  We purchased this Scion XA new in May of 2005.  It has never had a mechanical issue of any kind.  The car averaged 40 MPG on the original tires, but when I replaced them I chose a lower mileage tire for better traction in the wet.  Now the car averages 37 miles per gallon, if driven with restraint. The engine consumes no oil, leaks nothing, and needs nothing.  The oil was changed recently and the oil and filter have been changed every 5,000 miles for the life of the car.
  The car has AM FM CD radio, power windows and locks, cruise control (dealer added), and a four speed automatic transmission.  The tires on the car are in excellent condition, with only 6,000 miles on them.  All keys and manuals go with the car.
  The body shows it’s age a bit.  There is minor hail damage on the top and hood, just a few small dents,  which no one sees unless the car is clean and I tell them to look.  There is a tiny dent in the driver’s door from a lawn mower thrown rock.  The right rear door has a small dent where a deer ran into it.  (The deer kept on going.)  One hubcap has some curb rash.
  There is a Curt class one trailer hitch on the car which has been used to pull a small all-aluminum trailer with light loads for short distances.  (The Aluma brand ATV trailer is available only if bought with the car, for an additional $400.)  The hitch would be perfect for carrying bicycles.  The trailer also has helped us to avoid having a truck for many years.  There is currently no wiring for the trailer lights, as they are not required in my state if the lights on the tow vehicle are visible.  The car is only for sale because we have purchased a small truck.  Something's GOT to go!  The title is here, in my name, ready to go.  There are no issues with this car.  It has never been driven by anyone under the age of 60.
  If the car is purchased with a cashiers check, it must be picked up during banking hours to allow verification of the check.  (My signature needs to be notarized on the title also.)  No personal checks, please.
  Call me at 828 369-9819 or email at tom28734@gmail.com if you have further questions.  You can also contact me through eBay. Thanks for looking!

Toyota 86 most likely to get more power through more displacement? [w/poll]

Wed, 21 Aug 2013

The Sydney Morning Herald has spoken to Tetsuya Tada, chief engineer of the Toyota 86 (our version of it, the Scion FR-S, is pictured above), and they've been promised that more power is on the way. We've heard a lot of speculation about a more powerful Toyobaru since before the standard model was even launched. The only question now is how the power will be delivered, and among the engine concepts we've already heard about - turbo, supercharger, twin-charged, hybrid - is a new one: more displacement.
Tada said that an engine with more displacement than the current coupe's 2.0 liters is being tested alongside a turbocharged and a hybrid-assisted motor. The SMH cites "inside sources" as saying the displacement option is the one likely to get the go-ahead, and suggests increased bore and stroke will see the engine grow to 2.5 liters, horsepower to about 250 - a 50-hp increase over the present car.
While that's apparently the betting man's solution for the long-awaited increase in gumption, what happens with the next generation could be more wide open than we suspected. According to the report, Tada "hinted that [a successor] could be a radically different car, potentially dropping the boxer engine altogether." He said once they've sorted out the concept for the second generation car, then they'll sort out an engine. That's where a turbo option could come to market, perhaps the turbocharged four-cylinder Toyota is developing for the Lexus NX crossover or a hybrid system that uses a capacitor.

Top horsepower-per-dollar cars in 2017

Tue, Feb 17 2015

Bang for the buck. That quasi-scientific statistic is bandied about by motor heads everywhere from classrooms to barrooms, though the truth of the matter is that it's exceedingly complex to measure. A fair performance-per-dollar index would include something like cross-referencing MSRP (Manufacturers Suggested Retail Price) with point-to-point times on a track or driving route, which is obviously hard to do comprehensively. But, for the sheer joy of talking about cars and playing with a big spreadsheet, there's always the horsepower-per-dollar index, which is more straightforward, albeit hilariously flawed. There are vagaries even with this simple formula, of course: MSRP for vehicles can change at a moment's notice, to say nothing of the bottom-line shifting that happens with local deals or showroom negotiation. For this list we're running with the straight MSRP wherever possible, and as recently reported as we can get it. All the vehicles on this list are 2017 models, and all trims are reported where the lowest price and differing power levels intersect. Some choices were made for personal preference and some for sanity, avoiding things like all 48 trim levels of the Ford Transit, all with the same horsepower). If this list were a simple top ten, or even a top fifty, you'd be bored to tears with all the red, white and blue that is represented. Following perfectly with conventional wisdom, American cars really do lead the world where hp/$ is concerned. So, for the sake of variety (and the sheer joy of seeing a minivan 'win' one round of this thing) I've sorted out some top five and bottom five lists for broad power categories. Let's dive in. Less Than 100 Horsepower Okay, okay, this is hardly a category we'll grant you. But we've often tried to click off all the sub-100-hp cars on sale in the US, and making this list gave us an excuse. It also illustrates that none of these smallish vehicles bring cheap horsepower to the table - for that you'll need a motorcycle. The segment-leading Chevy Spark (above) asks just over $139 for each hp, and that Smart Fortwo Electric Drive has hp on sale for about the same price as its very distant family cousin, the Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG (insert your favorite Smart joke here... we know you want to).

Santa swaps his sleigh for a Ferrari-powered Toyota

Fri, Dec 23 2016

A Ferrari-powered Toyota 86 is sure to garner a bit of attention, as well it should. We've been paying attention throughout this build, so it should be no surprise then that Santa did as well. He's ditched his red sleigh for the Gumout GT4586 in this video. If you've been following along, you know that Ryan Tuerck and Gumout built this completely bonkers machine that's far more exciting than some previous Japanese/Italian mash-up automobiles. Donut Media has been doing their part to document and promote every stage of the process. This new video is filled with the gratuitous amounts of lights, noise, and tire smoke that Donut is known for. We don't know the conversion from horsepower to reindeerpower, but the GT4586 should provide plenty of oomph for Santa's Christmas trek.
