EARTHY CARS SPOTLIGHT 04.06.2011

Spring is here (although so far it hasn't felt like it!). It is safe to say that there won't be any more snow (storms). If you need to change the snow tires on your car back to regular tires, then you should consider coming to Earthy Cars. Tire change overs at Earthy Cars cost $42.

EARTHY CAR OF THE WEEK: 2008 Toyota Prius

**UPDATED 04.26.2011**
At Earthy Cars, we have 8 FIVE Toyota Prius’s on the lot. If you didn’t already know, the Prius is a hybrid vehicle (half electric, half gasoline run). The Prius is the most fuel efficient mid-size vehicle sold in the United States; it is also the cleanest vehicle in the U.S., based on smog formation and toxic emissions. If you are looking to save money and/or environmentally conscience, the Prius is perfect for you. With gasoline prices rising day by day, you will save a lot of money if you're driving a Prius.

All the Prius’s on our lot are 2rd generation Prius’s. (MORE THAN)half of the Prius’s on our lot are 2008 models. There is little difference between the model years of the 2nd generation Prius. All models have a 48/45 city/highway MPG rating. All models have a navigation system inside (see photos below).

EARTHY CARS SPOTLIGHT 01.13.2011

Earthy Cars is ready for spring to arrive next week, what about you?

-Isa R.B., social media manager of Earthy Cars

HIGH HIGHWAY MPG VEHICLES:
About 3/4th of the vehicles on the Earthy Cars lot right now have a highway MPG rating of 30 or more. That means that per every gallon that is filled in these vehicles, you can drive 30 miles or more on the highway. This is great for those who commute long miles to work or other places, and really for everyone, since gasoline prices will take a hike.

EARTHY CAR OF THE WEEK: 2006 Scion xA - Blue


2006 Scion xA, Blue, Hatchback, 104250 mi, $8,900, 4-spd automatic, MPG = 27/35 http://ht.ly/3Z1Zr

I would describe the Scion xA as light and funky. Its aesthetically appealing to the younger crowd, & without much weight or space. The Scion brand is designed by Toyota - its quality is the same. Like any sub-compact vehicle, the Scion xA is fuel efficient.

The Scion xA has a premium audio system - several speakers and an MP3 compatible stereo. It also has power windows and an ABS system.

It is priced at only $8,500 - one of the lowest priced vehicles on our lot currently. It is an ideal vehicle for those looking for fuel efficient vehicles, or young couples, young singles, or students looking for something affordable but good quality (its style and nice stereo don't hurt either).

Sorry that I was ‘missing in action’ (MIA) last week, I have been having too much fun in Singapore! I will be back in the U.S. in a few weeks, and before then I will try to have my blogs in each week.

We have lots of new arrivals on our lot, plus a bunch more that will arrive shortly. The prices of almost half the vehicles on our lot have been discounted, up to $2000!

EARTHY CAR OF THE WEEK: MINI Cooper - 2007, Red



2007 Mini Cooper, Red, Hatchback, 67393 mi, $13,900 http://bit.ly/dU7aDj MPG = 27/36

The ‘Mini’ car brand has existed since 1959. The Mini came out of Great Britain, and is one of Britain’s national symbols – just as much as the Union Jack, BBC, tea, The Beatles, Gordon Ramsey, pubs, or fish and chips.

The Mini brand vehicles have always been consistent with each other and unique – all the Mini makes throughout the past 50+ years have a similar look, yet no other car brand has had a make similar to the Mini. It is small, kind of sporty, has two-doors, with a long, flat hood, but with plenty of room.

BMW purchased the Mini brand in 2000. They revived the design and released it as a ‘new’ Mini, with the same aesthetics as the previous Mini’s, but bigger and more powerful. This was when the Mini was made available to U.S. consumers.

The Mini is perfect for young or old couples without children around (or singles), who desire a vehicle that will stand out; those who want a high MPG vehicle to save gas / save the planet; or ‘Britophiles’ or British expats.

EARTHY CAR OF THE WEEK: 2006 VW Jetta 2.5



2006 Volkswagen Jetta 2.5, Silver, Sedan, 30315 mi, automatic, $12,900 http://bit.ly/eizefD MPG = 22/30

This 2006 Volkswagen Jetta is almost 5 years old, but it has only been used lightly. It only has 30315 miles on it. This car runs and look like new.

This 5th generation Jetta is 'bigger' in many ways. Besides being larger than the average sedan, and larger than previous generation Jetta's, it has a a 6-speed automatic transmission (normally, cars are just 4 or 5 speed) and a 10 speaker audio system.

The 2006 Jetta is great for those who transport children around frequently, or professionals who just like having a large, strong sedan.
