2003 Toyota Corolla S Sedan 4-door 1.8l on 2040-cars
Aurora, Illinois, United States
On
behalf of my friend I am auctioning his 2003 Toyota Corolla S which runs but
cannot be driven due to a broken left front spring. The car has 166,068 miles. He
is the 2nd owner. It is silver with black cloth interior. Some of
the equipment on this Corolla includes: automatic transmission; power
locks/windows/mirrors; keyless entry; cruise control; and AM/FM CD player. The
car has a clean and clear Illinois title. Please read below for a detailed
description of this Corolla.
MECHANICAL The car
starts right away and runs strong with smooth shifts. There are no leaks or unusual
noises but the engine compartment is dirty. My friend has kept up with all
regular maintenance and just put new tires on in November, 2013. The suspension,
however, needs work. The left front spring broke and it appears it will also need
front struts and inner/outer tie rods. There is also a loud popping noise when
turning the steering wheel. No formal inspections have been done so this is
just an assumption of what is needed with the suspension.
EXTERIOR As
would be expected from an 11 year old car the exterior is showing signs of age.
There are dings, scratches, faded paint, and rust throughout. There is no major
body damage. As far as my friend knows the only accident the car was involved
in was a low speed parking lot fender bender that required paint work to the
left front fender.
INTERIOR The
interior just needs a good cleaning as we are coming out of a long winter here
in the Chicago area. There are no signs of unusual wear to the interior of the
car or unusual odors. Also it’s important to note that my friend is not a
smoker and has no pets.
TERMS
OF SALE
The car
is under a reserve auction and the final reserve amount will not be disclosed.
The car is listed for sale locally so I reserve the right to end the auction early.
The car can be inspected in Aurora, IL on week nights with advance notice but
because of the broken left front spring I cannot let you take the car on a test
drive for liability reasons. You are not bidding on a cream puff – this is an
11 year old car that has been driven daily and needs suspension work so please
keep that in mind when bidding. That
being said this car is being sold as is and where is. There are no guarantees,
warranties, or refunds. If you buy this car you must pay a $1000 deposit within
48 hours and the full balance within a week. You must also arrange transportation
– again the car is not safe to drive. If you are paying by cashier’s check the
vehicle will not be released until funds are confirmed. Please only bid if you
are serious about buying this car. I will answer any questions you have so
please feel free to ask them before bidding! |

Toyota C-HR Concept is a high-riding hybrid hatch [w/video]
Thu, 02 Oct 2014Despite having the tendency to offer decidedly bland production cars, Toyota occasionally surprises us with interesting concept cars. Such is the case with the C-HR concept making its debut at the Paris Motor Show this week. It's a concept showing forward-thinking design that hints at "a type of crossover vehicle Toyota would like to bring to market," according to the automaker's release, and it rides on an all-new platform and uses a hybrid powertrain.
About that powertrain: Toyota isn't revealing anything, just saying that it will - brace yourselves - "deliver significantly improved fuel efficiency" (over what, exactly?) The car also uses a brand-new architecture, though it hasn't really revealed any major details about that aspect, either.
It's a high-riding, muscular thing, with a rakish hatchback shape. Should it reach production, Toyota says it would take the shape of a C-segment crossover. It'd be cool to see something like this hit the road someday, but for now, we won't hold our breath.
Toyota may put Mirai hydrogen fuel cell powertrain into a Lexus
Wed, Dec 24 2014Toyota is hoping to define the world of hydrogen fuel cell vehicles with its uniquely styled Mirai sedan in a fashion similar to the way the Prius pops into people's minds when they think of a hybrid. The Japanese automaker believes it can sell about 700 FCEVs worldwide in the first year alone and build rapidly from there to an estimated 3,000 sales in the US by 2017. Of course, not everyone is completely enamored with the Mirai's design. Toyota is rumored to have an alternative in the works to quell some of those naysayers, possibly taking flagship form with a new Lexus LS powered by fuel-cell tech. The LS FCEV could be unveiled by 2017 to sit at the very top of brand's lineup. According to an inside source speaking to the Australian website Motoring, the front end would feature larger air intakes to cool the electrical components. The fuel cell would reportedly be positioned under the front seat, and the hydrogen tanks would be located under and behind the rear seat. Somehow, Motoring claims that all of this might be lighter than the current LS600hL hybrid, to the tune about 440 pounds. The model is also claimed to offer a range of about 239 miles, just a bit shy of the Mirai's roughly 300 miles. Assuming this vehicle actually exists, the cost for buyers of this flagship would almost certainly ring up at more than the LS600hL's $120,440 base price. Autoblog has reached out to Toyota for any further info about this rumor, one way or the other. If we hear back, we'll update this story with the details.

Toyota updates 86 in Japan with this weird special edition
Wed, Feb 11 2015In their constant drive for perfection, Japanese automakers Toyota and Subaru have both announced some minor updates for their jointly produced sports car specifically for their domestic market. Both the Toyota 86 (known in these parts as the Scion FR-S) and the Subaru BRZ are getting a revised version of the electric power steering system they were designed with in the first place as well as a reworked suspension. The more intriguing news, though, is the strange restyling Toyota is offering on the 86 Style Cb edition. Ditching the aggressively angular front end of the existing model, this special edition gets rounded headlamps and an extended nose to give it a much less severe face. The Toyota 86 Style Cb is also being offered with an optional two-tone paint scheme and gets unique LED turning indicator strips, a special badge on the bulbous snout and revised interior trim. We'll chalk it up to a matter of personal taste, but as far as JDM specials go, this special edition isn't one over which we'll be terribly disappointed if it never makes it to US showrooms. We'll be sure to keep you posted if and when any of the mechanical updates make the trip across the Pacific, though. Related Video:
