Hello and thank you viewing this auction. This is my first Mr2 so those of you in the know please feel free to educate me on the facts about this awesome Mr2. no warranty, no guaranty. you are buying this Mr2 "as is".
one issue; I just registered the title so it will be 4 weeks until I can overnight it to the winner of the auction. the title is clear no liens or anything like that.
this car has been a one owner car until I bought it a few days ago and he has 2 other vehicles that's how it has such low miles, it has been garaged its whole life, it has no modifications/completely original and is as the 1st owner bought it off the showroom floor. it has never been stunted or raced. never driven in the snow, it has spent its whole life in eastern Washington. the only rust I've been able to find is a small area on the battery hold down bracket.
the seat "covers" are nearly as old as the car so the seats upholstery is in excellent condition the rest of the interior is in pretty good shape also.
original stereo and speakers, still sounds really good.
original sunroof interior cover. I drove the car home in a downpour - not a drop from sunroof seal.
nearly new battery
nearly new tires. original small spare.
it does have a original rear window visor which has multiple paint specks or something "etched" into it.
no known major issues, it still feels tight when accelerating and turning. I started once releasing the clutch too quickly and too little throttle and the engine still didn't hesitate or knock.
as listed earlier this Mr2 does have normal wear and tear. rock chips in the paint, one noticeable rock chip in the windshield, a couple of parking lot dings like a door edge or shopping cart would inflict, the front air dam under the bumper has wear area across most of its bottom edge and has quite a few rock chip spots. I am trying to be very descriptive but please note these are all minor/normal wear and tear issues my intention is that you are able to able to make the most informed decision possible about this Mr2. a really good detailer could fine tune the chips and dings easily, I'm pretty sure this car has never been detailed, it hasn't really needed it. when I pull up to the Toyota owners club meeting the car gets plenty of adulation.
the "original" paint job overall is in pretty good shape, not noticeably faded "thanks to it garage life" but does have normal scratches from cleaning and the above mentioned minor chips and dings and scratches.
the parking brake holds well and feels "tight/fresh".
please feel free to ask questions and offer factoids.
as mentioned no warranty, no guaranty. sold as is, where is.
here's thought; if any of you "actual bidders" are serious about the miles, let me know, I'll stop driving it. it is such a head turner :)

BMW i5 could get Toyota-sourced hydrogen power
Tue, 18 Nov 2014It's starting to feel like the automotive landscape is right on the cusp of a boom in hydrogen-fueled vehicles. After all, the Toyota FCV is nearly ready, Volkswagen is readying a fuel cell concept for this week's Los Angeles Auto Show and Hyundai already sells its Tucson Fuel Cell. The next big name to add to that list might be BMW, as the company's co-development deal with Toyota starts to bear fruit.
According to Autocar, BMW may use a version of the fuel cell system from the Toyota FCV in the future i5. As part of its eco-oriented i sub-brand, the i5 is expected to be a stretched version of the i3 (pictured above) with extra rear legroom and cargo space. It's unclear at the moment whether a battery-powered pure electric powertrain will also be available. If accurate, then the rumor could give the Bavarian brand a counterattack against Mercedes-Benz' planned fuel cell vehicle in 2017.
BMW and Toyota first signed the memorandum of understanding to co-develop fuel cells, lightweight technology and a sports car back in 2012, and they made the arrangement official in late 2013. So far, few details on the progress of the work have been disclosed, but the performance model has been rumored to use a front-engine, all-wheel drive layout with supercapacitors.
Watch a Camry driver in full road rage
Mon, 29 Apr 2013There are vehicles that, fair or not, will forever be associated with jerky drivers. But as this very recent footage from an in-car camera shows, even the most mundane of sedans can be piloted by an ass.
In this video, the driver of one very beige Toyota Camry is driving like a person choked with rage. Though we don't see which (if any) actions by our camera car might have lead up to the tirade, we do see the Camry driver swerving from lane to lane, in multiple attempts to get in front of and brake check the couple in the recording.
According to the text associated with the YouTube video, the offending incident took place last week, on a section of I-880 near Fremont, CA. The uploader has gone so far as to include the date, time and license plate number of the Camry driver, in hopes, we guess, that some kind of legal action can be taken against him. Take a closer look for yourself in the video below.
At least 15 states jockeying for Toyota and Mazda factory jobs
Fri, Aug 18 2017Just a few weeks ago, Mazda and Toyota announced a partnership that would lead to an all-new $1.6 billion plant here in the United States. The plant will build EVs and is expected to employ roughly 4,000 people directly while creating thousands of indirect jobs through suppliers, shipping and more. The Detroit Free Press reports that as many as 15 Midwestern and Southern states are understandably interested in striking a deal with the automakers. Most of the states already have ties to the auto industry. While the Midwest has traditionally been home to auto manufacturing in the United States, in the past 25 years or so, the South has made a big push, offering tax incentives and a union-free workforce. Alabama alone is home to facilities from Honda, Hyundai, Mercedes-Benz and Toyota. Others house a burgeoning tech or manufacturing industry ripe for the picking. Freep breaks down the pros and cons for each state, with much of the focus being on supply chains and a reliable and plentiful workforce. The latter is of particular concern in states like Alabama and Michigan that already have a big auto industry. Toyota may feel those areas have already been tapped for talent. Most of the states are along or adjacent to Interstate 75 and its extended roots, so others like Texas and Iowa will have to fight hard if they want this facility. It's only been a few weeks, though. With manufacturing jobs in such great demand and elected officials eager to show they're seeking them for their states, it wouldn't be surprising if a few more joined the fray.
