The Toyota 2000 GT, developed in conjunction with Yamaha, was Japan’s first Supercar, with a production of just 351 units, most of which stayed in Japan. However, 50 did reach the United States, and at a list price of $6,800 they were slightly more expensive than a Jaguar E-Type or a Porsche 911. They were introduced in “You Only Live Twice,” the James Bond film, in which he drove a specially-built convertible version. With a top speed of 135 miles per hour, the 2000GT proved that Toyota could build a sports car that was competitive on the world stage. This is a highly original and correct 2000GT, with the only modification being an upgraded aluminum radiator.
