Very Rare Toyota Mr2 Supercharged (factory Oem Aw11 First Gen 4agz-e on 2040-cars
Chula Vista, California, United States
|
Up for your consideration is a rare model produced and manufactured by Toyota.
A beloved MR2 with factory Supercharged motor! Only 210,000 original miles. 3 owners since new! Automatic transmission Working A/C Fair paint but it is red and as you know red fades so this was a repaint along the way before it arrived in my hands. Still very presentable, mint it is not. Interior is lovely and heavy velour fabric was used. Dash does have cracks in it which most MR2's of this era were prone too. Carpet is torn, completely usable but again, depending on how mint you want it would need replacing. All tires are about a year old and have 80% tread left. Warranty from Discount tire is valid. Front strut cartridges where replaced recently with new KYB ones but still have some clunks when hitting a pothole. Possible bushings need replacing in the suspension. Again typical. Radiator has been rodded ad cleaned with a complete cooling system flush. Only done as a preventative measure and the car has never been overheated. Distributor has been R&R within two years. The 4AGZ-E motor sounds and performs healthy. There are some minor leaks. I do not know from where as it could be any number of places. If you are familiar with MR2's than you know this is par for the course. Typical. Keep in mind the car is close to 26 years old and is not a new vehicle. it will have minor stuff that need tending too but still drives great! The power to weight ratio is great and a hoot to drive. Very Go-Kart like. Speedy Gonzalez as it like to be called can roll with the best of them, especially in turns. A low stance and great suspension really serves the driver looking to have fun in the twisties or at your next autocross event. All electrical works but at this time the alternator has given up the ghost so it will need replacing before said fun can be had. A fresh battery is also needed. With a new battery it will start and drive but not very far before the battery goes dead. Again, alternator. About a $100 and two hours labor. It has T-tops but missing the inside covers. I have tinted all windows to cut down on sun glare and protect the interior from fading. A/C works great. The blower could be stronger but it is what it is. No power steering. Great steering radius. Currently registered till JULY and has Arizona Plates and clear Arizona Title. This is a modern classic and gaining value over time. Only 1 in 10 cars sold were Supercharged. With a little work than can be a true looker and collectors piece. Car is currently located in San Diego and if your in the area inspections are welcomed. If transporting out of state I can assist but ultimately it is buyers responsibility to have the car paid in full as well as finding transport company. You are the expert and no warranties are given and implied. As-is where is. Also as a side note, antenna motor broken so does not go up and down. Drivers side window switch broken. Window does not go up or down. No power locks. |

Toyota recalls 209,000 FJ Cruisers over seatbelt issue
Sat, 16 Mar 2013Toyota has announced that it will be issuing a substantial recall of the FJ Cruiser for a problem that could cause the front seatbelt retractors to separate from the vehicle body. This recall will apply to all FJ Cruisers - from 2007 through 2013 - totaling around 209,000 units.
The problem stems from the FJ Cruiser's pillarless door opening design that has the front-occupant seatbelts attached to the rear doors. Toyota says that when the rear doors are "repeatedly and forcefully closed," the retractor could completely separate from the door frame.
While there is no information about this recall from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration yet, Toyota says that there have been no accidents or injuries associated with this issue. No specific fix or recall date are given, but the official press release is posted below.
Jay Leno gets behind the curtain on the design of the Toyota FT-1 concept
Mon, 07 Apr 2014Hinting at the future of Toyota performance vehicles, the FT-1 concept was one of the stars of the Detroit Auto Show this year. It even nabbed fourth place in our Editors' Choice list. While he's a few months behind the car's official reveal, Jay Leno managed to get the only existing concept of the sports coupe wheeled into his garage to take a closer look, and he's pretty impressed.
Leno speaks with Alex Shen and William Chergosky, the exterior and interior chief designers of the FT-1 respectively, to get a better idea of the inspirations behind the concept. Jay heaps high praise on it for mixing Italian and Japanese design and says he likes the look even more than the Lexus LFA. The coupe isn't a product of either country, though. It was penned at Toyota's CALTY Design Research center in Newport Beach, CA.
The designers go into the entire history of the FT-1, and Shen even admits that Toyota design lacks an emotional factor at the moment. It's a fascinating interview behind some of the little touches you might miss at first glance. Unfortunately, the model doesn't have the green light for production yet and may never get made. In any case, scroll down to watch Leno swoon over the coupe.
