1994 Toyota Land Cruiser Diff Locks Only 73k Miles! 3rd Row, Gray Leather Fzj80 on 2040-cars
Arroyo Grande, California, United States
****Relisted because winner of previous auction was unable to complete transaction for personal reasons. Please do not bid if you are not 100% sure on purchasing**** OVERVIEW: This is a very well kept example of unmodified 1994 FZJ80 Land Cruiser with only 73k miles, 3rd row seats, and optional front and rear Differential Locks. I recently bought this FZJ80 to build up for off road use, but it is so clean I can't bare to alter it. I will attempt to explain to the best of my knowledge in detail the condition of everything. If you have any questions do not hesitate to contact me via email. If you'd like leave me your number, we can talk over the phone. HISTORY: I've only owned this vehicle for a month or so. I purchased it from a gentleman in San Jose, CA who had recently inherited it from the passing of his brother. He stated his brother had owned it since it was "almost new". He also stated this was only one of seven cars he had just inherited from his brother inluding a bunch of high end sports cars and that when they were not being driven they were garaged in what he said was a huge 10+ car garage, (hence the low mileage, and condition). Clean title and pink slip is in my name and in hand. It looks as though I am the 4th owner. The third owner was the guy I bought it from and he had it since 10/17/13. His brother, 2nd owner, had it since 4/2/97 with 47k miles. EXTERIOR: Color is Dark Emerald Pearl Green. Appears to be the original paint with no signs of clear coat fading. There are a handful of tiny paint touch up spots on different areas of the vehicle apparently from the previous owner. Has factory roof rack, factory running boards, factory mud flaps, tow package with wiring harness. See link to pictures for all details of any imperfections that caught my eye. INTERIOR: Gray interior is very clean. There is no evidence of tabacco / smoking use. Leather Seats are in great condition including the 3rd row seats, with power seats working in all directions. Driver seat has the most wear but no rips or tears, (see picture link). Carpet is very clean throughout with factory floor mats for front, middle, 3rd row, (had never seen the narrow 3rd row floor mat before) and rear cargo mat. Door panels and headliner are very clean. All interior and dash lights work as they should, (even the often burned out "D" light still illuminates on the dash!). Sunroof tilts and opens/closes as intended. I poured water down all four sunroof drains and they all flowed to the grounds smoothly. All power SUSPENSION/RUNNING GEAR/TIRES: It appears to have the factory coil springs with very clean, (or perhaps newer), Bilstiens in all corners. The 4.5L inline 6 runs smooth, and A442F transmission shifts smoothly. Power steering works well with no issues. Coolant is red in color, consistant with factory Toyota coolant. Engine oil is full, with no signs of water/coolant mixing. Brake, Auto Transmission, transfer case, front/rear axle fluids are all properly full with no signs of over use, neglect or metal filings. No apparent coolant, oil or gear fluid leaks. Front axle knuckles look clean and free of leaks. No engine codes or check engine lights. Air filter is the factory Toyota washable type. Tires are Toyo Open Country 275/70R16 and look practically new, with lots of tread, (see pictures) with no cupping or uneven wear marks. Factory spare has Michelin 275/70R16 in factory location. Factory jack and tool kit included. DRIVE/4WD: It accelerates and drives fantastic down the road at all speeds, no shimmies, shakes or pulling to either side. The ABS power brakes operate properly and stop great. Four Wheel Drive; The 4wd low shifts as it should which activates the CDL and ABS lights to illuminate on the dash. Both the front and rear differential lockers activate within a matter of seconds. When activating the front or rear differential the selinoid can be heard activating each locker which changes each blinking light on the dash to stay on solid. Lockers and 4wd hi/low both work great! PAYMENT: $500 due via paypal within 3 days of auction end, (if you don't have paypal, contact me before bidding and we can work something out). The remaining balance due upon vehicle pickup in for the form of cash, cashiers check or money transfer, (we could even meet at a bank if you prefer, I've heard bad stories about fake cashiers checks). SHIPPING: Winning bidder will need to make arrangements for picking vehicle up from my location. I have no experience with shipping, but I will assist on my end if winning bidder chooses to ship. Buyer is responsible for shipping and all fees associated with it. I reserve the right to end auction early since the vehicle is available for sale locally too. Currently California smogged, and in smog cert in CA database which is good for 90 days. Smog performed on 2/18/2014.

