Thank you for looking. For sale is a real Japanese classic - a good running, but somewhat below-average condition 1987 Toyota Supra. The 3.0L I6 engine runs very well. Transmission shifts smoothly and properly. Tune-up has been done. Car drives quite well and is in driving condition with all exterior lights fully functional. The gas tank has been replaced and fuel system flush performed. Air-condition (A/C) is not working, blows hot. Removable hard-top drips when raining on the passenger-side, probably a gasket. The interior has some rough areas, particularly due to sun damage and age. Exterior trim around rear window loose. Some exterior door molding on passenger side is loose. The car as a few small dents, scratches, paint is rather faded. The sound of the exhaust also suggests a small hole in the system somewhere (although its a cool exhaust note). So, the car is overall mechanically sound, but has imperfections in the interior and exterior. This is not a 'good condition' vehicle. It is fair or below average in some areas. Keep in mind it's a 27 year old vehicle. Would make a good first car, project car, or parts car. Opening price is $300 (starting bid) + $199 (admin fee) = $499!!! SOLD AS-IS with NO RESERVE! Bid with confidence!

Please note the following:

 - Vehicle runs well (engine and transmission).
 - Suspension and vehicle rides well for its age, condition, and miles.
 - Gas tank replaced. Complete fuel system flush.
 - Tune-up has been performed (new plugs, etc.).
 - A/C is not working.
 - Interior is fair to below-average, rough in some areas particularly exposed to the sun.
 - Paint appears to be original but neglected and sun-exposed.
 - Cracks on dashboard and throughout the interior, sun-exposed.
 - Drip/leak on hard-top by passenger.
 - Other imperfections throughout.

Vehicle Condition: Average, Below-Average, Rough in Some Areas
   Outstanding - Exceptional mechanical, exterior and interior condition; requires no reconditioning.
   Clean - Some normal wear but no major mechanical or cosmetic problems; may require limited reconditioning.

    Average - May have a few mechanical and/or cosmetic problems and may require a considerable amount of reconditioning

Lexus, Mazda win KBB 5-Year Cost To Own Awards

Wed, 05 Feb 2014

We focus a lot on what new cars are like to drive, but it's difficult on a one-week loan to really get a sense of what a car is like to live with. Sure, we try to recreate that sense with our long-term vehicles, but even after a year, it's impossible to know fully learn about a car, particularly in terms of reliability and cost of repairs. For 2014 model year vehicles, Kelley Blue Book has put together a list of the most affordable vehicles over a five-year period.
At the tippy top of the list are Mazda and Lexus, with the Zoom-Zoom automaker winning the award for best non-luxury brand. Lexus, meanwhile, was the most affordable luxury marque over a five-year period. It's interesting to note, though, that not a single Mazda won its segment in this year's awards.
General Motors did quite well, taking eight segments, including both the subcompact and plug-in segments, with the gas-powered Chevrolet Spark and Spark EV. The Chevy Camaro SS and ZL1 took the high-performance car award. Toyota was well represented, with five winners split between the main brand (Corolla, Prius C and Tacoma) and Lexus (LS and RX).

Toyota retires robots in favor of humans to improve automaking process

Sat, 12 Apr 2014

Mitsuru Kawai is overseeing a return to the old ways at Toyota factories throughout Japan. Having spent 50 years at the Japanese automaker, Kawai remembers when manual skills were prized at the company and "experienced masters used to be called gods, and they could make anything." Company CEO Akio Toyoda personally chose Kawai to develop programs to teach workers metalcraft such as how to forge a crankshaft from scratch, and 100 workstations that formerly housed machines have been set aside for human training.
The idea is that when employees personally understand the fabrication of components, they will understand how to make better machines. Said Kawai, "To be the master of the machine, you have to have the knowledge and the skills to teach the machine." Lessons learned by the newly skilled workers have led to shorter production lines - in one case, 96percent shorter - improved parts production and less scrap.
Taking time to give workers the knowledge to solve problems instead of merely having them "feed parts into a machine and call somebody for help when it breaks down," Kawai's initiative is akin to that of Toyota's Operations Management Consulting Division, where new managers are given a length of time to finish a project but not given any help - they have to learn on their own. It's not a step back from Toyota's quest to build more than ten million cars a year; it's an effort to make sure that this time they don't sacrifice quality while making the effort. Said Kawai, "We need to become more solid and get back to basics."

Race Recap: 2014 24 Hours of Le Mans defines 'endurance'

Mon, 16 Jun 2014

Commenting on the rush of events that rocked beginning and end of the 24 Hours of Le Mans, Paul Truswell of Radio Le Mans said "the race is about the ability to endure, not just the ability of drivers to do what they do for a long time." The entire race machine, all the way down to the pit boards and radios, has to survive the stress and abuse of the entire day. This was the race to prove those words.
There were two Toyotas, two Porsches and three Audis, five of the seven led the race at some point, six of the seven ran in the top three. Toyota will be hugely disappointed that it didn't win when its car and drivers were so, so strong, but they gave Audi the kind of scare we haven't seen since the best of Peugeot's days, and Toyota did a better job of it even in the loss. Porsche blew away everyone's expectations, falling 3.5 hours short of a fairy tale ending that would have made Disney cry.
But Le Mans doesn't really do fairy tales. Well, not that fairy tale. Audi's Twitter handle during the event was #welcomechallenges. As usual, Le Mans answered for the entire field.
