The Toyota Century stands as Japan’s ultimate expression of luxury and craftsmanship. Reserved for the nation’s most prominent figures, each Century was built to order, with fewer than 10,000 produced over two decades. Assembled almost entirely by hand by a team of 43 master craftsmen, the Century reflects Japan’s culture of excellence, where individuals dedicate their lives to perfecting a single craft. This 2000 model carries that legacy forward, powered by Japan’s only production V12 engine and presented in timeless Piano Black Gloss. With its understated presence, serene ride, and unrivaled attention to detail, it delivers an exclusive and authentic VIP experience that few cars in the world can rival.

Under the hood, the Century is powered by Toyota’s legendary 5.0L 1GZ-FE V12, paired with a 4 speed automatic transmission and rear wheel drive. Designed for smoothness and reliability, the V12 delivers effortless acceleration while maintaining a quiet and refined ride. Factory air suspension remains under this example providing an even smoother ride and allowing a slight adjustment in ride height.

The interior is the highlight of the Century, supported by the smooth 5.0L V12 that powers this mansion on wheels. Every detail reflects the same dedication to craft that has made the Century the choice of Japan’s elite. Comfort and convenience are abundant, with digital climate controls, heated and power adjustable gray cloth seats, a power adjustable steering wheel, a fully digital instrument cluster, and a six disc CD changer to keep every drive enjoyable. Surrounding the cabin, gloss wood and brushed aluminum accents are meticulously finished, creating a first class atmosphere that showcases the refinement and care poured into every Century.

In the rear cabin, the Century is designed to remove even the smallest effort, with doors that gently pull themselves shut thanks to a soft close mechanism. The seats mirror the comfort of the front with plush gray cloth, power adjustments, and heating, while an integrated armrest console places audio and climate controls within easy reach. For added relaxation, the passenger side seat can recline nearly flat, while the front seat folds forward to create an ottoman style leg rest, a hallmark of Century comfort. Overhead, dimmable map lights, drop down vanity mirrors, and a digital clock are built into the headliner with exacting attention to detail.

Outside, the Century carries a minimalist nature. Rather than choosing to accentuate curves and create bold body lines, Toyotas designers gave the Century a smooth, long, and sleek look that really lets its luxurious temperament speak for itself. In a classic Gloss Piano Black, this Century doesn’t shout for the attention it deserves. With only minor scratches that would be normal to see in vehicles this age, this Century has aged like a fine, high end, wine.

While the 1GZ-FE wasn’t widely offered, over two decades of production have ensured that service and maintenance items remain readily available, often directly through Toyota dealers. Inside, the Century offers a spacious, comfortable cabin, a smooth and responsive V12, and a wealth of thoughtful features, all carefully designed and executed with the precision and dedication that Japanese craftsmanship is known for. In Japan, the Century has long been reserved for the nation’s elite, and owning one means experiencing that same commitment to quality and refinement every time you drive.
