1997 Toyota Classic

Ultra-rare, limited edition, retro-styled luxury cars aren’t usually among the first images that come to mind when one thinks of Toyota. In fact, at first sight, it would be perfectly understandable to mistake this car for a product from another manufacturer. However, this is very much a Toyota through and through. Only 100 examples of this very exotic automobile were ever produced to celebrate the 60th anniversary of the very first Toyota passenger car: the Toyota AA (or Toyoda AA, as it was called initially). The original AA was inspired by the Chrysler products of the era, as Mr. Toyoda (father of Toyota) had a Desoto Airflow shipped to Japan and reverse-engineered. The Toyota Classic debuted in 1996 and was priced at approximately $75,000. It was styled to look as close as possible to the car it was paying tribute to, while meeting modern regulations and standards. All 100 examples were sold out, partly fueled perhaps by the rising popularity for retro-styled cars in 1990s Japan, as seen by the Mitsuokas of the time and by the Toyota Origin that would come out a few years after the Classic.

Toyota's Land Cruiser 100 Series marked a major turning point for the legendary off-roader when it debuted in 1998, introducing greater refinement, improved road manners, and a more sophisticated chassis while preserving the rugged capability that made the nameplate famous worldwide. Among the various configurations offered internationally, the diesel-powered HDJ100 stands out as a particularly desirable choice for enthusiasts, thanks largely to its renowned 1HD-FTE turbocharged inline-six engine. This 2000 Toyota Land Cruiser HDJ100, showing approximately 63,053 miles, pairs that highly regarded 4.2-liter diesel powerplant with a four-speed automatic transmission, four-wheel drive, a dual-range transfer case, and locking differentials. Finished in Champagne Pearl Metallic over a Gray leather interior, this example also features 17-inch aftermarket Raceline wheels, Cooper Discoverer tires, a power sunroof, and an upgraded sound system with a backup camera. Its combination of relatively low indicated mileage, desirable diesel power, and genuine off-road hardware makes this HDJ100 an appealing choice for collectors and enthusiasts who appreciate the Land Cruiser's enduring engineering legacy.

The Toyota Land Cruiser 80 Series earned its reputation through exceptional off-road capability, rugged body-on-frame construction, and the durability that made it a favorite among overlanding enthusiasts worldwide. This 1996 Toyota Land Cruiser FZJ80 Restomod takes that legendary foundation considerably further, transforming the original SUV into a thoroughly reengineered machine built around modern V8 performance, advanced suspension technology, and premium craftsmanship. Showing just 2,776 miles on the odometer, this example features a GM 6.2-liter LS3 crate engine equipped with a Whipple 2.9-liter supercharger, paired with an extensively upgraded RPM Transmissions Level VII four-speed automatic. The mechanical build and underbody restoration were handled by Hardline Fabrication, encompassing the chassis, drivetrain, and numerous supporting systems. Finished in Gray with Black lower bodywork over a custom Beige leather and Alcantara interior, this Land Cruiser is equipped with Terrain Tamer suspension components, Eaton locking differentials, Rays Gram Lights wheels, and a ComeUp winch. Inside, heated and ventilated Scheel-Mann seats, custom upholstery, and a premium Dynaudio and JL Audio sound system bring an entirely different level of refinement to the classic 80 Series platform. Combining extensive mechanical upgrades with an equally detailed approach to interior comfort and off-road capability, this Land Cruiser represents an ambitious interpretation of Toyota's iconic four-wheel-drive SUV.

The Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40 earned its legendary reputation through decades of rugged engineering, exceptional off-road capability, and a straightforward mechanical design that made it a trusted companion in some of the world's most challenging environments. This 1976 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40 carries that heritage forward with an extensively modified, adventure-ready configuration that combines vintage Toyota character with a more aggressive off-road appearance. Showing approximately 92,506 miles, this example is finished in Gray over a Black interior and features a Black bikini soft top, removable half doors, and an aftermarket roll bar for an open-air driving experience. Under the hood sits a 4.2L naturally aspirated 2F inline-six engine paired with a 4-speed manual transmission and a part-time four-wheel-drive system. Its lifted suspension, oversized BFGoodrich Mud-Terrain tires, aftermarket chrome wheels, front-mounted winch, and six Hella auxiliary off-road lights contribute to its purposeful appearance. Additional highlights include diamond plate exterior accents, a GT Grant steering wheel, and an aftermarket stereo system. With its unmistakable boxy styling, substantial off-road equipment, and classic manual-shift drivetrain, this FJ40 offers enthusiasts an appealing combination of Toyota's celebrated four-wheel-drive heritage and personalized adventure-oriented styling.

The Nissan 350Z helped reignite enthusiasm for affordable Japanese sports cars in the early 2000s, bringing back the legendary Z-car formula of a naturally aspirated six-cylinder engine, rear-wheel drive, and unmistakable styling. This 2004 Nissan 350Z Touring Roadster takes that celebrated formula a step further with open-top motoring, premium comfort features, and a particularly attractive color combination. Showing just 48,644 miles, this example is finished in Pikes Peak White Pearl over a Frost leather interior, complemented by a black convertible soft top. As a Touring model, it offers desirable amenities including heated leather-appointed seats, a Bose premium audio system, and automatic climate control. Equipped with a 3.5L V6, a 5-speed automatic transmission, and factory 18-inch alloy wheels, this 350Z Roadster delivers the engaging character of Nissan's Z-car heritage in a comfortable, well-equipped convertible package.

The fourth-generation Toyota Supra has become one of the most celebrated Japanese performance cars ever produced, earning its reputation through distinctive styling, remarkable engineering, and the legendary tuning potential of its 2JZ-GTE engine. Introduced in 1993, the A80-generation Supra represented Toyota's ambitious entry into the world of high-performance grand touring cars, combining a sophisticated twin-turbocharged powertrain with a rear-wheel-drive chassis capable of competing with some of Europe's finest sports cars. This particular 1995 Toyota Supra Turbo, showing 97,310 miles, is finished in Black over an Ivory leather interior and features an especially desirable configuration: a factory six-speed manual transmission. Powered by the renowned 3.0L sequential twin-turbocharged 2JZ-GTE inline-six, this example also features an aftermarket exhaust system and a Kenwood touchscreen multimedia system with navigation. Additional highlights include the factory rear spoiler, 17-inch alloy wheels, and optional Leather Trim Package. With its timeless A80 styling, legendary twin-turbocharged engine, and engaging stock manual transmission configuration, this Supra captures the spirit of Japan's golden era of performance cars while offering an increasingly sought-after driving experience.

The 1995 Nissan Skyline GT-R V-Spec represents one of the most celebrated generations of Nissan’s GT-R lineage, combining the RB26DETT twin-turbocharged inline-six with sophisticated all-wheel-drive technology and a chassis engineered for serious performance. This right-hand-drive example shows approximately 36,337 miles and is finished in Spark Silver Metallic over a Gray interior. Beyond its desirable V-Spec specification, it has been further upgraded with an HKS exhaust system, K&N air filters, BC Racing BR Series coilovers, an upgraded turbocharger, and an aftermarket ECU tune with a chipped ECU. It also features an Old Logo NISMO Black Gauge Cluster and a Special Edition Nardi FET Steering Wheel, giving this R33 a strong mix of period-correct Japanese performance character and enthusiast-focused upgrades.
