This car is the nicest 82-85 Celica I've ever seen (non-Supra) and it just about never made it to Ebay. Here is a video of the car right after I got it http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4gYh5_frYi4
And another video of when it was mostly complete I bought this car a short time ago sight unseen from a junkyard, I was going to part it to use parts for another Celica. When this car arrived on a tow truck, it was much better than I expected, dirty and faded outside but when I opened the door, I found a flawless interior and every piece of documentation in the glove box. It was far better than the car I was working on. I immediately called the towing company and inquired about the paperwork for the car, they told me that they had never filed for a certificate of destruction and for an extra fee I could get a clear title to the car, which I did without hesitation. This car was bought brand new at Sutherlin Toyota in Clearwater, Florida. It is a nicely equipped Celica, 5spd. A/C, cruise control, power sunroof, and factory rear louvers. It has been completely repainted, it has only 117K miles on it and it absolutely drives like a brand new car.
I will walk you around this car and describe it as I know it.
Exterior When I got this car, it was dirty, faded and had a dent on the side. It has been repainted in the correct Super Red color. It had one dent which was professionally repaired prior to paint. It has zero rust anywhere. All of the lights, plastic, etc. are near perfect. The tires are perfect Bridgestones. The wheels could use some minor detailing and recleared but there are no major flaws. The car looks great, like a new Celica sitting on a lot. Interior This car was obviously garage kept and it had window tint, including a tinted windshield, which has all been removed revealing a perfectly flawless and crack free interior. Almost every single piece of every part of the interior is like new, including the factory Toyota floormats and the center armrest. The original cargo cover is intact and works perfectly. Even the original stereo/cassette deck sounds good. Non smoker car. It could use new sunvisors and that's it. Mechanical It runs like brand new, drives like brand new, stops great. No leaks, no issues of any kind. Every single thing on this car works perfectly except the drivers side power mirror. Every light, buzzer, and other accessory works perfectly including the power antenna. It also has a brand new Ac compressor and a brand new set of fuel injectors.
Overall This is an amazing car that was very near to getting crushed. It's cool because it's not a Supra and it's not a GT-S convertible, in my opinion it's harder to find a car like this one and this one is the perfect blend of luxury, options, style and rock solid reliability. This particular car has definitely been well cared for throughout a majority of it's life. Why it was in the junkyard or a police auction, who knows. I believe it was a seizure for drugs or DUI. There are no signs of flood or accident damage and I have a clear Florida title for it. Of all of the Toyotas and cars in general I've messed with in my life, this one is by far the neatest and has the coolest story with it. If you have any questions, please call me at 941-720-0300, my name is Jason. |

Zombie cars: A dozen discontinued vehicles people still buy new
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. Â 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. Â 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. Â 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.
New BBC Top Gear season is off to a great start
Mon, Mar 6 2017The past few years have been very demanding for Top Gear fans. The Jeremy Clarkson Top Gear got too big for itself, and the core quality of the series degraded as stunts and jokes gradually became more and more stale. Things came to a head with the Fracasgate, with Clarkson punching a producer in a very nice hotel in Yorkshire with a very nice brass plaque commemorating "The End of Clarkson's BBC Career". Fast forward to a year ago, when the BBC produced a new series of Top Gear, with famed breakfast show person and shouting enthusiast Chris Evans hosting. Laden with personnel and curiously lacking any direction, the first new season collapsed onto itself with Evans eventually quitting the entire shindig. After that, viewers received a new, Amazon-produced Clarkson-Hammond-May series called The Grand Tour, which was often brilliant and just as often hampered by writing as hackneyed as the last Clarkson years of Top Gear. Now the slate is clean. Evans is gone. The first Grand Tour season has aired. The BBC has had a good long time to re-evaluate its strategy. And the first episode of this season's Top Gear has aired in the UK - and will air March 12 on BBC America. Your first extended look at all new #TopGear, coming 5 March. See you there pic.twitter.com/lYoYOtrWxR — Top Gear (@BBC_TopGear) February 23, 2017 What an improvement! It seems like the producers have taken an ax to everything not strictly necessary for making a great car show, and they've left what is absolutely crucial. There are the three car guys, Matt LeBlanc, Chris Harris and Rory Reid. There is a new studio. There is a new track car. There is a celebrity, but it's not painful to watch. There are easy jokes, there are car jokes, there are Ronin jokes. Ronin jokes! It's as if Harris, by dissecting continuity errors in the 1998 film's BMW chase, is reaching out to us fans, saying he's one of us, and he did notice the wrong wheels when the black BMW falls from the bridge. (Other mistakes are wrong-colored tach needles, for instance.) The first car film is a quality Ferrari FXX K piece, with Harris enjoying one of the 40 built track-day specials on the bankings of Daytona. It's remarkable it was Harris who was allowed to drive the exclusive Ferrari, as the first "outsider" (in his words) to drive one; years ago Harris was one of the most vocal critics of Ferrari's practices, resulting in him getting banned from driving press Ferraris. But then again, this is a customer car.
A pair of Mitsubishis, the Mazda CX-30 and electric incentives | Autoblog Podcast #673
Fri, Apr 9 2021This week's Autoblog Podcast features Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore and Consumer Editor Jeremy Korzeniewski as they debate the merits of the redesigned Subaru BRZ and Toyota 86 coupes and whether or not they are distinctive and powerful enough to attract buyers. The duo spends some time discussing ongoing EV and infrastructure legislation before turning their attention to a trio of crossovers. Greg muses about the 2021 Mazda CX-30 before Jeremy talks about the refreshed 2022 Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross and completely redesigned Outlander. We get nostalgic as we remember the dearly departed Pontiac GTO before wrapping the podcast up by making one more suggestion to a longtime listener who is shopping for a vehicle to replace her aging Honda Pilot.
