Here is a rare and collectible 1992 Toyota Supra Turbo Targa with 110,200 miles, extremely low for a 21 year old car. The 92 Supra is by far the rarest MK3 Supra as only a little over 1000 were sold in the US. The 92 was the ONLY year the color Teal was offered and the ONLY year which the shadow gray leather seats were offered. It is also rare to find a 92 with Targa top as most 92s had either hard top or a sunroof. This car is almost completely stock, even the factory radio and factory exhaust which is very quiet.
I have only owned this about 6 months, bought it with the intentions of keeping it, but poor health has made me lose interest. In the 6 months I have owned it , I have only driven it a total of about 100 miles. I would STRONGLY suggest it be trailered or shipped as it has not been driven on long enough trips to be proven.
It has some positives and some negatives. As for positives, the previous owner spent almost $6000 on repairs and I will furnish his paperwork. These repairs include a rebuilt head, rebuilt turbo, new head gasket, and some front end work, all in the last 1500 miles. The engine sounds great, very smooth, no smoke , no knocks. The automatic transmission shifts properly and I noticed the cruise works. I believe all lights work and all glass is good, no cracks. The paint appears to be original with only some light touch ups on small dings. The trim around the windshield and rear glass is much better than most MK3 Supras. The interior is the best of the shadow gray leather I have seen. ( I have owned and parted out MK3 Supras for several years) The dash is mint, steering wheel is good, door panels are good, rear carpet is good, hatch cover is very good, rear seats are amazing, first original leather Supra rear seats I have seen which are not cracked on top. The tail lights have no cracks, as this is hard to find. It also has a new battery.
For the negatives, there is a sound ,a sort of rubbing / grinding sound, I believe is in the right front wheel, could be in the wheel itself, could be a wheel bearing, or it could simply need aligned, I don't know, and I have not felt like messing with it. The brakes seem soft and may need some attention. The heater works fine, but the Air Conditioning does not, all components appear to be there, it may just need charged. This is a 21 year old car and it has its share of parking lot dings and scratches. There is also a dent on the passenger rear quarter as can be seen in pics and the rear bumper and rear spoiler each have a bump. I noticed one spot on the drivers door where there is some rust bubbling. This car will come with a full size spare of the same 5 spoke 92 aluminum wheel, the original targa tool kit, the original 92 Supra owners manual in the original pouch from the dealer where it was bought new. I will assist in shipping by taking it to a shipping transfer point for a nominal fee. I will accept deposit by Pay Pal ONLY, the remainder will have to be in cash or a certified check if it is to be shipped . This is a very low reserve auction , please bid to win. I can take pictures of any other areas you may want to see if you ask for them. If you have less than a feedback of 10 please email me and convince me you are real and serious or your bid will be canceled. Thanks for looking.

Couple survives 50-foot fall from overpass in Toyota
Tue, 11 Feb 2014It doesn't matter the make or model - modern vehicles are technological miracles when it comes to occupant protection. Take this story out of New York City, which involved two people going for a very wild ride in a Toyota Matrix.
Carlos and Raquel Broadbelt were on the Cross Bronx Expressway overpass when they hit a patch of ice while dodging a pothole, sending them hurtling into a guardrail and over the side of the overpass. They fell 50 feet onto the road below. Despite the catastrophic accident - and the mangled Toyota - both driver and passenger walked away. The couple spent a night in the hospital just for observation.
The Broadbelts' miraculous survival has even surprised doctors, who told Dave Carlin from CBS New York they'd never seen an accident like it. Take a look below for the full news report from CBS New York.
Toyota sells 3-millionth Prius
Sun, 07 Jul 2013Three generations in sixteen years and more than three million units sold worldwide - as of the end of June, those are the stats on the Toyota Prius. Even though Toyota says Prius sales might not reach the goal of 250,000 units this year, the little hybrid that could still doesn't have any problem flying off dealer lots. The second-generation Prius sold 1.2 million examples in its eight-year lifespan, and the third generation, introduced in 2009, has sold 1.7 million examples in just four years.
Toyota is also touting its investment in future powertrains, some 790 billion yen ($7.9 billion US) on research and development into new platforms and components, and "environmental technology development."
The press release below has more details, the future undoubtedly has more Priuses Prii in it.
Toyota prices fuel cell sedan $70K in Japan, coming to US and Europe next summer [w/video]
Wed, 25 Jun 2014Toyota has finally unveiled its FCV hydrogen fuel cell sedan and its Japanese price. We won't have to wait too long to see the first of these revolutionary vehicles on the roads. It will go on sale in Japan in April 2015 and will come to the US and Europe later that summer.
In Japan, the FCV will be priced at roughly 7 million yen before taxes ($68,810 at current exchange rates). However, Toyota makes it clear in the press release that we shouldn't try to extrapolate US MSRP from that figure, saying that official pricing for the US and Europe has not yet been determined. As will be the case in the US, sales in Japan will be limited to parts of the country that already have a hydrogen refueling infrastructure (that means you, California).
The production version of the FCV looks almost identical to the concept from last year's Tokyo Motor Show. There is a new vertical strip of LEDs at each corner of the front air intake and real sideview windows, instead of the nubs on the prototype. The weird squiggles from the rear trim are also gone in favor of a more production-ready look, but the taillights survive the changes mostly intact.
