MOTOR TREND CAR OF THE YEAR!!

I purchased this car in 2008. When it is not being driven, it spends 100% of its time indoors and covered. It is the very definition of a garage queen!

I am the second owner of this classic automobile. The first owner, a gentleman reaching retirement age, actually interviewed potential buyers to be sure his baby was going to a good home. I have kept in touch with him all these years, and he is always telling me he made the right choice when he sold it to me.

Highlights from 2007 before I owned the car:

Engine overhauled with new piston rings, crankshaft, all new bearings, and the valves were reseated.
New oil pump, clutch, timing belt, new universal joints for the drive shaft.
Tires rated for 60,000 miles (still have less than 10,000 miles of usage!)
The interior is all original cloth, and is meticulously clean.
Complete repainting
The skirt trim is a special coating with a flexible chip-absorbing coat.
New radiator

As you can see, when I bought the car it was already in great shape. My contributions seem small by comparison, but here are some of the things I've done:

realigned the hood
replaced the hood emblem
replaced the leather boot and the shift stick
reupholstered the center arm rest
replaced the seat trim
replaced the antenna
replaced the fog lights
valve covers professionally restored with wrinkle coat
replaced whiskers around the headlights
dyed sun faded rear head rests

I have had an absolutely wonderful time with this car. No car will ever be perfect, but this is pretty close for a 30 year old car, and it sure has been fun trying reach perfection. I've been lucky enough to have spent time with this car, which needed nothing more than a few cosmetic improvements. I've driven it like a true collector car. You know... sunny days on weekends kind of stuff. In fact, I've averaged under 750 miles per year. But they have been really fun miles!

You'll see the car has earned "HISTORIC" plates from the State of New Jersey.

Known issues:

The ONE non-oem concession... an aftermarket oil pressure gage.
The speedometer reads about 10% higher than actual speed.
The black metal trim around the rear hatch window could use some touch-up
Belt molding on side window (the small window behind the door) is chipped.

Ever owned a collector car? I was very surprised to find out that my insurance was just $125 per year for some pretty decent coverage. I couldn't say what your rates would be, but if you treat it like a collector car you should go to a collector's insurance company. Second, I was pleasantly surprised to find a very helpful owner's group for these MK2 Supras. I have been able to ask questions, search for answers, find hard-to-find parts, and even attend meets to see what others are doing with their Supras. I highly recommend this community!

Here’s a chance to own a very solid and historic collector car. Please check my feedback, which is at 100%, and bid with confidence. In fact, check my feedback since I joined eBay 17 years ago, and that too is at 100%.

As this car is also available for sale locally, I reserve the right to end this auction early. Please don’t wait until the last minute and then lose out!

Local pickup only. If you want to make arrangements to have a shipper pick up the vehicle, that certainly is okay. Good, cleared funds paid in full required before the vehicle is released.

Title is in hand, free and clear. All costs of transfer, taxes, etc., are the buyer's responsibility.

Toyota, Daihatsu and Suzuki team up to unbox some fun-size electric kei vans

Thu, May 18 2023

The G7 Summit is happening in Hiroshima, Japan, right now and some automakers have taken the opportunity to announce new projects. Toyota, their wholly owned subsidiary Daihatsu, and Suzuki (of which Toyota owns about 5%) made news with a trio of electric micro-vans built to kei car specifications. The battery-electric vans are part of an industry-wide push toward carbon neutrality. Kei-class vehicles, in addition to limited displacement gasoline engines, have strict dimensional restrictions that allow them to navigate the often narrow streets in dense urban areas. They're also privilege to certain tax breaks and parking benefits.Â [gallery ids="2474953,2474954"] The engine size rules obviously don't apply to the electric vans, but they will still conform to the size boundaries. Kei vans are often used to solve the "last mile" problem in logistics since they're able to whiz around crowded streets inaccessible by larger commercial vehicles.Â Daihatsu, which specializes in kei cars, will build the vans and name their variant the HiJet Cargo. The HiJet name has been a consistent one in the company's lineup since 1960, but these new versions will be front-wheel-drive in contrast to the rear-wheel-drive gasoline variants. Toyota's version will be called the Pixis Van, while Suzuki will be named the Every, a nameplate that's been around since 1982. Aside from the badges the vans appear identical. Range is said to be approximately 200km (124 miles) on a single charge.Â The exhibition was held in conjunction with the Japan Automobile Manufacturers Association, which former Toyota CEO Akio Toyoda heads. Toyoda stepped down from the top position at the company his grandfather founded in April, but still takes a overseer role as Chairman. Toyoda was criticized for being slow to adopt EVs, and new CEO Koji Sato has emphasized the role of battery-electrics moving forward while still taking a multi-front approach to carbon neutrality with hydrogen and hybrids. These vans were likely in development before Toyoda's retirement, though.

2016 Green Truck of the Year, Commercial Green Car of the Year finalists

Sat, Oct 24 2015

Not only are commercial-grade haulers getting more green love lately, they're getting more different kinds of green love. The 2016 Green Truck of the Year, the second time the award has been handed out, is being decided by judges from Green Car Journal and the San Antonio Auto & Truck Show. This year the award is joined by the new 2016 Commercial Green Car of the Year, which crowns one of the little vans increasingly used by small business as cargo and delivery vehicles. The Green Truck of the Year finalists are the Chevrolet Colorado Duramax (pictured), Ford F-150, GMC Canyon Duramax, Nissan Titan XD, and Toyota Tacoma. The first three of those were on last year's list, but since they are completely new or upgraded for 2016 - Ford with its all-aluminum body, the General Motors twins with the new diesel Duramax engine - they qualify for entry again. The Ram 1500 EcoDiesel won last year. The Commercial Green Car finalists are the Chevrolet City Express, Ford Transit Connect, Mercedes-Benz Metris, Nissan NV200, and Ram ProMaster City. You can read more details in the presser below, and the awards will be announced in San Antonio sometime during the show from November 19-22. San Antonio Auto & Truck Show Announces 2016 Green Truck of the Year and Commercial Green Car of the Year Finalists SAN ANTONIO, Oct. 22, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Green Car Journal and the San Antonio Auto & Truck Show have announced finalists for the 2016 Green Truck of the Year™ and 2016 Commercial Green Car of the YearÂ™ awards. The Green Truck of the YearÂ™ nominees are the Chevrolet Colorado Duramax, Ford F-150, GMC Canyon Duramax, Nissan Titan XD, and Toyota Tacoma. Vying for the all-new 2016 Commercial Green Car of the YearÂ™ award are the Chevrolet City Express, Ford Transit Connect, Mercedes-Benz Metris, Nissan NV200, and Ram ProMaster City. "Over the past few decades, new car models have benefitted from design and technology improvements that have brought higher fuel efficiency and greater levels of environmental compatibility," said Green Car Journal and CarsOfChange.com Editor and Publisher Ron Cogan. "With models like these ten deserving finalists, we're witnessing the pickup and light commercial vehicle field enjoying the same attention." The new Commercial Green Car of the YearÂ™ award is part of an expanded awards program presented at this year's 2015 San Antonio Auto & Truck Show.
