Your bidding on this 1991 Toyota Celica. It has been a daily driver for several years until we purchased a new car this week. We bought the Celica a few years ago from a local used car dealer. It was our understanding that he replaced the engine with a good used one. The car is solid and runs good but has some problems that we were not interested in repairing, primarily that the 5 speed will not stay in 5th gear. In addition:

  • The ignition tumbler needs to be replaced. It locked up and was forcibly removed. There is no damage to the housing. We start it with a screwdriver.
  • The convertible top leaks and has a small hole in the rear window. It opens and closes fine mechanically.
  • The driverside trunk hinge is broken and will need replacement. The trunk lid is bent at the edge as a result.
  • The passenger taillight lense is cracked. It was glued together and did pass inspection.
  • The valve cover leaks.
  • The engine smokes on start-up but runs good and gives good gas mileage.
  • We suspect that the right front shock is bad. We've never replaced the shocks.

The car has potential to be used if you're interested in doing the work. It has good power, handles great, and is a lot of fun.

Please ask any questions you may have. Buyer pick up.

GM repairing 40,500 Pontiac Vibes as part of Toyota airbag recall

Wed, 09 Apr 2014

General Motors has confirmed to Autoblog that the Pontiac Vibe is included in Toyota's just-announced recall action. The Vibe and the Toyota Matrix share a large number of parts, including the affected cable to the airbag.
"About 40,500 Pontiac Vibes from the 2009-2010 model years are included in the Toyota recall. Toyota designed and engineered the Vibe for Pontiac. GM will service customers with these vehicles when Toyota makes the parts available," said GM recall spokesperson Alan Adler to Autoblog in an email.
The recall covers 1.3 million Toyota units in the US, including 2009-2010 Corolla, Matrix and Tacoma, the 2008-2010 Highlander, the 2006-2008 Rav4 and 2006-2010 Yaris, plus the addition of the 2009-2010 Vibe. The models all have their airbag module attached via a spiral electrical cable. The connections on this cable can be damaged when turning the steering wheel. Once broken, the airbag deactivates and the airbag warning light comes on. Toyota has an improved part, but it's still making preparations to begin repairs. It will begin notifying owners soon.

10% of Toyota China dealers may drop due to losses

Thu, Jan 1 2015

News about the auto industry in China is usually positive thanks to booming sales and an ever-increasing number of factories across the country. But in some cases, it appears that the dealers with the job of actually selling all of those vehicles are having trouble finding buyers. The result is cars piling up on lots and showrooms resisting against automakers. Japanese automakers already face a tough road to success in China, but the FAW-Toyota joint venture is especially struggling this year. According to Bloomberg, as many as 10 percent of the dealers might have to close or stop selling the brand because they just can't make money selling the vehicles on their lots. Also, 95 percent of the showrooms are reportedly losing money. The issue facing FAW-Toyota sellers is mostly a case of supply and demand. Automakers in China mandate the number and types of vehicles that dealers sell. However, the inventory from all makes is at its highest level since August 2013, according to Bloomberg. The situation leaves dealers with packed lots, and cars often require discounts to move. Making matters harder is that showrooms have annual sales targets, which are linked to bonuses. This money can account for over half of the sellers' annual profits, according to Bloomberg. The FAW-Toyota dealers are pushing back by asking Toyota for 2.2 billion yuan ($355 million) to pay for costs associated with the extra inventory. It also lowered sales targets by six percent earlier this year and has requested no increase in the numbers for 2015.
