Minty Toyota Tercel SR5 Wagon

[Nataku]

Spotted in my next door neighbor's driveway. This thing looked like it just drove off the showroom floor. Not a spec of rust. Paint was immaculate. I thought it was a cool spotting - you just don't see these anymore in any condition. Last time I saw one on the road was a couple years ago and was rusted to all hell.

That's the kind of spotting I love to see. These things are getting pretty rare, especially in that condition. Were SR5's AWD?

Haha, holy crap. My high school friend had one of those.

It was deeply, deeply abused.

Saw this thing in St Cloud a while back. Show room fresh

I would love one of those. although preferably not in showroom-fresh condition, so I could abuse it with no mercy.

Those are on list of odd cars I regularly search for, along with Corolla All-Trac wagons.

I thought this was a for-sale thread and I was contemplating selling many things to afford it. :/

[Nataku]

Yeah, I pulled up and when I saw it I had to do a double take. So. Clean. I'm going to ask my neighbor if he knows any deets on it (how and where the guy got it and the mileage).

[JK9K]

Is it a 4WD? Those with the 6 speed manual with the granny low 1st gear...so, awesome.

have never seen one before, looks super cool

[Nataku]

Spoke with my neighbor and he said it belongs to a nurse. He said he will ask her if she'd consider selling. I wonder how she ended up with it.....

Nice spot. Love the old Japanese wagons.

Saw an Accord 2 door wagon/hatch (what do they call those; shooting brake, brake shooters, balls schnikes?) on CL a few months ago and drooled all over the keyboard...

[Rhetoric]

I've always wanted one of these. There were a couple minty ones for sale up around St. Cloud a few months ago but I could never get in touch with the owner.

If she's willing to part with it, I'm interested...
