Great video. Different from the other usual ones we've seen depicting the JZZ30 M/T and UZZ32 Active on a track. Wish I had a translation.

And here is the original Best Motoring test drive video for the then-new JZZ30, UZZ30 and UZZ32 Active. Not sure if all three sections were posted here before. Usually it's just the last chapter that is referenced.

In order:




And another Best Motoring video featuring a lot of Soarer segments:



And one of the original Japanese dealer promotional videos:

Great videos. Those Soarers fresh out of the oven did it for me!

Sorry for bumping this up.
But does anyone have the videos saved? They seem to be deleted on YouTube and I've tried to find them everywhere.

It still fascinates me how Lexus (Toyota) cars came with GPS Nav systems in the early 90's....and all other high-end car makers had them years later.

I don't what anyone says about German engineering....to me, Japanese engineering is hands down the best and most high-tech in the world.

Totally agree, Japanese stuff is just as good if not better in many cases.

The Germans have been riding on a brand image for decades. A lot of their products are garbage.

The German cars are pretty advanced but the electronics tend to give you trouble over time from what I hear.

The Soarer was a very advanced car. Even the old Soarers from the 80's were like that.
