VERIFIED SELLER
In the Nineties, Toyota went a bit misty-eyed. They released a limited-production vehicle called the Toyota Classic. Inspired by the Toyota AA from the 1930s, the Classic sat on a Toyota Hilux platform and came with its running gear. This interesting pastiche of 1930s styling with 1990s mechanicals is supremely rare nowadays. Toyota sold just 100 units and charged US$ 75,000 for each one. So it isn’t often that a Toyota Classic comes our way, and yet, here we are. Say Konichiwa (Hello in Japanese) to this 1997 Toyota Classic from Chesterfield, Virginia. An excellent addition to a discerning collector’s lot, this curio has done over 230,000 miles which tells us two things. One, it’s pleasant to live with or else it wouldn’t have been driven this much. Two, it’s your typical bulletproof Toyota or it wouldn’t have survived. The way we see it, with the relevant maintenance, this vehicle can easily head for 500,000 miles!
