This 2000 Toyota Hilux Surf SSR-X is one of those JDM SUVs that makes immediate sense for the U.S. market.
It is the Japanese-market counterpart to the third-generation Toyota 4Runner, but this example brings a combination that is especially appealing: 5-speed manual transmission, 4WD, 2.7-liter gasoline power, factory moonroof, rear spoiler, fog lights, and the classic two-tone Surf look with side graphics.
Under the hood is Toyota’s durable 3RZ-FE 2.7-liter DOHC inline-four, paired with a 5-speed manual transmission and 4WD. For American buyers, that engine is a genuine selling point, because the 3RZ-FE was also sold in U.S.-market Toyota trucks and SUVs, including the Toyota Tacoma and Toyota 4Runner. That gives this Surf a big advantage for long-term familiarity, service knowledge, and parts recognition in the United States.
With 202,107 km — 126,317 miles, this Surf has the kind of mileage that fits a tough, usable body-on-frame Toyota 4x4, and the overall configuration is much more interesting than the average automatic SUV.

The third-generation Hilux Surf is closely related to the U.S.-market 4Runner, but that is exactly part of the appeal. You get the same proven Toyota SUV formula — body-on-frame construction, real 4WD capability, generous cargo space, and durable truck-based mechanicals — but in right-hand-drive Japanese-market form with some equipment and style differences that make it stand out.
What really helps this one is the drivetrain choice.
A lot of imported Surfs are automatic, but this one is a manual-transmission truck, which makes it more engaging to drive and much more interesting for the buyer who actually wants a traditional SUV feel rather than just a commuter appliance. The 3RZ-FE is not a high-strung engine; it is known more for durability, simplicity, and dependability, and that fits the character of the vehicle extremely well.
The SSR-X trim adds useful comfort and appearance features, while the factory moonroof, field monitor, fog lights, and rear spoiler give this one extra personality. The two-tone white and silver exterior with Surf graphics gives it that unmistakable late-1990s / early-2000s Toyota SUV look that still works very well today.
Inside, the cabin is straightforward and functional, with the upright visibility and durable layout people expect from a genuine truck-based Toyota. The body style also gives you the versatility buyers still want from these: comfortable seating, a proper cargo area, and a usable footprint that works for daily driving, road trips, light off-road use, or general weekend duty.
For someone considering an imported diesel SUV, a U.S.-market 4Runner, an Xterra, a Montero, or another practical Japanese 4x4, this Hilux Surf offers a very strong mix of benefits: manual transmission, 4WD, U.S.-familiar 3RZ-FE power, factory moonroof, and true Toyota truck durability.
It is not just a collectible import — it is also something you can realistically own and use.
