2006 Corolla LE sedan VIN # - 2T1BR32E76C591371
I bought this car new for my wife in 2006. It has had Mobil 1 engine oil in it since the first oil change and I've changed the oil at 5000 mile intervals since then. It has about 1000 miles on the last oil change. A few months ago I gave it to my son and bought my wife a new 2013. But he has to be a macho-man and drive a big SUV thing which he already complains costs too much to run. So now I'm selling the pretty-much perfect 2006. To you I guess.
Early on I replaced the wimpy OEM horns to some Serious loud and impressive sounding units. I later installed Continental's highest wet-traction rated tires and I guess they are still about half there. Fabulous tires too - they made it handle at least 200% better than the original tires - it just became a completely different car with the Continentals on it. The brakes are all new and the brake fluid was flushed and changed at 60K miles. Whatever it says in the owners manual to do to the car - I have always done. I always kept the car nice for her. Not too long ago, maybe last fall, the dealer replaced the CPU computer unit even though I specifically told them not to as I was having no issues with it. It was a recall and I guess they like to back charge Toyota whenever they can.
I have four Toyotas now and have had more in the past. They always treat me like gold, never cause any problems, and apparently run like a fine watch forever. One of mine is over 20 years old now too.
With less than 62K miles on this 2006 - my thought was that it would last my son well through his doctorate degree and then maybe he could teach His son to drive in it - but I guess he knows more than the old man. This 2006 will Run down the road too. It's astonishingly fast and has averaged about 32-34mpg ever since it was new. No wait; the first tank it got 30.9 mpg - but never again that low.
This is basically a clean, well cared for, adult driven, non-smoking Corolla which has no real flaws other the scrape on the rear bumper. I'm not sure that anything other than cloth grocery bags have ever been in the trunk. You can see that the paint looks very nice, the car has always been kept washed and waxed and under cover, the carpet and interior is nice, and everything functions just as it should with no issues. The car runs, drives, and looks great and will no doubt last for another 200K miles. I am Very sorry now that I didn't just keep this 2006 and not buy the 2013 at all.
Any questions - just let me know.
Good luck bidding.

Ford only automaker to make 2012 Buzz Rankings, Toyota most improved
Wed, 30 Jan 2013Ford landed itself a spot among the top 10 brands in the 2012 Buzz Rankings. The annual index scores 1,100 brands in 41 categories to determine which nameplates had the most positive buzz throughout the year.
For the third year in a row, Subway took the top honors overall with a score of 40.3, and Ford was the only automaker to break into the top 25 by earning a sixth-place finish overall. The manufacturer earned a score of 32.1 points, which was enough to push it up one spot from the 2011 Buzz Rankings. Honda managed 21.2 points overall, which is still well behind 25th-place Kohl's at 26.5 points. Toyota, Volkswagen and BMW all round out the top five automakers.
The 2012 Buzz Rankings also keep track of which brands improved the most over the past year, and this year, Toyota was the manufacturer with the largest leap forward. The Japanese automaker jumped from just 14 points in 2011 to 20.5 in 2012. Chrysler, Kia, Dodge and Volkswagen all saw sizable steps forward as well. Be sure to head over to the Brand Index site for more information.
Watch this cement truck roll into Toyota minivan from driver's point of view
Thu, 10 Apr 2014If you've been having an easy day and haven't received your daily dose of unmitigated terror, then this video is for you. Dr. Guan Zhu, a Texas A&M professor, caught the above view on his dashcam in College Station, TX, as a cement truck ran a red light, lost control and rolled into his Toyota Sienna minivan.
Although he received only minor injuries, Dr. Zhu says that he blacked out during the accident. The truck driver also avoided serious injuries, and the Sienna took the hit rather well too. Scroll down to watch the footage and report from KBTX. Hopefully, this is as close anyone else ever gets to a terrifying event of this nature.
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.
