THIS is The COOLEST Toyota You Will EVER SEE!

We check out the coolest Toyota ever made. The top of the line luxury model that is of the level of a Rolls Royce or a Bentley. And it also comes with Toyota's one and only V12 Engine!
The Toyota Century. A swan song of everything Japanese. A very cool luxury car that initially won't wow you or really bring your attention until you start looking at the finer details.
It has always been my belief that the Toyota Century is a moving work of art. We take a look at a beautiful 1997 Toyota Century V12.
Even though this is a 25 year old car, that V12 is very much a Toyota engine. Whisper quiet and smooth.
Special thanks to the owner Tim who brought us this special car and allowed us to film and share the car with you.

Wonderful review! I bet the employees and bosses at Toyota are going to be amused watching this, and pleased by your enthusiasm and respect for the car. It reminds me of the trips I used to take to Japan, when I had a chance to see cars you would never see in the US. Even riding in some of the taxis was a completely different experience, especially regarding the ride quality and driver behavior and professionalism Japan is very much a different culture, and I enjoy it for that reason!

Daylin, Unless parts availability become an issue. Even if you are lucky enough to source from Japan, there's still the time (ship) and/or cost (jet) to get them here. It's surprising/discouraging that Ahmed mentioned the difficulty getting an oil filter for it. That's a key part. I hope he does another video as he attends to the oil leaks it's there to be fixed. It's a special car for sure. Probably not the best choice as a daily driver. Maybe reserve it as a daily driver for 3 seasons so it's not exposed to our salt. Great video though! Ahmed, I suspect you may get to own this very car in the future.👍🙏

Hi, The Car Care Nut I am Chinese. I don't know about this car, but I can understand from the literal meaning of the two buttons on the left side of the steering wheel, the leftmost one is to turn the rear curtain on and off. The second button is for adjusting the height of the body. Press down is raised. I hope it can help you!

Awesome video!! The Japanese will be remembered for there impeccable quality of manufacturing. We owe them a debt of gratitude for the ultra reliable automobiles they produce. There honor will not let them produce anything subpar. Extremely fascinating culture. Hats off to them.

[@hushmotor1]

I'm Japanese, and I appreciate to your words. I used to adore German cars, because of their beautiful design. But since I owned a used Audi A4, I was very disappointed with the poor quality. It broke so quickly, and the repair cost was so high! I sold it quickly because I sensed it would surely eat more money. Now I respect Japanese car manufacturers way more than before. My current car is Mazda.

Ask the Chinese how they will always remember the Japanese. I mean, sure, we can appreciate good traits in themselves, but we shouldn't neglect to study the enabling circumstances, because otherwise we start to worship ugliness.

I'd love to see one just to look at the paint. I was lucky enough to see a Nissan PRESIDENT recently, and it's very similar to this, but the paint isn't anywhere near what this is like. I believe that one was "only" a V8 as well. Blows my mind Toyota makes a V12, let alone for only one car.

Love your videos, and this one is extra cool! May I suggest that at some point you consider using manual focus when trying to show engine components that are partially hidden? The hydraulic power steering pump is a great example (around 13:28) - there is no autofocus video camera I know of that could have grabbed focus on that (unless it is a higher end one that allows for spot focus.) As a retired shade-tree mechanic, I really enjoy when you point out various components, so just a suggestion to help make excellent videos even better :-)

You will need Hagerty Historic Vehicle insurance, and drive 3000 (or under) miles per year. Yours may not have a Catalyt##%% on the exhaust. If you get the copper historic license plate, you will not need ADEQ inspection. Look up Hagerty. Do not go to MVD "services" subcontracting agencies. go directly to a MVD/ADOT Government operated office. Before you buy Hagerty Historic vehicle insurance, you must visit an MVD/ADOT Government operated office FIRST. I have the Az copper historic plate on my 4Runner 32 years old. The exhaust system on Century is practically identical to my 95 LS400, except I have a CAT coming off each exhaust manifold , a resonator & 4 mufflers.
