2008 Toyota Crown Athlete GRS204 3.5 V6 Modellista Toms +M Supercharged
We are proud to present you with the chance of owning the only factory supercharged Crown Athlete GRS in the UK. A super rare opportunity not to be missed. Built by Modellista and TOM’s Japan as a joint collaboration, these vehicles were only built in very few numbers and only purchased by wealthy Japanese individuals due to the high list price when originally produced.
We cannot stress enough how rare it is to find such examples like this. This particular example has been cherished by its previous owner in Japan and benefits from some subtle modifications improving performance, drivability and appearance. Please read below for the full details:
6 speed Auto gearbox with manual mode (Rear wheel drive)
Toms GT shifter cable
Modellista water to air intercooler kit

The vehicle comes with an extensive pack of paperwork including all the original owners manuals, books, partial Japanese service history and paperwork for any aftermarket modifications that have been carried out. Since arrival from Japan a full service has been completed as well as a brand new water pump just fitted (Genuine Toyota). A complete four-wheel alignment has been carried out after the installation of coilovers so the car drives straight and true.
Sourcing a factory supercharged GRS204 in a similar spec would be a very difficult task. A truly collectable vehicle that will increase in value in years to come. Overall in fantastic condition for the age and mileage, exterior has minimal imperfections (detailed pictures available). The interior is a very pleasant place to be with modern styling and high levels of luxury. Little to no wear on seats or other areas and no bad smells or odours to report. Underneath is completely rust free and hasn’t been undersealed to hide anything.
Quite simply a blast to drive, tons of torque and power with the support from the supercharger. Would surprise a lot of vehicles on the road including all its German rivals and the noise from the supercharger is incredible even in stock form. If you are looking for a vehicle that combines performance and luxury then this is the car for you. These offer great value for money considering the spec and options you get from factory.
