1991 Toyota Mr2 Along With Another 1991 Toyota Mr2 Parts Car on 2040-cars
Mechanicsville, Maryland, United States

We are selling 2 - 1991 Toyota MR2s together. One is Red and the other is Aquamarine Pearl. They are both basically the same car, just different exterior colors.
The Aquamarine Pearl MR2 has not run in about 11 years. My wife purchased this one in June of 1991 as a dealer demo with 1200 miles and it needs a new electrical luggage wiring harness and a lot of TLC to get this car running again. The engine was replaced March 1999. My wife has always wanted to get this one back on the road again, but 3 children later...we are passing it on for someone else to love, or at least utilize the hard to find parts. The Red MR2, I bought for my wife's 40th birthday - June 2010. The 1st owner was an elderly couple who had purchased the car new for their "extra" vehicle. About 4 1/2 years ago, someone "turned into them" in a parking lot. The passenger door needed to be replaced and the insurance company told them that they were totaling the vehicle, because the brand new door was too expensive to replace. The owner didn't know that they had other options, because once we found out it was a salvage title, my wife called the original owners. They were actually devastated that they could have kept the car and replaced the door with a used one. We purchased the car from the dealer who bought and replaced the door. I have been driving this car back and forth to work over the past couple of years. It is in great running condition and gets excellent gas mileage. For now (and probably another 10 years or so) this season of our lives doesn't include these cars, so hopefully there is someone out there who can love them as much as we do:) |

Toyota GT86 GT4 racer is ready for UK competition
Tue, 05 Feb 2013It's about time we saw someone cook up a legitimate race version of the delectable Toyota GT86, and now it looks as if GPRM has done just that. The Buckingham-based race engineering team has built the creation you see here, complete with a turbocharged 2.0-liter, direct-injection four-cylinder boxer cooked up by Nicholson McLaren Engines. The team says the new mill delivers between 360 and 400 horsepower to the rear wheels depending on final testing, which is a sight bit more than the 197 horses the naturally aspirated stock mill offers.
The car will compete in GT4 events, including the Avon Tyres British GT Championship. Technically, the GPRM effort isn't factory backed, but the team says the effort "has the blessing of Toyota Great Britain." How could it not? You can check out the brief press release below below, and be sure to take a closer look at the machine in our gallery.
1967 Toyota 2000GT most expensive Asian car ever sold at $1.2M
Fri, 10 May 2013Toyota's agelessly beautiful 2000GT has been sold by RM Auctions for $1.16 million, making it the new record holder for the most expensive Asian car ever sold. As always, rarity played a big factory in driving up the price; just 351 2000GT models were built, and only 62 left-hand-drive cars (like this one). The classic Toyota, standout member of Texas car-collector Don Davies' paddock, was originally a US-delivery car that spent time in a collection back in a Japan before returning to Texas just a short time ago. The car last sold in March of 2011, for just $650,000.
Enthusiasts will recognize the 2000GT as perhaps the most heralded Japanese classic of all time. The Toyota was a contemporary of the Jaguar E-Type - though one that obviously sold in a fraction of the English car's numbers - that was well reviewed by the motoring press of the day. Sometimes referred to as Japan's first supercar, the 2000GT boasted a 150-horsepower, dual overhead cam, 2.0-liter straight-six engine; a five-speed manual transmission; and a reported top speed of over 135 miles per hour.
RM described this record-setting example as, "the finest and most authentic 2000GT to come to market in recent years," equating it with blue chip classic exotics like the Ferrari Daytona and Lamborghini Miura.
Jim Lentz exposes more details behind Toyota's move to Texas
Fri, 02 May 2014Toyota's North American CEO Jim Lentz has already given us a rough idea of what prompted the company's surprise move to the Dallas suburb of Plano, TX from its longstanding headquarters in Torrance, CA. A new story from The Los Angeles Times, though, delivers even more detail from Lentz on the reasoning for the move, what other cities were considered and why the company's current host city wasn't even in the running.
Of course, one of the more popular reasons being bandied about includes the $40 million Texas was set to give the company for the move, as well as the state's generous tax rates. According to Lentz, though, the reason Toyota chose Plano over a group of finalists made up of Atlanta, Charlotte and Denver, was far simpler than that - it was about consolidating its marketing, sales, engineering and production teams in a region that's closer to the company's seat of manufacturing in the south.
"It doesn't make sense to have oversight of manufacturing 2,000 miles away from where the cars were made," Lentz told The Times. "Geography is the reason not to have our headquarters in California."
