1980 Toyota Celica Supra Hatchback 2-door 2.6l Mk1 All Original Low Miles! on 2040-cars
This is the very rare 1980 Toyota Celica Supra MK1. This car is a major head turner! There are not very many left in this good of shape, and next to non with this low of miles (96,***) It is all original (except for the CD player of course). Original paint job is still very nice! Everything works including heat and AC. Very fun car to drive, V6 with rwd and over drive- this car wants to go! The Supra Mk1 was way ahead of its time, it is fuel injected and even has power windows.
Interior is in pretty good shape, the driver and passenger seats have tears and should be reupholstered at some point. I currently have seat covers on them. Body is in amazing shape for a 34 year old car! The only spot of rust I could find was about the size of a quarter (see pictures of the hood) Car runs and drives good. I always warm it up for at least 10 minutes before driving it, I recommend that you do the same for optimal performance (as you should with any car this old!) The brakes were replaced pretty recently. I have owned this car for about 3 years, driven it very modularly (only summers, and weekends) and always kept it in a heated Garage. I've always changed the oil every couple of months. This car has been very well taken care of, and will take good care of you weather you keep it all original or modify it. It is a very nice car, especially for the age, but keep in mind that it is 34 years old, and by no means perfect, so please ask any and all questions before bidding or making an offer. I described it to the best of my ability, but I definitely encourage getting an independent car inspection before purchasing. all sales are final. |

Toyota recalls 112,500 models for steering, transmission issues
Thu, Mar 12 2015Toyota has announced a voluntary recall of a variety of vehicles built between model years 2012 and 2015. Roughly 110,000 of the 112,500 vehicles being recalled consist of the gas and hybrid variants of the 2015 Camry and Highlander, as well as the 2014 and 2015 RAV4. The problem, this time around, is down to a circuit board that may have been damaged during manufacturing of the electric power steering system. According to Toyota, the bad circuit board can lead to a loss of power steering. Owners would still have manual steering control, although they'll have a warning lamp glaring at them from the instrument cluster the entire time. As for the remaining 2,500 vehicles, they're limited to the RAV4 EV, built between 2012 and 2014. A software issue in the electric vehicle traction motor assembly could cause the EV to shift into neutral. As with the issue affecting the Camry, Highlander and gas-powered RAV4, vehicles with this problem will produce a warning lamp in the instrument cluster, as well as a "Check EV" message. Toyota will be notifying owners of the affected vehicles via snail mail, and asking them to report in for free repairs at their local dealership. Check out the whole press release on the issue, available below. TORRANCE, Calif., March 11, 2015 – Toyota Motor Sales, U.S.A., Inc., today announced it will conduct safety recalls of approximately 2,500 Model Year 2012 – 2014 RAV4 EV vehicles; and approximately 110,000 Model Year 2015 Camry, Camry Hybrid, Highlander, Highlander Hybrid, and 2014-2015 Model Year RAV4 vehicles. In the involved RAV4 EV, components in the Electric Vehicle Traction Motor Assembly, which is part of the propulsion system, may cause the vehicle to shift to "neutral" due to a software issue. This condition will also trigger a "Check EV System" warning message on the instrument panel and turn on a malfunction indicator lamp. If the vehicle shifts to "neutral", this will result in a complete loss of drive power, which can increase the risk of a crash. Owners of the involved vehicles will receive a notification by first class mail. Toyota dealers will repair the electric vehicle traction motor assembly. In the involved Camry, Camry Hybrid, Highlander, Highlander Hybrid and RAV 4 vehicles, a circuit board for the electric power steering (EPS) may have been damaged during its manufacturing process. This can result in the loss of power steering assist; an instrument panel warning lamp will also come on.
Toyota recalling 1.9M Prius models globally for software update
Wed, 12 Feb 2014Toyota has announced a set of voluntary recalls covering 960,000 Prius, RAV4, Tacoma and Lexus RX350 models in the United States to address two separate issues. Worldwide, Toyota will have to recall a total of 1.9 million Prius cars.
The Prius recall affects about 700,000 2010-2014 models in the US, due to a fault in the motor/generator control ECU and hybrid control ECU software. It says that the current software could result in high temperatures on certain transistors and possibly damage them. When it fails, the error forces the car into failsafe mode. Toyota says that in rare circumstances, it could even shut the hybrid system down while the car is being driven.
Toyota spokeswoman Shino Yamada told Automotive News that the software update should take about 40 minutes, and dealers would start to be notified about affected vehicles today. She also told them that the first reported glitch occurred in May 2011 in the US when the system overheated and the car entered failsafe mode. The affected cars were built between March 2009 and Feb. 5, 2014, according to Automotive News. Toyota says that it has received no reports of accidents or injuries caused by either fault.
