**Description:**

Hey guys and gals! Up for sale is my S12!  
It’s the closest thing I could find to a brand new S12.

**Details:**  
-One owner (minus me).  
-Very clean!  
-It remains unmodified and dealer serviced, no screwing around, no ghetto fixes.  
-Auto (I know, but it gets very decent fuel economy, generally sits at 1500rpm when cruising)  
-CA20E, CA18, KA, SR, apparently all bolt in.  
-Factory Sun roof, with sun shade, and sun shade cover in trunk.  
-It Talks! ‘Lights are on’ ‘Keys are in the ignition’, etc.  
-AM/PM alarm clock built into the dash.

_The Rough edges:_  
-Antenna is broken.  
-Power steering needs repair.  
-AC needs charging.  
-E-brake doesn’t work.  
-Few little spots of rust.

_Shoot me a PM, email me, or call me!_

It’s been a few days, I think I’ll give this a little bump. Feel free to make offers, I’m not a mean guy! Also, feel free to ‘shit’ in my thread, It bothers me when people can’t post their thoughts.

Well, it’s a CA20e, other motors bolt in so the transmission can come out with it. However, that being said, the auto transmission cruises at low RPMs, which is decent for fuel economy as you save for your motor swap. The auto is what has kept this car from being picked up buy some punk and beaten on.

just to confirm,  
this being an 86’ the emission’s testing is no longer required?

I’ve seen this car in person, it literally is exactly as clean as Quinn says. I’ve even driven it… runs perfect! Definitely the fastest car I’ve ever driven…

errr, maybe not the last part.

+1 for good seller, and good car.

Thanks Mark. 🙂

The car really does run exceptionally well. It’s one of those vehicles where you turn the key even a bit and it just fires right away.

The interior is blue, it’s in even better condition than the exterior, the only issue is a worn spot on the drivers headrest.

I’m a bit disappointed as I haven’t even had anyone to come out and look at the car in person.

A friend of mine runs a Supra shop, He bought my first gen Supra when I had it. Those MK3 supra interiors are just nasty. I really like this one though, the clock has a grid in the back round, like grid paper. Being someone interested in design, it’s a neat little reminder of my interest, and if there was a ruler in the car, you’d have everything that was used to design the exterior.lol

The interior is very nice in it though, a dark blue, with some patchwork style cloth in the center of the seats and a polished aluminum look to the radio front and controls. Very 80’s, especially when Molly pipe’s up and tells you you’ve left your keys in the ignition.

I’ve got a picture of my old car with my current one somewhere…ah, here it is!

just by looking at it I can tell that it’s a clean S12. S12 is a rarerity in it self.

SR swapped it and your smiling 😃 it’s lighter than the fat S13 hahaha even KA swap is much better than the CA20E it has. I’ve own 2 of them and they’re fun to drive.

This really needs to sell, please, come take a look. $1800 OBO.

I don’t mind if people post/chat in this thread. It’s all been positive comments and questions, which I find constructive to the sale of the vehicle.
