If you are in the market for a Crown or 1JZ powered vehicle then you will appreciate that this is a one-off example that will increase in value in years to come. Overall, in outstanding condition for the age and mileage. The exterior still retains a very glossy finish to the paintwork and the pearl really pops in the sunlight, has to be seen to be appreciated. There is very little imperfections with the only exception being the roof which suffers from patches of lacquer fade (a common issue with Japanese import vehicles)
The interior is in exceptional condition with so signs of stains or damage and very little wear in the common areas. Clearly well preserved by the previous owner with no bad smells or odours to report.
Underneath of the vehicle is completely rust free and hasn’t been undersealed to hide anything. The 1JZ-GTE is renowned for its reliability and this one is no exception. Drives very well and noticeable quicker than stock with the additional modifications. We have imported well over 50 of these crowns in recent years and inspected hundreds out in Japan. From those inspected we hand pick only limited examples that meet our standards and expectations.
