Hello and thank you viewing this auction. This is my first Mr2 so those of you in the know please feel free to educate me on the facts about this awesome Mr2. no warranty, no guaranty. you are buying this Mr2 "as is".
one issue; I just registered the title so it will be 4 weeks until I can overnight it to the winner of the auction. the title is clear no liens or anything like that.
this car has been a one owner car until I bought it a few days ago and he has 2 other vehicles that's how it has such low miles, it has been garaged its whole life, it has no modifications/completely original and is as the 1st owner bought it off the showroom floor. it has never been stunted or raced. never driven in the snow, it has spent its whole life in eastern Washington. the only rust I've been able to find is a small area on the battery hold down bracket.
the seat "covers" are nearly as old as the car so the seats upholstery is in excellent condition the rest of the interior is in pretty good shape also.
original stereo and speakers, still sounds really good.
original sunroof interior cover. I drove the car home in a downpour - not a drop from sunroof seal.
nearly new battery
nearly new tires. original small spare.
it does have a original rear window visor which has multiple paint specks or something "etched" into it.
no known major issues, it still feels tight when accelerating and turning. I started once releasing the clutch too quickly and too little throttle and the engine still didn't hesitate or knock.
as listed earlier this Mr2 does have normal wear and tear. rock chips in the paint, one noticeable rock chip in the windshield, a couple of parking lot dings like a door edge or shopping cart would inflict, the front air dam under the bumper has wear area across most of its bottom edge and has quite a few rock chip spots. I am trying to be very descriptive but please note these are all minor/normal wear and tear issues my intention is that you are able to able to make the most informed decision possible about this Mr2. a really good detailer could fine tune the chips and dings easily, I'm pretty sure this car has never been detailed, it hasn't really needed it. when I pull up to the Toyota owners club meeting the car gets plenty of adulation.
the "original" paint job overall is in pretty good shape, not noticeably faded "thanks to it garage life" but does have normal scratches from cleaning and the above mentioned minor chips and dings and scratches.
the parking brake holds well and feels "tight/fresh".
please feel free to ask questions and offer factoids.
as mentioned no warranty, no guaranty. sold as is, where is.
here's thought; if any of you "actual bidders" are serious about the miles, let me know, I'll stop driving it. it is such a head turner :)

Watch a Camry driver in full road rage
Mon, 29 Apr 2013There are vehicles that, fair or not, will forever be associated with jerky drivers. But as this very recent footage from an in-car camera shows, even the most mundane of sedans can be piloted by an ass.
In this video, the driver of one very beige Toyota Camry is driving like a person choked with rage. Though we don't see which (if any) actions by our camera car might have lead up to the tirade, we do see the Camry driver swerving from lane to lane, in multiple attempts to get in front of and brake check the couple in the recording.
According to the text associated with the YouTube video, the offending incident took place last week, on a section of I-880 near Fremont, CA. The uploader has gone so far as to include the date, time and license plate number of the Camry driver, in hopes, we guess, that some kind of legal action can be taken against him. Take a closer look for yourself in the video below.
Toyota Prius sales could come up short in 2013
Sat, 06 Jul 2013A Toyota executive has said that the automaker's hybrid Prius model may not reach its 2013 goal of selling 250,000 units in the US marketplace. Bill Fay, group vice president for Toyota's US sales, told Reuters, "The 240,000 to 250,000 range is kind of where we're settling our sights for the Prius family."
The first-generation Prius, a five-passenger model, was introduced to the States in 2001 (its arrival made it the second mass-produced hybrid, after the two-seat Honda Insight). The second-generation model arrived in 2004, followed by the current third-generation design that arrived for the 2010 model year. The automaker has subsequently added the Prius V, a hatchback wagon (shown above) and the Prius C, a subcompact hatchback. As of March, 2013, cumulative worldwide sales of the Prius had reached 3.67 million units.
Last year, Toyota sold 236,659 Prius models in the US. However, sales of the model have fallen 5.1 percent in the first six months of 2013. In response, the automaker has boosted its marketing for the model, and the promotions are expected to continue through at least July.
Scion xB death sentence uncertain, minor updates announced
Mon, 10 Dec 2012The last time we discussed the Scion xB and xD, in April of this year, it was to announce a report that both models were being killed. The vice president of the brand had said, "We don't have plans for a direct xB or xD replacement," but no date was given for the termination. Turns out rumors of their deaths have been greatly exaggerated: as part of a Toyota press release that summarized feature and pricing changes for 2013, the Scion xB was included.
The 2013 hatchback (above) gets a new front bumper and lower fascia with LED lighting, and the rear end gets a black diffuser. Stingray Metallic and Elusive Blue Metallic exterior hues will disappear, Absolutely Red and Nautical Blue Metallic will take their places. Inside will be light bronze metallic and chrome accents, as well as new seat fabric and the availability of the BeSpoke Premium Audio. It increases in price by $500, the manual costing $16,800, the automatic $17,750.
The xD (inset) has been left off the list and the Scion website it still hawking the 2012 car. But 2013 xD pricing and new features were announced earlier this year, the MSRP rising by $125 to $16,500. New equipment and options includes smoked headlight covers, more airbags and a two-tone paint job.
