Got a 85 Toyota MR2 here, its one of the nicer ones left here in MN. Its light blue, obviously. and its a 5 speed too! I saved this car from a owner who didn't know what they were doing, I've thoroughly gone through the car and fixed everything that's needed to be fixed so it is reliable again, you can thank me later. Comes with original wheels, 2 boxes of all this really rad extra stuff and every part the previous owner deemed necessary to take off, except the timing belt cover, the gnomes took that one. This car is great! It gets awesome mileage, i deliver sandwiches part time and usually get 35-40 mpg, its also one of the best handling cars I've ever owned. Also this car pulls the ladies harder than Burt Reynolds in a DeLorean with Phil Collins in the tape deck, a few guys too if that's your thing, i wont discriminate, personally not my thing though.

The engine is a 4A-GE, same as AE86 Corolla and AE111 Corolla fame. I love this engine, it falls on its face under 4500rpm because Toyota decided to make the intake ports the size of baseballs so it ruins the flow of the head at low RPM but otherwise is a stellar engine especially for being designed in 1980, and is one of the best sounding 4 cylinder engines ever (second to the Honda B16B, and Subaru EJ257). If you're wondering where you've heard 4A-GE before its because Takumi Fujiwara in Initial D has that engine in his AE86 but he has the 20V from the 90s i just got the 16v from the 80s. pfft the 1980s were cooler anyway, AND this engine you can actually find parts for at Autozone, unlike that JDM 20v Crap. Speaking of such, parts for this are cheap as hell, alternator $80, water pump $30 i love it!

The exhaust on this sucks though, get a new one. I just was in a pinch and fabbed this up with a friend in like an hour.

I'm a semi motivated seller but I'm ready to sell it if anyone wants it. If you are out of state you are responsible for shipping and there is no warranty expressed or implied.


Pros:
-Water pump, thermostat, alternator and serpentine belt all done in last 2 months
-Ignition Coil/ plugs/ Distributor cap and Rotor all done in last 3 months
-interior pretty solid
-Mechanically sound
-comes with box of extra parts
-comes with stock wheels
-New headlights, and fresh tires (literally 200 miles on them)
-Just put in a new windshield yesterday (6/8/2013)

Cons:
-small rust in front of rear quarter panel $300 extra and ill get it fixed for you
-no radio
-sway bar end link clicks if you hit a really big pothole
-the exhaust is pretty jank
-that whole being mobbed by women thing

These are the fastest-selling new cars of 2024

Thu, Apr 25 2024

Automakers finally appear to be back on their feet after a few years of severe instability, but that hasn’t helped all of them in the sales department. iSeeCars recently released its study on the fastest- and slowest-selling new vehicles and found that some companies are moving vehicles off dealersÂ’ lots at more than twice the pace of others. Toyota was the fastest-selling new car brand between October 2023 and March 2024, moving vehicles in an average of 39.6 days. Surprisingly, Alfa Romeo came second, averaging 41.8 days on the market. Last year, we saw a list of the fastest-selling individual nameplates overall, as opposed to this study that's ranked by brand. Fastest-selling new cars of 2024 Toyota: 39.6 days on the market Alfa Romeo: 41.8 Cadillac: 43.4 Honda: 44.2 Jaguar: 44.4 Kia: 47 Hyundai: 47.1 Subaru: 49 BMW: 49.1 Mazda: 53.1 The brands moving inventory the fastest show a strong value and desirability for buyers. iSeeCars executive analyst Karl Brauer noted, “Fast-selling brands like Toyota and Honda represent mainstream consumers seeking maximum value for their new-car dollar. Conversely, high-ranking luxury, low-volume brands like Alfa Romeo, Cadillac, and Jaguar reflect both their limited supply as well as high demand from affluent buyers willing to snap these models up shortly after they arrive on dealer lots.” Of course, there is no light without darkness, and on the other side of the list are a handful of brands struggling to move inventory. Lincoln was the slowest-selling new car company, with an average of 82.6 days to sell. Infiniti was close behind at 79.8 days, and Buick took an average of 79 days to move units. iSeeCars noted that new EVs take much longer to sell than their hybrid counterparts, at an average of 70.6 days on the market in March 2024, compared to just 49.5 for hybrids. Some of the fast-selling new brands also made the used car list. Used Hondas sold the fastest, only sitting on dealersÂ’ lots for an average of 26.1 days. LexusÂ’ used cars sat for 26.3 days, and Toyota moved its used inventory in an average of 27.4 days. By the Numbers Green Alfa Romeo Cadillac Toyota Car Buying

