A truly stunning example in excellent condition for the age and mileage. The 1JZ-GTE is renowned for its reliability and this vehicle has clearly been well cared for throughout its life in Japan. 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.
The exterior is very straight and presentable with little to no imperfections (detailed pictures available), likewise the interior is very neat and tidy. Underneath is solid and completely rust free, has not been under sealed to hide anything. Drives incredibly well, a great combination of both luxury and performance. Clearly a cherished vehicle by the previous owner in Japan. These are becoming very desirable vehicles that will rocket up in value over the coming years. Clean and genuine examples are becoming very difficult to source in Japan making this a great investment opportunity. We have seen a heavy price increase over the last year for all 1jz/2jz turbo vehicles, get one while you can.
