I found this interior shot from Hot Rod. The table looks different now, but the same shag carpet and green & gold trim.

Don’t spill any water on the shag carpet or the pot seeds will start to sprout.
...I’m pretty sure I got an STD from looking at the pictures. At the very least I’m going to need some Purel.
I would buy it, totally expecting the IMS to go, and then part out the car. An IMS repair can be a solid $2500.
One of my neighbors has one. It has a malfunctioning taillight (flashes intermittently)and is missing trim. I think it’s around MY2016.
Obligatory:
The best looking Volvo vehicles are the concepts that don’t actually look like a Volvo. I’m sure it will get an extreme dullness makeover if it goes to production.
Runs? Check!
Fer Sure! Cheap yellow conversation-starter and you’re not going to find very many others. Anything effed-up is an easy and cheap fix! Excellent, Wayne!
It’s a simple idea, and renting instead of owning is the way to go here. I know several people with Zoes and they’re all happy with them.
This is a really silly take of course. 25 years ago you could probably have bought this thing for $500. That fact that it is now a VERY rare survivor is jacking the price up. It will inevitably continue to appreciate, assuming someone doesn’t try to use it as a daily driver. Any Subaru of this vintage that isn’t a…
Not exactly the most attractive looking car. Sort of reminds me of a potato.
It’s still breathtakingly ugly though. I’m not sure that a shifter fixes that.
I had a chance to look over this car when it was for sale in 2018, in San Jose. It was on Bring a Trailer, you can see it’s the same one (same chassis number, purchased new by Otto Linton) https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1967-toyota-2000gt/
I’m usually a “Live & Let Live” kinda bloke but I think a 2000GT should remain stock. A car that rare and beautiful is perfection. I’d like a word with whoever did this...
Anyone who talks of chopping up and ruining a 2000GT should be permanently removed from Jalopnik...
“I’m tellin’ ya, Morty, as soon as we figure out how to chew this goddamn french fry, we’re eatin’ like kings! KINGS, Morty!!”
My favorite genre: gull-on-gull action with toys!
Im pretty impressed. New model from a new company with new tech should have more failures than this. That being said, it’s relatively easy on a car to do miles over a short time period, especially highway miles.