Toyota highlights JDM Mark X with special Yellow Label edition

Fri, 05 Sep 2014

Never heard of the Toyota Mark X? That's because the Japanese automaker only sells it in its home market (and in China as the Reiz). It's a rear-drive (or all-wheel-drive) sports sedan about the size of a Lexus IS, whose existence is probably why Toyota will never bring the Mark X to North America. The current model has been on the market since 2009, but Toyota is rolling out a series of updates - including the new Yellow Label model pictured here.
Available on the 250G, 250G Four and 250G S trim levels, the Yellow Label gets a special shade of Awaken Yellow paint (though it can be had in black, white or silver as well), with an interior decked out in either yellow or black. It also gets piano lacquer trim, yellow stitching, pink gold accents, special tread plates and other interior equipment upgrades, as well as a unique set of alloys. All of which makes the Toyota Mark X Yellow Label perfect for recreating scenes from Kill Bill without the need to squeeze into yellow leathers. (In fact we wouldn't be surprised to see Toyota doing just that for a promo clip.)
Power comes from a 2.5-liter V6 (and not the larger 3.5 available on the 350S model) channeled through a six-speed automatic to either the rear wheels or all four. Pricing ranges between 2.8 and 3.1 million yen (~$26-30k), representing a premium of about 106k yen ($1k) over non-yellow models. Toyota operates four distinct dealer networks in Japan, and the Mark X is sold through Toyopet stores.

2018 Honda Odyssey bests Pacifica, Sienna in minivan crash, LATCH tests

Thu, Aug 16 2018

Honda has a lot to be proud of following the latest round of passenger small-overlap crash testing by the IIHS. The safety organization tested the 2018 Honda Odyssey, 2018 Chrysler Pacifica and 2018 Toyota Sienna, and the Odyssey managed the best rating of "Good." The Pacifica followed behind with an "Acceptable" rating, and the Sienna brought up the rear with just a "Marginal." Both the Pacifica and Sienna lost points because the structure around the passengers collapsed to differing extents, leading to parts of the structure intruding into the passenger compartment. The Pacifica didn't intrude enough to harm passengers, with each injury area still having a Good rating, but the Sienna's structure intruded far enough to potentially harm the leg and foot areas, leading to an Acceptable rating in those specific areas. In addition to the small overlap crash test, the IIHS evaluated all three minivans for LATCH child seat anchor ease of use. Once again, the Odyssey aced the test with a Good+ rating, which is awarded for both ease of use and offering multiple anchor point options. The Pacifica and Sienna swap the crash test ratings, with a Marginal for the Chrysler and an Acceptable for the Sienna. The Odyssey and Pacifica can both brag that they're Top Safety Picks, and they'd get Top Safety Pick+ awards if they weren't hampered by headlights that only get Acceptable ratings. The Toyota Sienna fails to earn the regular Top Safety Pick award because both small overlap tests yielded results that were too low. Only one other minivan tested by IIHS has the Top Safety Pick rating, and that's the Kia Sedona. It earns an Acceptable rating in LATCH usability, and its headlights actually earned a Good rating. It hasn't undergone passenger-side small overlap crash testing yet. If it fares well, it could get bumped up to a Top Safety Pick+ rating.
