Up for sale is my 1985 Toyota MR2. I originally purchased this car November 11,2012 as a project car. Mechanically the car was in good shape but I wanted to go through it and replace items that I thought should be replaced. I purchased the car with 89,600 original miles.. This was a sentimental purchase as I had purchased an original 1985 MR2 the first year of production and wanted to buy another one almost 30 years later!!! I do find that it was easier to get in and out of 30 years ago, oh well, age sucks!!
I completed the following items:
1. Full tune up including plugs, wires, filters etc.
2. Replaced Timing belt and water pump, new coolant
3. Replaced Battery
4. Replaced the parking brake cable with OEM units, "very expensive"!! Had to do this to pass inspection.
5. Replaced OEM Sealed Beam headlights with Hella US DOT H4 units, so they are legal in the US.
6. I primed and resprayed the aluminum trim with special Dupli Color trim paint since the old paint had faded badly, I also painted the rear view mirrors with Krylon plastic paint as they had faded as well.
7. The only item I didn't have fixed was the A/C, it needs a recharge and just haven't gotten it done yet. Compressor turns on and off just doesn't blow cold.
I then replaced the original wheels and tires with Drif Z wheels and 195/50ZR15 Falken ZiexZE912 Tires, currently have about 1000 miles on them
I then took the car to a body shop to have the rear quarters rebuilt and repainted. I actually had everything repainted with Toyota Super red except for the front hood, front fenders and top.. The paint matches perfectly as the painter I used is very meticulous. There was some rust but not extremely bad like other cars I have seen.I left the front fenders alone as they had been resprayed prior to me having the car. There is a slight rust spot on the lower front fender but it is surface rust so I left it alone.I also installed an original rear spoiler that I had purchased, it was used and had to be completely reworked and resprayed, it now looks perfect!! You can see from the pictures, this car is in great shape both visually and mechanically. The interior is near perfect, there is a small blemish on the vinyl radio surround which you can see in the picture. I replaced a couple of missing plastic rivets in the headliner and really can't find anything else wrong. Seats show very little wear and really are amazingly clean.Radio works fine but I really don't listen to it as I love the sound of the engine!! Car shifts and steers tight, the only thing I haven't done is replace the struts. They probably should be done due to age but aren't really giving any trouble. I have the receipts for the work that I have done, but the previous owner didn't. The previous owner was the original owner, so this is a two owner only car. It has a current Virginia state inspection, so everything checked out. This car has a clear VA. title, I will not accept bids from 0 feedback bidders so don't even bother. Please, serious buyers only, I hate playing games!! I have prided myself on quality listings and honest descriptions, I have tried to be as detailed as I can. I am selling now as I am looking for another project car, I have had a couple before this and just enjoy buying fixing and re-selling.

Toyota 86 most likely to get more power through more displacement? [w/poll]
Wed, 21 Aug 2013The Sydney Morning Herald has spoken to Tetsuya Tada, chief engineer of the Toyota 86 (our version of it, the Scion FR-S, is pictured above), and they've been promised that more power is on the way. We've heard a lot of speculation about a more powerful Toyobaru since before the standard model was even launched. The only question now is how the power will be delivered, and among the engine concepts we've already heard about - turbo, supercharger, twin-charged, hybrid - is a new one: more displacement.
Tada said that an engine with more displacement than the current coupe's 2.0 liters is being tested alongside a turbocharged and a hybrid-assisted motor. The SMH cites "inside sources" as saying the displacement option is the one likely to get the go-ahead, and suggests increased bore and stroke will see the engine grow to 2.5 liters, horsepower to about 250 - a 50-hp increase over the present car.
While that's apparently the betting man's solution for the long-awaited increase in gumption, what happens with the next generation could be more wide open than we suspected. According to the report, Tada "hinted that [a successor] could be a radically different car, potentially dropping the boxer engine altogether." He said once they've sorted out the concept for the second generation car, then they'll sort out an engine. That's where a turbo option could come to market, perhaps the turbocharged four-cylinder Toyota is developing for the Lexus NX crossover or a hybrid system that uses a capacitor.
Question of the Day: Ever consider driving a minivan?
Thu, May 12 2016Since I'm supposed to know something about cars, it happens all the time: friends and relatives ask me advice about what kind of vehicle they should get. Very often, the only type of vehicle that can check every item on their wish list (e.g., hauls lots of people and stuff, gets good fuel economy, has great crash-test ratings, can take four Great Danes camping, and so on) is a modern minivan... and, of course, nobody wants to hear this. I'm not a minivan person, they will wail, and so they end up with a cramped, fuel-swilling SUV or a not-so-space-efficient minivan-in-disguise CUV. So, is it worth becoming one of those minivan people in order to get the incredible usefulness of these masterpieces of vehicle engineering, or do you hold your head high and drive something that doesn't quite meet your needs?
