1993 Toyota MR2 Turbo with a very LOW RESERVE PRICE. I purchased this car on eBay in 2006 and spent a lot of money in it right off the bat. New timing belt, AC compressor, plugs, Wires, Breaks with drilled and slotted rotors, Rims and Tires, Eibach Pro-Kit springs, Custom Speaker Box and Amp, Alpine Radio w/Ipod connection and more. I removed the rear spoiler and welded all the holes on the trunk. The plan was to repaint the whole car, but until then I did a carbon fiber paint job on it instead of just primer. Also the doors are wrapped in 3M Carbon Fiber vinyl just because I liked the way it looks, but that can be removed in about 5 minutes if it's not for you. The Ferrari emblems make a nice statement and the prancing horse on the back makes it go faster (LOL). My time and money kinda got diverted when we had our son a year later. It is possible to be Happy and Sad @ the same time. I have 3 other cars and a company vehicle that I drive every day and may get the MR2 out once every 2 or 3 weeks to pick up the kid from school if I'm off early. It truly isn't the best family car, but I paid cash for it and there is only insurance to pay (and 93 octane Gas to keep it happy). It truly is a blast to drive, I have just outgrown it and need to finish other projects. I took it to the Toyota dealership and had them check the car out and Flush all the systems and add all new fluids. They gave it a clean bill of health and I have driven the car a whopping 300 miles in 10 months, oh joy for me. All the good considered, it has its flaws. Original Paint, No Dents, There are some scratches and scuffs that would be expected with a car 20 years old, No cracks in any glass, The drivers Seat cover is well worn and could be replaced, T-Top seals are still good but water will drip in if it is raining hard, There are 2 holes in the A pillar from a gauge cluster that used to be there (it will come with the car), Drivers side lock works but will not turn off the alarm when the door is opened. I have been told it is a simple fix, but I have been just unlocking it from the passengers side and not bothering with it, NO Cat. on car; it has a 3" Blitz down pipe from the turbo and 3" pipe to the carbon fiber exhaust with a 4.5" out. If you have any questions about the car feel free to ask them. There will be no joy rides and please do not bid if you don't want to pay for the car. You are more than welcome to come and check it out and if you are ready to buy we can test drive it, but I don't have time to waste while someone gets to enjoy driving a car that I don't have time to drive myself. The winning bidder is responsible for transportation of the car to where ever they are. There are a lot of car transporters that can get it anywhere in the world for a reasonable price, but that is up to the buyer. Thanks and GOOD LUCK!

Toyota plans biggest stock buyback in over a decade
Tue, 01 Apr 2014At the end of December, 2013 Toyota had a cash stockpile of 1.8 trillion yen ($17.5B US). As of March 31, at the end of its current financial year, company coffers are expected to swallow another 1.9 trillion yen ($18.4B US) in net profit - said to be a record sum for the Japanese automaker. In a gesture signaling a turnaround from the horrors of the global recession, Bloomberg reports that Toyota will buy back 60 million shares of its stock, as much as 1.89 percent of the company, for something like 360 billion yen ($3.5B US). It's the first buyback since 2009 and the largest buyback since 2003, when it spent roughly 390 billion yen ($3.8B US) repurchasing shares.
Company president Akio Toyoda founded the Toyota Mobility Foundation (TMF), a non-profit that will support international groups working on transportation issues in emerging markets. Half of the stock that Toyota buys, 30 million shares, will be sold to the foundation via the Japanese Trustee Services Bank for one yen per share, the dividend providing the foundation's initial funding. The other 30 million shares will be canceled, a company spokesman telling Reuters that the company wants to reward shareholders.
Industry analysts have been asking Toyota to either return money to shareholders or invest in new factories, but Toyota has ruled out the latter. After getting burned with excess capacity when the financial crisis came, the company is focused on extracting efficiencies from the plants it already has. Toyota has said it plans to complete the buyback by June of this year.
Toyota raises Japanese base wages for first time since 2008
Fri, 14 Mar 2014Toyota is on track for record profits, and in return, its Japanese workers are receiving their first increase in base wages since 2008, plus higher pay based on seniority and a larger bonus for 2014. The Japanese automaker predicts the average laborer will net a 2.9 percent income gain.
The average Toyota employee will earn 2,700 yen ($26.28) more each month, a 0.8 percent increase from last year. Workers will also receive about 7,300 yen ($71.09) more monthly based on seniority and promotions. Finally, the company's union pushed through a median bonus of 2.44 million yen ($23,768) for 2014, the highest in 6 years.
The pay boost comes as Toyota forecasts a record 1.9-trillion yen ($18.5 billion) profit for the fiscal year ending on March 31, according to Bloomberg. It has been helped by the Japanese government's efforts to weaken the yen on international markets and expand inflation. Prime Minister Shinzo Abe has been asking businesses to increase compensation to end years of deflation and offset upcoming higher sales taxes. Honda and Nissan have also raised their wages there in recent months.
2014 Toyota FJ Cruiser Ultimate Edition
Thu, 10 Jul 2014Introduced at the end of 2006, this is the last year for the Toyota FJ Cruiser, the reincarnated FJ40-series Land Cruiser that will shortly journey to Takama-ga-hara, the Plain of High Heaven. In its first model year, we drove it to SEMA and found it, shall we say, coarse. It bobbled on the freeway and droned in the cabin, its boxy interior providing four bounce-boards for unpleasant frequencies. Tall mirrors helped one work around the eclipse of vision aft of the B-pillars, but navigating traffic required forethought and technique. Its turning circle was measured in kilometers. For the first two years of its life, it needed premium gas. It may have been fun to look at, but we couldn't wait to get out of it.
That's not the case anymore, and now the FJ Cruiser is poised to join a long list of vehicles that got better and better, then got axed.
