, or to be a daily driver, I doubt you will find a better car to purchase at under $10,000. 

Options:  Power Driver's Seat, Automatic, AC, Am/Fm w/CD, 3.0L V6, Alloy Wheels, White with Beige Interior.

Lower gas prices mean there are excellent deals on green cars right now

Sat, Jan 17 2015

The phenomenon was big enough to make news in 2006, then in 2008, in 2011, in 2012, in 2013, and again last year: a big move in gas prices means a big move in alternative-fuel-vehicle sales. True Car's TrueSavings report, which averages transaction prices across the country to figure out what people are paying compared to MSRP, shows that electric cars and hybrids are ripe for excellent savings right now. The Ford Focus Electric presents the greatest disparity, with the average transaction price of $25,168 representing a 16.1-percent saving off its $29,995 MSRP. The Kia Optima Hybrid and Toyota Prius also snagged spots in the top five, with the Kia offering a 10.7-percent discount and the Toyota a 10.1-percent discount. One hybrid managed to show up among the top five lease offers, too: the Lincoln MKZ Hybrid is just $315 a month for 36 months after $3,875 down in some markets. Alt-energy vehicles got bumped out of the top five finance deals, however. That was dominated by light trucks and, oddly, two subcompacts. The press release below has more details. TrueCar finds hybrids, EVs top list of best savings in January Gasoline price plunge = savings for consumers on alternative fuel vehicles SANTA MONICA, Calif., Jan. 15, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Ford's Focus Electric hatchback, which sells at an average of 16 percent off MSRP, tops January's list of best savings on new vehicles, according to TrueCar, Inc. (NASDAQ: TRUE), the negotiation-free car buying and selling platform. The "TrueSavings" monthly report analyzes current transaction prices and identifies opportunities for consumer savings. "Fuel savings are not top of mind to many consumers right now, and that makes this a great time to buy a hybrid or electric vehicle," said John Krafcik, president of TrueCar. "With gasoline prices now averaging just $2.10 per gallon, and vehicle preferences tied so closely to short-term gasoline prices, automakers are heavily discounting their most fuel-efficient cars to clear inventories." Toyota's Prius, the world's best-selling alternative fuel vehicle for more than a decade, also makes January's list of best savings. Customers who purchase a Prius Two model this month can save 10 percent off the hybrid car's $25,025 MSRP. "Gasoline prices and vehicle type preferences are strongly related, and this relationship is cyclical in nature," said Krafcik.

130,000 Toyota Tundra pickups recalled over airbag issue

Fri, 12 Sep 2014

Toyota is announcing a recall for about 130,000 examples of the 2014 Tundra Tundra pickup in Crew-Max Cab and Double Cab configurations.
According to the company, the "garnish on the center pillars" inside the trucks might not have been installed correctly. If the vehicle were in an accident, the side curtain airbags could deploy in the wrong shape. Toyota says that it's not aware of any crashes, injuries or fatalities related to this potential problem.
To fix the issue, the pickups will have their interior center pillars inspected, and if faulty, the pieces will be replaced. Obviously, this will be done at no cost to owners. Scroll down to read the full announcement.

Is your new-car warranty good at the race track?

Mon, Feb 27 2017

We've all heard the horror stories. Your buddy knows a girl that was dating a guy whose best friend's brother once broke his brand-new, recently purchased performance car while making runs at a drag strip or laps at a track day, and the manufacturer wouldn't cover the repair under warranty. True story? Urban legend? Complete crap? Yes, no, maybe. One thing's for sure: Automotive warranties have always come with caveats. In 1908, an ad in the Trenton Evening Times clearly stated: "All Ford Cars Guaranteed for One Year." Although it changed over time, by 1925 the Ford New Car Guarantee only covered 90 days on material and 30 days on labor, and it clearly stated that that there was "No guarantee whatever on Fan Belts, Glass, Bulbs, Wiring, Transmission, Bands, Hose Connections, Commutator Shells, Rollers, Spark Plugs or Gaskets." Whether or not Ol' Henry would pay to fix your Model T if you broke it shaving a tenth off your lap time at the local board track seems to be lost to history. We're guessing no. But what about today? Do new-car warranties in 2017 cover cars when they are driven on race tracks? We researched the warranties of 14 auto brands to find out, and the answer is yes, no, maybe, depending on the brand, in some cases the model, and whether or not your car is modified from stock. Acura has been out of the high-performance car game for a number of years, but jumps back into the party in 2017 with its hybrid-powered $173,000 NSX supercar. And Acura's warranty, as well as Honda's, clearly states that it does not cover "the use of the vehicle in competition or racing events." View 33 Photos So we asked Sage Marie, Senior Manager of Public Relations for Honda and Acura. "If the car is stock, the warranty covers it on a track just as it does on the street. No question," he told us. "However, if the car is modified, say with slick tires or other components that would put higher stresses on the vehicle's parts and systems, then we would have to investigate the circumstances further." Marie went on to say the same would be true for any Acura model or Honda vehicle, including the new 2017 Honda Civic Si. This became a common theme. Chevrolet actually started this practice with the fifth-generation Camaro on the high-performance ZL1 and Z/28 models.
