Listed for sale is my completely original / stock 1989 Toyota Supra Turbo Targa.  The car spent the majority of its life in California and overall, is in excellent condition.  It has always been adult driven and well cared for.  I have 4 years of maintenance records.  The body panels are all straight and contain no filler.  It gets a lot of approving stares and thumbs up as I drive it to events.  I was going to hold on to the car and show it over the summer, but we're adding another antique to the collection and we are out of garage space.  Speaking of antiques... the 1989 Supra is considered to be an antique by classic car insurance companies.  Since it is an antique, full comp and collision on this Supra costs me under $100 per year.  


The motor was rebuilt several years ago and runs strong.  It has no leaks.  The transmission is a 4 speed automatic that shifts hard and fast.  The turbo charger is strong, putting out about 6 lbs of pressure.  The TEMS electronic suspension system works great.  The tires are new.  There are minor cosmetic issues that will need to be attended to by the next owner / collector, including some small holes on the interior door panels and a heat crack in the dash panel.  The car may also need an oxygen sensor replacement at some point

btw - the mileage stated on the vehicle history report is correct. I purchased the car from Missouri, which does not require that mileage be stated on titles of older cars. NJ DMV does not have a "code" for this anomaly, so they simply use their "N"ot actual mileage code for cars coming in from Missouri and California.  I am working with the NJ DMV regulatory people to get this gap in their legislation corrected.

Scion trying to build business case for FR-S convertible as Subaru bows out

Tue, 28 Jan 2014

Hope may remain for a convertible version of the Scion FR-S, according to a report from Ward's Auto. You'll recall that rumors were swirling about the feasibility of a rear-drive Toyobaru convertible as early as October, and that back in November, Subaru - which makes the FR-S, Subaru BRZ and Toyota GT86 - essentially nixed the idea of an open-topped variant.
"We make the car, so if we don't make it, it can't happen," brand chief Yasuyuki Yoshinaga told Automotive News, according to Ward's, at the Tokyo Motor Show. "Our engineering department told me that losing the entire roof requires a complete redesign of the structure. It would need a big change."
Despite Yoshinaga-san's arguments against a droptop variant, Toyota is apparently still considering the model. Speaking to media at the 2014 North American International Auto Show, Scion's US vice president, Doug Murtha, hinted that the rear-drive droptop was in the works.

Toyota again claims Corolla outsold Focus worldwide

Wed, 10 Apr 2013

Toyota isn't convinced the Ford Focus was the best-selling nameplate globally last year. Bloomberg reports that for the second time in seven months, both Toyota and Ford are laying claim to the title. Ford cites R.L. Polk & Co. data that says the automaker moved some 1.02 million Focus models in 2012 compared to just 872,774 Toyota Corolla units. But Toyota says the actual figure is closer to 1.16 million Corolla models.
Last year, Ford said it took the sales crown through the fist half of 2012 based on information from IHS Automotive, but Toyota pointed out those numbers left out models like the Corolla-based Matrix and Auris, as well as the Corolla Fielder and Scion xB-based Corolla Rumion. Whether or not Toyota's belief that all these cars should be counted in the Corolla bucket is accurate or not is seemingly up for debate... as is the question of why it matters so much to both parties.
This time around, Ford is holding the line that the Focus is the "best-selling nameplate," with Erich Merkle, a US sales analyst with Ford saying the company's figure is, "a pure number that is verified by a third party." Toyota, meanwhile, has requested clarification from Polk.
