1980 Toyota Celica Supra Hatchback 2-door 2.6l Mk1 All Original Low Miles! on 2040-cars
|
This is the very rare 1980 Toyota Celica Supra MK1. This car is a major head turner! There are not very many left in this good of shape, and next to non with this low of miles (96,***) It is all original (except for the CD player of course). Original paint job is still very nice! Everything works including heat and AC. Very fun car to drive, V6 with rwd and over drive- this car wants to go! The Supra Mk1 was way ahead of its time, it is fuel injected and even has power windows.
Interior is in pretty good shape, the driver and passenger seats have tears and should be reupholstered at some point. I currently have seat covers on them. Body is in amazing shape for a 34 year old car! The only spot of rust I could find was about the size of a quarter (see pictures of the hood) Car runs and drives good. I always warm it up for at least 10 minutes before driving it, I recommend that you do the same for optimal performance (as you should with any car this old!) The brakes were replaced pretty recently. I have owned this car for about 3 years, driven it very modularly (only summers, and weekends) and always kept it in a heated Garage. I've always changed the oil every couple of months. This car has been very well taken care of, and will take good care of you weather you keep it all original or modify it. It is a very nice car, especially for the age, but keep in mind that it is 34 years old, and by no means perfect, so please ask any and all questions before bidding or making an offer. I described it to the best of my ability, but I definitely encourage getting an independent car inspection before purchasing. all sales are final. |

Cosworth teases upgrades for Subaru BRZ
Mon, 19 May 2014Subaru may or may not produce an STI version of the BRZ. Things seem to go back and forth on the subject. But Subaru Tecnica International isn't the only company with a history of tuning Subies. So does Cosworth, and now the British racing firm appears to be turning its attention to the BRZ and its Toyota- and Scion-badged siblings.
For those unacquainted, Cosworth is more than your average tuning company. It's a racing firm first and foremost, having made F1 engines under its own name as well as Ford's (chief among them the all-conquering DFV 3.0-liter V8 of 1960s and 70s fame), not to mention engines for Indy, rally and even high-performance, road-going versions of the Ford Sierra, Chevy Vega and Mercedes 190E. The list goes on and on, but you get the point.
Now withdrawing from Formula One, Cosworth is focusing its attention on tuning road cars again with the launch of the Cosworth Power Package line, the first of which will focus on the Toyota GT86 (aka Scion FR-S) and Subaru BRZ. We don't know just yet what will be included in the packaged dubbed FA-20, but from the video teaser below, it seems there'll be upgrades to the exhaust, suspension, aero and - if we're lucky - maybe a super- or turbocharger for the 2.0-liter flat-four engine. We'll have to wait and see, but we get the feeling that with Cosworth on the job, it'll be worth the wait. Check out the minute-long video below in the meantime.
Toyota recalling 20k 2014 and 2015 cars and CUVs with 3.5L engines
Thu, 18 Sep 2014Toyota has announced a recall of roughly 20,000 vehicles covering the 2014 Avalon, Camry, Highlander (pictured) and Sienna, as well as the 2015 Lexus RX luxury crossover. The affected vehicles are all powered the 2GR-FE engine, which in layman's terms, is Toyota's well-regarded 3.5-liter V6.
According to Toyota's statement, a parts supplier might not have welded "the end cap on the right-hand fuel delivery pipe in the engine compartment" correctly, meaning fuel could leak. Leaking fuel, of course, increases the chance of an engine fire. That said, no fires, crashes or injuries have been reported due to the issue.
Owners will be notified to report to dealers, where techs will check the fuel delivery pipe and fit a replacement part as necessary.
Local production could improve Toyota Prius' fortunes in China
Wed, Apr 23 2014The Toyota Prius is the world's most popular hybrid vehicle, but it may take domestic production capabilities for the model to achieve a high level of popularity in China. Japan-based Toyota is aiming to produce an increasing percentage of Prius components in China in order to bring down its price there, Bloomberg News reports. Eventually, the goal is to make all Priuses sold in China in that country in order to avoid the steep 25-percent import tariff. As it is, Toyota sold just 1,400 Prius vehicles in China last year, compared to about 234,000 in the US and 315,000 worldwide. Hindering sales is the fact that the Prius costs about as much as an entry-level Audi in China, where Volkswagen is the country's best-selling automaker. Toyota has been selling the Prius in China for almost a decade but may soon find local sources for the batteries and other hybrid parts for the Prius and Camry Hybrid, Bloomberg says, citing comment from Hiroji Onishi, Toyota's China chief, at the Beijing Auto Show. Part of the problem is that the Chinese government provides less than $500 worth of subsidies for each hybrid sold, compared to about $9,600 for an electric vehicle. While that subsidy may rise as China municipalities take on the country's growing pollution problems, there's lingering concern over spurring sales of a car that's made by competing Japan. Toyota starting making some of its Prius vehicles in China in 2005 but halted production on the second-generation version of the hybrid four years later.
