MECHANIC/BODYMAN'S SPECIAL - NEEDS PAINT & A NEW CLUTCH

Why does this car look awful?  This car was a one owner and it was painted and used as a promotion for what appeared to be a music shop.  The car was originally dark blue.  We got it to our shop and were in the process of sanding it down to repaint when our body man quit.  We don't have a replacement and we'd rather not pay another shop to complete the work so here you are, a great opportunity to get a well kept Corolla cheap!  You can paint it dark blue again or whatever other color you want. It also needs a clutch but those aren't hard to do on these cars.  Despite the clutch need the car runs and drives fine and the car will get you wherever you need to go no problem!   Mechanically speaking the car is sound.  Engine, brakes, tires, a/c, and heat is all there.  We have a stack of service records!  The previous owner took care of the car!

Want a warranty?

If you are accustomed to having the option to purchase an extended warranty when you buy your pre-owned car, we can help you!  The car is eligible for several warranties that we offer from basic power train coverage for three months all the way up to comprehensive coverage for 4 years / unlimited mileage and everything in between.  Smaller warranties are available if you desire, but these can be provided at a very competitive rate.  If you'd like details on the warranty or have any questions about the car don't hesitate to call 210-570-6194.



Yes, it looks hideous now, but it's one paint job away from looking great!











































The car did have some body damage to the door as you can see.  It's very much fixable.






Tires still have great tread.  You just need a new set of hub caps to make these look better!




Trunk is clean.  Plenty of room back here!


































Interior looks great!
















5-speed for maximum MPG!













































Still drives great!  Was well maintained!














Radio, a/c and heat work great!



























You get all the books!




Original window sticker.  Look at that MPG!









You get a whole stack of service history!  It's all there!






No warning lights remain on the dash after the car is started!  This is exactly what it will look like when you're driving it!  Incredible!  The car's mileage is original and the odometer works perfectly!  





 
If you thought the inside of this car was clean, open the hood!  Just look at how nice everything is under here!
 
 
 

 
The engine's condition more than keeps up with the condition of the rest of the car!
 
 
 

 


You'll be very pleased with the engine's condition.  It was very well kept and is well on its way to giving you a lifetime of quality service! These engines are rated to last well over 500,000 miles with proper care!  With only 107,000 miles this car has still got plenty of miles left in it.  If this car's overall condition doesn't show you this car has been taken care of I don't know what else will!
 
 
 
   


This is the highly desired, fuel efficient 4-Cylinder engine.  In addition to providing world-class reliability, this car features great gas mileage.
 
 

 


This is an engine that you would be proud to call your own!  You won't believe how nice this car is!  Just look at this beauty!



 
It's very hard to find these on the open market because most Toyota enthusiasts are getting these cars with no intention of letting them go.  I firmly believe you'll never get another deal like this!

Volvo S90 Recharge, Lexus RX 350 and spring beer picks | Autoblog Podcast #679

Fri, May 21 2021

In this episode of the Autoblog Podcast, Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore is joined by Consumer Editor Jeremy Korzeniewski. They start off discussing the Volvo S90 Recharge and wonder out loud why the brand's plug-in technology isn't also offered with a wagon body style. They then discuss the Lexus RX350 and why it's likely an ideal premium crossover for a large percentage of buyers. From there, Greg and Jeremy cover some recent news items, including the current state of BMW's coupes and rumors that Toyota's next Land Cruiser will lose its V8 engine in favor of a turbocharged V6. Then it's time to go over some of our current favorite spring beers before turning to the mailbag and spending some listener's money.

Hi-po Toyota GT86 to get KERS?

Fri, 09 Nov 2012

We happen to like the Toyota GT86 - and, it of course goes without saying that the same applies to the Subaru BRZ and Scion FR-S, as well - just the way it is. Yes, that includes the standard 2.0-liter four-cylinder boxer engine and its 200 horsepower at 7,000 rpm.
That said, a little extra power never hurt anybody, right?
The most obvious way to add some punch to the GT86 would be with a turbocharger, and that has indeed long been rumored for an STI version of the BRZ. Will Toyota follow suit? According to Top Gear, the answer is no. Says GT86 chief engineer Tetsuya Tada, "I think 300bhp with a turbo and 200g/km of CO2 would be tasteless in this day and age. And a turbo would mean the loss of the GT86's uniqueness." Perhaps a bit harsh, but there you go.

Poor headlights cause 40 cars to miss IIHS Top Safety Pick rating

Mon, Aug 6 2018

Over the past few months, we've noticed a number of cars and SUVs that have come incredibly close to earning one of the IIHS's highest accolades, the Top Safety Pick rating. They have great crash test scores and solid automatic emergency braking and forward collision warning systems. What trips them up is headlights. That got us wondering, how many vehicles are there that are coming up short because they don't have headlights that meet the organization's criteria for an "Acceptable" or "Good" rating. This is a revision made after 2017, a year in which headlights weren't factored in for this specific award. This is also why why some vehicles, such as the Ford F-150, might have had the award last year, but have lost it for this year. We reached out to someone at IIHS to find out. He responded with the following car models. Depending on how you count, a whopping 40 models crash well enough to receive the rating, but don't get it because their headlights are either "Poor" or "Marginal." We say depending on how you count because the IIHS actual counts truck body styles differently, and the Infiniti Q70 is a special case. Apparently the version of the Q70 that has good headlights doesn't have adequate forward collision prevention technology. And the one that has good forward collision tech doesn't have good enough headlights. We've provided the entire list of vehicles below in alphabetical order. Interestingly, it seems the Volkswagen Group is having the most difficulty providing good headlights with its otherwise safe cars. It had the most models on the list at 9 split between Audi and Volkswagen. GM is next in line with 7 models. It is worth noting again that though these vehicles have subpar headlights and don't quite earn Top Safety Pick awards, that doesn't mean they're unsafe. They all score well enough in crash testing and forward collision prevention that they would get the coveted award if the lights were better.
