Toyota Century's are non-existant over here. It takes them 30 years just to update the exterior. I have no idea what the interior looks like. Plus seeing the Century is quite expensive, it goes up against the Lexus LS. At that price point, I'd go for the LS.

While VERY, VERY outdated, it looks very solid. As if it were carved out of a solid chunk of steel.

I've always wanted a Toyota Century. It does look a little outdated, but it's still a pretty cool car once you put some nicer wheels on it.

I want a V12 from a Century to drop in an SC400 or a MKIV Supra.

What concerns me is that it looks like the car has a rear pull-across curtain and a boxes of rubber gloves and tissues on the back deck.

Never seen or heard of one! Does look high quality though. Are those curtains in the rear?
