Someone has already mentioned the 2JZ straight 6 from the Supra and 1UZ V8 from various trucks and SUVs, as well as the 2RZ and 3RZ Hilux engines.

Toyota’s MR2 spyders have the hood release inside the glove box which is an unusual location. It’s an obvious effort to make the frunk key protected by using the locking glove box.

This switch/location comes up in every automotive oddity discussion.

Well yes, but also no.

Yeah, Toyota Motor Company (Japan) doesn’t always tell Toyota Motors North America everything.

Background checks can only do so much, even if Biden were to roll extensive checks out today.

I like how the title is suggestive of Kalashnikov being an inappropriate choice to help manufacture a vehicle when the automobile/firearm crossover has been happening for decades.

Worst financial decision I’ve ever made automotively? Spending time on this screenshot format of the question/answer of the day.

I have a Dreamcast and I love Toyota.  Where do I get all of these things?

It depends on what I define as embarrassing. The 1994 Chrysler Concorde was not a bad car, but it wasn’t cool and it was twice as bad when it broke, which was often.

Aren’t all racing movies cheesy by default?

There was also a blue.

I’m sure this will be splitting hairs with your statement, but the Lexus F-series cars are all Toyota engineered and post-date the MR-2 Spyder. Though, yes, the MR-2 Spyder was the last Toyota badged, Toyota engineered sports car.

Nope.  Buy old cars, treat them well, educate others.

The 3rd gen Prius, 2010-2015, has a similar LED.

Nobody needs lessons in becoming Dave Tracy.

This would be a super cool project. However, without a good source for parts, you’re going to struggle with any project. Toyotas don’t have a great sources for 15-year old parts, much less 54-year old parts.

I’d buy it, but I’m a Toyota engineer and nerd.

I moved from California to Michigan about 6 or 7 years ago due to the high cost of living. Though I left the tumultuous aerospace industry, not the tech industry.  Cali has it’s appeals, but its not for everyone all the time.
