1997 Toyota Century VG40 – Imported Japanese Luxury Flagship in Excellent Condition. (Prepare to turn heads!)

Presenting a well-preserved 1997 Toyota Century VG40, Japan’s ultimate luxury sedan and the pinnacle of Toyota’s engineering during its era. This rare executive-class vehicle features the refined 4.0-liter 1GZ-FE V8 (VG40 designation), rear-wheel drive, and the signature air-suspension setup that delivers an almost silent, float-like ride. Finished in a classic exterior color with the characteristic formal presence of a Century, it stands out as a genuine alternative to European flagships while offering legendary Toyota durability and build quality.

The car is in very good overall condition with only normal wear and tear consistent with its age. The body remains solid and straight, the interior shows appropriate patina without excessive damage, and all major systems function as intended. Mechanically, it has been maintained to a high standard and continues to ride exceptionally well—smooth, composed, and quiet on the highway or in town. No major mechanical issues are present, and the vehicle is ready for immediate enjoyment by a collector or enthusiast.

This Century offers the understated elegance, premium materials, and refined powertrain that made it the preferred choice of Japanese business and government elites. Ideal for someone seeking a distinctive, reliable luxury sedan with real presence and character. Serious inquiries only; please review all photos and ask any questions before bidding. Sold as-is with normal wear.

This vehicle will be sold as is. It is an import from Japan and will need to be inspected and registered according to the regulations in your State. Price adequately reflects this as the original list price was ~$70,000.00 in 1997 (the equivalent of $147,000.00 today).
