This Toyota Tercel<\/i> station wagon was the only car we ever bought from Toyota Center<\/i>. Usually we dealt with Dick Dyer<\/a> since they were a lot closer, but for whatever reason, Toyota Center<\/i> had the car we wanted at the time we needed it (even then, 5-speeds were getting harder to come by). The car (which we called The Leatherneck<\/i> based on a title in the detailing) was a bit of a dog, as Toyota<\/i> never should have put an engine that small in a body that big, but that wasn't Toyota Center<\/i>'s fault, and as I recall they were fine.<\/p>\n

This summer they pulled up stakes for both their new and used operations from their longtime Airport Boulevard location, and relocated to US-378\/Sunset Boulevard near I-26. I have not yet seen the new location, but judging from nearby billboards they have also changed their name as part of the move.<\/p>\n

On Airport Boulevard, the \"new\" car center was on the west side of the street at 1640 and the \"used\" car center was on the east at 1645.<\/p>\n
