Needless to say, if that car was my pride and joy it wouldn't see a overcast day much less a snowy one . Can you say hermitically sealed, hyperbaric chamber in my garage.

Awww sleeping beauty....


..until it wakes up... Headlights flicker open spilling demonic white glare over the road. Pouring out smoke from it's exhaust. Hits the open road.... ROOOOOOOOOOOOOARRRRRRRR....

Ahem... Back from DnD Soarer role playing....

Nice pics!

This car is now owned by an English guy called Peirs (who lives in Japan), and is a member of the Toyota Imports Forum. He is thinkng about shipping it to the UK so we can play with it, his outrageous VVTi single turbo is over here at the moment.

I agree that car would not see rain let alone snow. Hopefully that beauty will be garaged real soon. BTW is that hood carbon fibre and where can it be pruchased?

nice finds.

but seirously...there's as much snow on that car as there is snow on the ground so what's the point of that ...shelter looking thing?

but yeah...sadly to say that car probably has more valuable cars kept safe and doesn't have anymore room left for the damn soarer.

I think Peirs has now seen the error of his ways;

WTF , a convertible?? I like the car but for some reason convertibles have never sparked any interest in me. Also whats the point of blocking the plates on the 3rd pic but they're in plain view in the 1st and 2nd pic

I hate all convertibles but this is pretty unique, forget the soft top what about the 5.0Ltr, Eaton Supercharged 1UZ motor !

The showroom shots are from the Japanese dealer, they must have thought it prudent to blank the plates.
