Crimson Red Mr2 Turbo. Super Clean California Car. on 2040-cars
Royal Oak, Michigan, United States
|
Sadly the time has come to sell my beautiful 91 MR2 Turbo. She only has 89k original miles and was purchased in California. She has always been garaged and has been very well cared for. I'm hoping she will go to a good home and to someone who truly loves these rare cars.
I bought her last winter as a summer project but my priorities have changed and I am being forced to make a decision between selling my Z06 or MR2. The things you do for your future wife. haha. As you can see from the pics she has crimson red paint and black interior. She also has t-tops that do not leak. I have multiple cars so my toys are never ever driven in the rain. The exterior is in fantastic condition with a few small scratches here and there (I can walk you through any imperfections over the phone). The only negative is a paintchip/crack on the rear engine bonnet. This part can be repaired or replaced with minimal cost as it is just the bonnet. The interior is in great shape as well. A few imperfections here and there but nothing out of the ordinary for a 91. I also have almost new original floor mats which will be included in the sale. I recently replaced the alternator and belt with new Denso parts less than 10 miles ago. She recently also had an oil change as well. Battery has been tested and is in perfect working order. She also has electric power steering. Modifications include: Carbon Fiber front hood w/hood pins. 18" black wheels w/polished lip. HKS Boost gauge installed in stock boost location in the cluster. Racing seats offer great support over stock. Pioneer CD/MP3 player. HKS VPC. HKS Turbo Timer. HKS bov. UICP. Upgraded Turbo (Ill check the brand). K&N filter. Exhaust and Downpipe. Plugs/wires. AN braided SS fuel line. 550cc injectors. Supra fuel pump. I will add to the list if I forgot anything. I would recommend the owner replace the tires. I would rather the new owner have their choice of tires as oppose to me picking a new set. There are a few things I am working on before the sale. She currently has a low idle which is adjustable using the HKS VPC. She also has a vacuum leak causing boost to build slow. I am hoping to correct these issues before the sale if possible. However if the new owner wants her as is I will gladly negotiate the price accordingly. She also could use a shift boot (I can procure a stock one if the new owner likes). Only other thing is that the AC belt has been removed. This has never been an issue for me but I must be upfront in my ad. Other than above she is a fantastic car that needs very little to be perfect. She will also be well cleaned and detailed before sale as expected. Clean and clear Michigan title and will be sold with 2 keys and any extra parts I have. I am willing to negotiate with serious buyers. Please do not waste my time and I promise not to waste yours. I am open to reasonable offers. If you have any questions please contact me on my cell. Please feel free to call anytime. Thanks for your interest. Nick 248-895-2625 |

GT Academy returns, and why Gran Turismo 6 demands a pedal/wheel setup
Fri, 18 Apr 2014The path to become a racing driver is a difficult one. It requires starting early, with karts, and then building up through the years and if you're really, really good (and really, really lucky), a team will notice you and sign you up. Or, you know, you could just become really good at Gran Turismo, and beat out other like-minded fanatics for a seat in the GT Academy.
The racing school, which culls its students from the ranks of Gran Turismo players has already pumped out successful racers, most notably, Lucas Ordoñez, who has a second and third-place finish under his belt at the 24 Hours of Le Mans. With the 2014 GT Academy kicking off April 21 and running through June 16, you could have a chance to be the next Ordoñez.
That won't be easy, though. We recently had a playthrough on GT6 the proper way - with a racing seat, pedals and a steering wheel, complete with column-mounted paddles. (Our setup looked just like the one you see above, though that image is from E3.) In other words, it was as close to driving an actual car as most console games can get.
2014 Toyota Corolla gets marginal IIHS small overlap crash test score [w/video]
Fri, 04 Oct 2013Toyota may have performed some major surgery on the 2014 Corolla, but that hasn't helped the Japanese automaker overcome tough new crash test procedures. The Corolla, Toyota's bread-and-butter compact sedan, managed only a Marginal score on the new small overlap crash test, which was just added last year.
Despite the low score, the Corolla performed well in the moderate overlap front, side, rollover and rear testing, which was enough to score it a 2013 Top Safety Pick. In testing in August, six of the Corolla's competitors earned the Top Safety Pick + award, for good or acceptable scores across the board.
According to the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, the Corolla's "Marginal" score was down to an "intruding structure," that could cause injuries to the lower left leg. There was also concern that in a collision, the driver's head would move after hitting the air bag, and collide with the A-pillar or dash.
Toyota GT86 engineer Tada recounts how sports car came to be
Wed, 13 Feb 2013Because the Toyota GT86, Scion FR-S and Subaru BRZ coupes are now a reality, it's almost hard to imagine the struggle that had to happen within the large, conservative corporate structures at both automakers for the joint project to even get off of the ground.
Speaking to those struggles on Toyota UK's Toyota Blog, GT86 Chief Engineer Tetsuya Tada enlightens us with a recap of the sports car's earliest origins. For Tada, the first stages of the project must have seemed almost as dreamlike as the final product is to drive.
Said the Chief, "I had been working in the minivan department engineering new product, but a month after the meeting I was summoned. 'Forget about minivans,' they said, 'you are now working on the sports-car project.'"
