Selling this 1990 Toyota FJ62 Land Cruiser. This is an excellent example of a very well cared for Cruiser. Absolutely no rust, paint is nice, interior is near perfect. Has a small Old Man Emu lift with newish 31 x 10.5 all terrain tires. Has a winch ready ARB front bumper and guard. Engine has just been gone thru mechanically - see below. The ONLY ding in the body is a very small quarter sized bump on a rear corner. Hardly noticeable. Even the paint on the roof is in excellent shape. Look at the attached gallery for a whole bunch of pictures. Very rarely do you see a FJ this clean and rust free that hasnt been completely restored. I drove it today and heads were turning all over the place. Wish I could keep it. Ask any question, and I am available to show most days.

Engine - 238k miles. Runs very strong, all compression was excellent. Brand new sparkplugs, wires, cap, rotor, water pump, air filter, oil changed. Radiator newish - about 2 years old. Runs like a top.

Transmission was replaced with a rebuilt unit about 40k miles ago. Automatic.

Suspension - Brand new shocks all four corners less that 300 miles ago. Has I believe a 2.5 inch Old Man Emu lift. 31x10.5x r15 tires with excellent tread. Id say 80+%. Brand new steering stabilizer.

Brakes - New pads less than 300 miles ago. No squeaks, very smooth.

Interior - Excellent shape. Seats had seat covers on for most of the cars life. Upholstery is almost new. The ONLY tear is a small rip in the driver seat side panel. Could be repaired very cheaply. Everything else is perfect. No stains, no wear at all. Headliner is perfect and doesn't sag at all. Dash is perfect. Carpets are all very good, though in the pictures need to be vacuumed - has been done already. Sorry, it was getting late and wanted to get some pictures! All guages and buttons work. Electric windows all work, though they are a bit slow. Go up and down fine, but motors are most likely getting weak. Have been that way for a while. All glass is perfect. Comes with 4 custom fit rubber floor mats (not pictured - straight black). Very heavy duty and great way to keep the carpet wear free.

All other questions - Just ask! Located in Charleston SC.

$1000.00 deposit due within 24 hours of auction end. I reserve the right to end auction early if sold locally.

1967 Toyota 2000GT most expensive Asian car ever sold at $1.2M

Fri, 10 May 2013

Toyota's agelessly beautiful 2000GT has been sold by RM Auctions for $1.16 million, making it the new record holder for the most expensive Asian car ever sold. As always, rarity played a big factory in driving up the price; just 351 2000GT models were built, and only 62 left-hand-drive cars (like this one). The classic Toyota, standout member of Texas car-collector Don Davies' paddock, was originally a US-delivery car that spent time in a collection back in a Japan before returning to Texas just a short time ago. The car last sold in March of 2011, for just $650,000.
Enthusiasts will recognize the 2000GT as perhaps the most heralded Japanese classic of all time. The Toyota was a contemporary of the Jaguar E-Type - though one that obviously sold in a fraction of the English car's numbers - that was well reviewed by the motoring press of the day. Sometimes referred to as Japan's first supercar, the 2000GT boasted a 150-horsepower, dual overhead cam, 2.0-liter straight-six engine; a five-speed manual transmission; and a reported top speed of over 135 miles per hour.
RM described this record-setting example as, "the finest and most authentic 2000GT to come to market in recent years," equating it with blue chip classic exotics like the Ferrari Daytona and Lamborghini Miura.

Toyota's Lentz says fuel cells are the future, not EVs

Sun, 25 May 2014

Toyota is not bullish on EVs. That comes from the company's North American CEO, Jim Lentz, who said the company will focus not on electrification, but on continued hybridization with a long-term focus on hydrogen fuel cells.
Lentz questioned the long-range ability of EVs, saying that Toyota feels "there are better alternatives, such as hybrids and plug-in hybrids, and tomorrow with fuel cells." Lentz spoke about Toyota's focus on hydrogen following Forbes Brainstorm Green conference and barely a week after a battery deal between Tesla and Toyota ended, according to Automotive News.
That deal provided for 2,500 battery packs for the Rav4 EV. While valuable to Toyota, the deal "was never about open-ended volume," Lentz said. "It was time to either continue or stop. My personal feeling was that I would rather invest my dollars in fuel cell development than in another 2,500 EVs."

Toyota announces two recalls affecting 1M Corolla, Matrix and Lexus IS models

Wed, 30 Jan 2013

The recall bug strikes Toyota again. The automaker has issued a voluntary recall of three models that, in total, represent more than one million units. Around 752,000 2003-2004 Toyota Corolla and Matrix models are being recalled for airbag concerns, while a windshield wiper issue is causing the recall for close to 270,000 Lexus IS sedans from the 2006-2012 model years.
Completely unrelated to the small airbag-related recall issued earlier in the week, the Corolla and Matrix recall is caused by a faulty airbag control module that could potentially short circuit, which could lead to the front airbags or seat belt pretensioners deploying. The Lexus recall is due to a wiper arm nut that wasn't tightened properly, which can cause the wipers to not work when trying to clear heavy buildup such as snow.
Scroll down for a press release that includes more information, as well as details about how owners can contact the manufacturer directly.
