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. |

Zombie cars: Discontinued vehicles that aren't dead yet
Thu, Jan 6 2022Car 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.
Toyota drops detail about 414-hp Hybrid-R concept powertrain
Fri, 30 Aug 2013The Toyota Yaris Hybrid-R Concept has been teased already, offering up little glimpses and details of the Frankfurt-bound vehicle. And while those few, shadowy shots have been great, we've really wanted to know how this hatchback would deliver its promised 400-plus horsepower. Under hood sits a 1.6-liter, race-derived, direct-injection, turbocharged four-cylinder that powers the front wheels. Sounds peachy, but with 414 horsepower splashed across the page, we're going to need something more than a 1.6-liter, turbo four.
A supercapacitor, developed from the Toyota TS030 Hybrid Le Mans racer sits in place of a hybrid's traditional battery packs. The benefit, according to Toyota, is that power can be more rapidly absorbed and discharged than in a traditional battery system, like nickel metal-hydride.
The gas engine is joined by a trio of 60-horsepower electric motors. Two of the them power the rear wheels, while the third sits between the engine and the six-speed, sequential gearbox. Developing the same amount of power as the rear-axle motors, this centrally located motor channels power to the race-derived supercapacitor during braking, and ships extra grunt to the rear wheels under acceleration when the front wheels start to lose grip. Besides the distributive power of the central motor, the rear electric motors can adjust the amount of torque flowing to each wheel, much like a differential.
Sales incentive growth clustered around brands with few CUVs, trucks
Wed, 24 Sep 2014While it's arguably been around the longest, the dominance of the four-door sedan has been under threat for many years. As a further sign of the hurtin' that SUVs and crossovers have put on today's four-doors, a new report from Automotive News points to the increasing use of incentives by brands reliant on cars and light on CUVs and pickups.
Honda, Toyota, Volkswagen and Kia have all been stung by double-digit increases in their incentives-to-transaction price ratio, according to AN, which cites data from TrueCar. Honda's ratio is up 14 percent, while Toyota, VW and Kia are up 18, 15 and 19 percent, respectively.
"Most of the incentive growth we have seen is in product segments with low demand - midsized or large sedans," TrueCar CEO John Krafcik told AN. "As this trend goes on, the brands with three-sedan strategies are going to be in worse shape on incentive spending than the crossover brands."