On Mar-30-14 at 21:24:29 PDT, seller added the following information: UPDATE 3/30: To answer questions I've added about 25 more pictures (see photobucket link above) showing the keys and manual, undercarriage, wheel wells, body and bumper and window seal details. The only surface rust on anything is on the tow kit. The undercarriage probably needs a pressure washing to get the years of road grime off. Detail of wheel wells shows how clean and rust free they are. Window seals all appear in nice condition and un-cracked. All glass says TOYOTA on it except for the front windshield. There are a couple, almost not noticeable, tiny stars on the windshield. As far as the body I'm calling it extremely clean, especially for a 20 y/o vehicle. There are a dozen or so dots of touch up paint the previous owner must have done. It could probably use a good waxing, then it would really shine. There is a small ding on both of the rear passenger doors , with no damage to paint, (very difficult to capture with camera). Also looks like the PO had a 'push bar' on the front bumper. This must have left two areas to the right and left of license plate where it looks like it wore through the paint of the bumper. There is also a small ding, (1/4" or so), on front of hood and scratch on chrome grill that is in line with the marks on bumper to the right of license plate. This is my first vehicle I've sold on Ebay, and it didn't really dawn on me that most people aren't going to see it before bidding or winning. So I'm trying to point out every flaw because I know I wouldn't want to be surprised if I was buying a car; sight unseen. Again, see photobucket link above. Feel free to ask any other questions you may have. |

Weekly Recap: BMW rolls out ambitious plug-in hybrid electric plan
Sat, Dec 6 2014"We believe that for the United States, this is going to be very important." – Julian Arguelles Let there be no doubt, BMW is serious about electric vehicles. The German automaker said this week it will make plug-in hybrid versions of all of its core models, an aggressive move that demonstrates its commitment to electric propulsion systems. BMW did not specify which vehicles will get the plug-in systems or provide a timeline for when they will arrive. But the announcement is clearly more than blustering, and the company revealed a 3 Series plug-in prototype this week at an event in France. BMW said the 3 Series uses a version of its 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine (240 horsepower, 300 pound feet of torque) with an electric motor sandwiched between the engine and transmission in place of the torque converter. It has an all-electric range of 22 miles. A plug-in X5 with the same powertrain was also displayed alongside the 3 Series, though the X5 has been on the auto-show circuit for more than a year, including a recent stop in Los Angeles. Those two vehicles use "eDrive," and BMW's plans represent the first widespread transfer of its technology from development of the i3 and i8 models to more mainstream products. BMW said it's developing electric powertrains so they can be deployed rapidly across its range, and they are flexible enough to be used with fuel cells in future products. Enticingly, BMW is also working on a "Power eDrive" system, which debuted in a 5 Series GT concept at the event in France. This setup has two electric motors powered by a 20-kilowatt-hour battery pack, and when teamed with a four-cylinder turbo, pump out about 670 hp. Reinforcing BMW's commitment, the company will add more than 200 jobs at its factory in Dingolfing, Germany, to support electric-vehicle development. The moves come as BMW and other automakers diversify their portfolios while fuel economy and emissions regulations are getting tighter around the world. The United States has set a 54.5-mpg CAFE requirement for the 2025 model year. BMW said the electric vehicles were developed with an eye toward the US market, its government policies and its wide-ranging commuting styles. "We believe that for the United States, this is going to be very important," spokesman Julian Arguelles said. Ben Scott, a senior analyst in London with automotive research firm IHS, said BMW's moves are expensive – but necessary – to keep pace with the market.
Toyota offered $146.5 million to build Lexus ES in Kentucky
Thu, 18 Apr 2013Toyota posted a media advisory yesterday saying that Akio Toyoda, president of Toyota, and Jim Lentz, CEO of Toyota North America, would be making a production announcement tomorrow in New York City, and Automotive News reports that the automaker will be announcing a plan to domestically produce the Lexus ES. According to the report, numerous plants are competing to build the ES in North America, and the State of Kentucky has offered the automaker up to $146.5 million to build the luxury sedan at the Georgetown, KY assembly plant.
If Georgetown gets the ES, which has been built in Japan since its debut in 1989, it would be built alongside the Toyota Camry, which is somewhat ironic since in our review of the 2013 Lexus ES350, we wrote that this ES finally says "goodbye to its Camry roots." In order to get the whole amount offered, the article states that Toyota would have to invest $531.2 million and hire 570 full-time workers at the plant, which doesn't sound all that unreasonable since the plant would require an additional 50,000 units of annual production, not to mention the fact that the Georgetown facility is already at its capacity for building the Camry.
2015 Toyota Prius C is still colorful, still gets 53 mpg
Wed, 19 Nov 2014Few vehicles can match the affordable fuel economy of the $19,000, 53-mile-per-gallon Toyota Prius C, and that fact isn't likely to change for 2015, as the Japanese company has issued a moderate refresh of its sub-compact hybrid.
As mid-cycle refreshes go, this is a pretty standard affair, with a larger grille and tweaked LED headlights at the front of the Prius C, and more expressive taillights at the back. Toyota made some minor changes in the cabin, updating materials throughout, but not fiddling too much with the overall level of equipment.
Aside from those modest changes, this is the same fuel-efficient five-door, retaining its 1.5-liter, 73-horsepower, 82-pound-foot four-cylinder, while an electric motor tosses in an extra 26 ponies, for a total system output of 99 horsepower. Along with the 53-mpg highway rating, the C will return 46 mpg in the city.
