I have for sale a bone-stock, unadulterated 1991 Toyota MR2 Turbo with 84k original miles on it.  It's fully loaded e.g. 5-speed, Turbo, T-tops w/original t-top bags, Black leather interior, power windows, power locks, power mirrors, power windows, original AM/FM Radio with CD/Cassette, A/C, front and rear spoiler along with other standard equipment.

Unlike most other MR2's with leather interior, there are NO rips or tears in either seat and the tops do not leak.  The car was originally from Canada so the speedometer is in Kilometers. (there's still the "Candian Yacht Club" sticker in the window from the previous owner).  The original owner then moved to Florida where he traded it in at a dealership.  I bought it from a Car Auction in Tampa, FL in November of 2007.  I bought a one-way ticket to Tampa, paid $8000 cash for the car and drove it back to New York.  It had 64,527 miles on it when I picked it up (103,846 km's) Since then, it's been garage kept and NEVER driven in snow and RARELY in wet weather . . only if I got caught in the rain while already out.  In the 7 1/2 years that I've had it, I've only put 20,000 miles on it averaging not even 3000 miles each year.  Mechanically, besides Oil Changes, I had to replace the igniter about a year after I got it, I had the cooling system flushed, the front left caliper was stuck at one point and one of the front fog lights needed a new bulb.  I also put some Yokohoma AVS ES100's about 15,000 miles ago. .the fronts still look okay, the rears are about done.  Other than that, it's been maintenance free and an awesome ride considering it's going on 25 years old and entering official "antique car" mileage.

The car starts right up and you can feel the power surge when the turbo kicks in.  I always meant to "completely restore" the car e.g. new shocks, bushings, paint, re-finish the engine, etc., etc. but driving it was fun enough and I never really had the time to do it right and doubt I will any time in the near future :-(

The car is in beautiful shape save for the expected nicks and pebble spots on the front and natural slight fading of the paint which is original as far as I can tell.  There is 1 RUST area on the lower quarter-panel on the passenger side at the base of the rear wheel well. . .apparently dirt/mud collected there and caused the oxidation.  That's the only rust spot on the car. . .front trunk is spotless as is the rear trunk as well as everywhere else.  Interior is also beautiful.  2 spots on the interior are a cracked ash tray lid and a scratch on the glove compartment door.

I hate to part with this car. . .it was really hard to find an MR2 Turbo that hadn't been messed with in any way and still had relatively low mileage ~ I kept looking on Ebay on and off for about 2 years and came across this one. . I actually set my bid as high as $10,000 and was surprised it went for only $8000.  These cars are getting more and more rare as time goes by ~ I don't need to tell anyone who knows MR2's. . .if you're unfamiliar with the production and value of MR2's then you're most likely not looking at this auction.

I realize there are no good pictures of the interior or engine compartment or trunk.  Can't find them on my computer right now. . will take some and get them up here in the next few days. 

Sorry for the book. . .gonna miss this car. . .good luck and happy bidding!

Zombie cars: Discontinued vehicles that aren't dead yet

Thu, Jan 6 2022

Car models come and go, but as revealed by monthly sales data, once a car is discontinued, it doesn't just disappear instantly. And in the case of some models, vanishing into obscurity can be a slow, tedious process. That's the case with the 12 cars we have here. All of them have been discontinued, but car companies keep racking up "new" sales with them. There are actually more discontinued cars that are still registering new sales than what we decided to include here. We kept this list to the oldest or otherwise most interesting vehicles still being sold as new, including a supercar. We'll run the list in alphabetical order, starting with *drumroll* ... BMW 6 Series: 55 total sales BMW quietly removed the 6 Series from the U.S. market during the 2019 model year. It had been available in three configurations, a hardtop coupe, a convertible and a sleek four-door coupe-like shape.   BMW i8: 18 total sales We've always had a soft spot for the BMW i8, despite the fact that it never quite fit into a particular category. It was sporty, but nowhere near as fast as similarly-priced competitors. It looked very high-tech and boasted a unique carbon fiber chassis design and a plug-in hybrid powertrain, but wasn't really designed for maximum efficiency or maximum performance. Still, the in-betweener was very cool to look at and drive, and 18 buyers took one home over the course of 2021.   Chevy Impala: 750 total sales The Impala represented classic American tastes at a time when American tastes were shifting away from soft-riding sedans with big interior room and trunk space and into higher-riding crossovers. A total of 750 sales were inked last year.   Chrysler 200: 15 total sales The Chrysler 200 was actually a pretty nice sedan, with good looks and decent driving dynamics let down by a lack of roominess, particularly in the back seat. Of course, as we said regarding the Chevy Impala, the number of Americans in the market for sedans is rapidly winding down, and other automakers are following Chrysler's footsteps in canceling their slow-selling four-doors. Even if Chrysler never really found its footing in the ultra-competitive midsize sedan segment, apparently dealerships have a few leftover 2017 200s floating around. And for some reason, 15 buyers decided to sign the dotted line to take one of these aging sedans home last year.

GMC Hummer EV SUV first drive, RIP Camaro, Ferrari Roma Spider | Autoblog Podcast # 773

Fri, Mar 24 2023

In this episode of the Autoblog Podcast, Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore is joined by News Editor Joel Stocksdale. They start off with one of the week's biggest official news items — the impending death of the sixth-gen Chevrolet Camaro. On the subject of powerful American cars, they pivot to a teaser from Stellantis execs that there are big things ahead for its Dodge Charger SRT Daytona Banshee concept. From there, they look at Ferrari's new topless Roma and then get into Ford's multi-billion-dollar electric vehicle pivot. Speaking of expensive EVs, Joel just got back from driving the new GMC Hummer SUV. He also had the new F-150 Lightning Pro in his driveway, and that's followed by Greg's update on Autoblog's long-term Toyota Sienna.  Autoblog Podcast # 773 Get The Podcast Apple Podcasts – Subscribe to the Autoblog Podcast in iTunes Spotify – Subscribe to the Autoblog Podcast on Spotify RSS – Add the Autoblog Podcast feed to your RSS aggregator MP3 – Download the MP3 directly Rundown News Chevrolet Camaro production will officially end after 2024 model year Dodge CEO teases more to come from Charger SRT Daytona Banshee Ferrari Roma Spider returns a front-engined soft top to the lineup Ford Model e losing billions as it says EV unit should be seen as startup What we're driving Ford F-150 Lightning Pro 2024 GMC Hummer EV SUV 2023 Toyota Sienna Platinum AWD Feedback Email – Podcast@Autoblog.com Review the show on Apple Podcasts Autoblog is now live on your smart speakers and voice assistants with the audio Autoblog Daily Digest.

Toyota sizzle reel gives better look at i-Road Geneva concept

Tue, 26 Feb 2013

Toyota is taking the tiny tandem Tango to Tron town. In a teaser video for the new i-Road, debuting at the Geneva Motor Show next week, we catch a light-bike-like glimpse of Toyota's quirky tandem-seat concept. We still don't know much about the vehicle itself, but the video does flash the words "fun, compact, emissions-free," which suggests this is an electric ride. Then comes the apparent tagline: "i Roll, i Rock i Road." An indication that the tilting image we see in the video isn't just a special effect, perhaps? We'll have to wait until we get to Switzerland next week to find out. Until then, you can watch the video below.
In more earthly reveals, Toyota will also show off its hotly anticipate FT-86 Open sports car concept and Auris Touring Sports wagon on its Geneva show stand.
