1997 - Toyota Land Cruiser on 2040-cars
San Clemente, California, United States
1997 Land Cruiser Wagon in white with a tan leather interior. Nicknamed "Watson". The Kelly Blue Book on this car appears to be almost 9,000. It has very low mileage at 113,321 miles!!! It drives beautifully and looks fantastic! Every time I take it to be serviced or detailed auto workers ask if I want to sell it. It has never been in any kind of accident of any sort. We have taken good care of it, getting it serviced regularly at Torrance Toyota and saved all service records. We saved the original window sticker and have the original bill of sale. We have owned it for the past 16 years and bought it from a dealer in Northridge, California when there was only about 14,000 miles on it. When we took it for its last service, Torrance Toyota recommended getting 2,000 worth of work done which I listed above. As much as we love this car-- and we do-- we decided to sell it instead. The main repair needed is the Axle Seal. The dealership service center said both outer axle pivot seals are leaking diff oil and they recommended front axle overhaul. We didn't get a second opinion on this. Here is the information from the window sticker, which I saved: Mechanical and performance: 4.5 DOHC Engine w/24 Valves 4-speed ECT Automatic overdrive transmission Full time four wheel drive Viscous Coupling Center Differential Front and RR Coil Spring Suspension Front and Rear Stabilizer Bars Power Assisted Recirculating Ball Steering 2nd Gear Start Switch 4-Wheel Ventilated Disc Brakes P275/70R16 Radial Tires (5) Towing PKG w/Trans Oil Cooler Safety: Driver/Passenger Airbag (SRS) 4-Wheel Anti-Lock Brake System Side-Door Impact Beams Center High-Mount Stoplight Exterior: Color-Keyed Dual Outside Mirrors and Door Handles Tinted Glass Rear Window Defogger Front and rear Mudguards Fender Flares 16x8JJ Silver Styled Wheels Comfort and Convenience: Leather Seats Full pile-cut carpeting CFS-Free Air conditioning premium ETR Cassette w/9 Speakers and power antenna Height adjustable front shoulder belt anchors FR and RR intermittent Wipers Front and Rear Heaters, Cruise Control with Digital Clock Tilt Steering Power Windows/Doors Locks/Mirrors Auto-Off Headlamps The window sticker said it gets 13 miles to the gallon in the city and 15 on the highway. We paid 42,972.25 for this car on August 5, 1998 and have that contract. The odometer reading at the dealership was 14,177 and they said it was new.

VW targeting 10M sales in 2014
Sun, 16 Mar 2014Volkswagen Group believes it can sell over 10 million vehicles in 2014, with hopes of overtaking Toyota as the world's largest automaker in the process. If VW can do it, it would meet that goal four years earlier than planned. Of course, Toyota isn't sitting still - it also hopes to top the 10 million-car threshold this year and has the advantage of already holding the top spot.
"With rising volume and new models, we will increasingly see positive earnings effects as well," said VW Group CEO Martin Winterkorn during its annual press conference, according to Automotive News. The company is spending huge amounts of money to propel it to the top, investing 84.2 billion euros ($117 billion) through 2018, and according to AN it plans to introduce over 100 new models worldwide among all of its brands by the end of next year.
The German automaker may get an extra boost as the European car industry shows signs of emerging from its yearlong stagnation and China continues to grow. In January, VW Group was up 8.5 percent in Europe and 15.5 percent in China, according to its own figures. However, the US has been slowing with Volkswagen brand sales down 19.04 percent in January and down 13.81 percent in February.
Toyota nudges US sales projections up to 2.25M
Tue, 20 Aug 2013Toyota has raised its expectations for 2013's US sales for the third time since the end of 2012. The new target rests at 2.25 million units, when sales of Toyota, Lexus and Scion are taken as one. Subtracting Lexus, Toyota is still expecting to move over two million vehicles in the US by the end of 2013.
According to a report from Automotive News, the sales expectations came from Bob Carter, senior VP of automotive operations for Toyota USA, during a dealers during a meeting in Atlanta. The heightened expectations go along with Toyota's predictions for the US market as a whole, which it expects to grow to 15.5 million units by the end of 2013.
Besides an overall, national uptick in new vehicle sales, Toyota is also expecting a big push as it puts the next-generation Corolla to market during the second half of this year, along with the Tundra pickup truck. Meanwhile, dealers were shown images of a refreshed Camry, set to arrive in 2015, and reported that it's "more than a nip and a tuck," according to the AN report.
Toyota to start production of hydrogen vehicles in December
Sun, 08 Jun 2014Toyota's hydrogen fuel cell vehicle will be in showrooms sooner than planned, the Japan Times reporting that production will commence in mid-December with the sedan following "by the end of this year." No reason was given for the new timeline; Toyota has been saying all along that we'd see it in 2015.
The company is said to be "considering" production volume of "dozens of... vehicles per month" at a "likely" price of eight million yen, which is $78,030 US. That is well in line with the numbers thrown around last year, when the target was somewhere between $50,000 and $100,000. Then late last year, during our first drive of the FCHV mule, we wrote that "the official quote... [is] that a price of 'less than 10 million yen is ideal.'"
That alleged $78K is a sizable sum to be one of the early adopters on the hydrogen fuel cell wagon train, but with things moving around so much - and with Toyota publicly citing hydrogen fuel cells as the future - there's plenty of reason to be cautious about that number.
