This next yellow thing comes from tipper JB1025 who writes; Toyota Corolla super low miles Cleaner then Skeeter’s Peter. Is it worth this money ? Hard to find this clean! I’ve answered this question before, but I’ll ask again; Why is it that the nicest preserved classics are always equipped with automatic transmissions? Because the […]
It is difficult to remember that there was a time when Toyota made good looking cars for the average consumer, but here it is in the flesh. Feast your eyes on the two-tone brown-gold beauty with sharp lines and a hood with a subtle bulge — that is subdued style. And, I haven’t even mentioned the sweet liftback shape – yowza! This is the same company (Toyota!) that today makes all manner of bulbous monstrosities decked out with fake wings/scoops/lights, what happened? Find this 1986 Toyota Camry Liftback offered for $6,900 buy-it-now located in Irvine, CA via eBay.
The first generation Toyota Celica was built in Japan for world wide consumption from 1970 through 1977 and sold in large quantities as a Japanese downsized antidote to the bloated ‘Merican sports coupes of the day. In 1976 a liftback version was released in North America that resembled a 7/8ths scale Mustang, but regardless the […]
This next car appears to be a surprisingly well preserved example of a car from the year that Star Wars first splashed on the big screen. It is offered for no reserve, is one family owned..looks remarkably well kept and original(except for repaint). The only thing it appears to be missing are the “GT” stripes […]
I’ve always been a fan of the 6th generation T200 Toyota Celica…particularly in the liftback style — it combines decent sportiness (for a 90s Japanese economy car) with everyday practicality (hatchback!) and not-to-hideous styling. In fact, I quite like the aesthetics of the liftback, it sorta looks like a 7/8ths scale 3rd gen Toyota Supra. […]
By Matt –– Forgive me for making assumptions here but you, me, and all of our friends are priced out of the original Mazda Cosmo, Skyline GT-R, and Toyota 2000GT, among many other things. Most of us would have to switch to Ramen diets to even afford an RX-3 or 240Z that isn’t made of […]

The E70 Corolla was the fourth generation of Toyota’s best selling subcompact, and the last to retain a conventional longitudinal front engine rear-drive setup (with the exception of the AE86 “Hachi-Roku” coupe). It will be miserably slow with a slushbox, but somehow, it still manages to ooze cool. Find this 1980 Toyota Corolla TE72 offered […]
In 1979 AMC released a compact 4X4 oddball called the Eagle that was one part answer to the OPEC oil embargo and one part sheer insanity. 4X4s were supposed to be these big, short-wheelbase Jeepy things, or trucks, not a small station wagon shaped thing with optional wood siding!! AMC had just inadvertently created the […]
In the “completely boring when it was new but somehow cool and interesting now” category, please direct your attention to the specimen below. It is slow, pedestrian, and cheap – but if you need a commuter car and want something quirky yet still useful and reliable, compare this to anything else in the sub-$3k price […]
