For sale is a 1969 Toyota 2000GT, a truly iconic piece of automotive history, finished in its original Pegasus White. This exceptional example has lived its life in the UK and has only 22,000 kilometers on the odometer, reflecting careful ownership and limited use.

The Toyota 2000GT is widely regarded as Japan’s first supercar, designed in collaboration with Yamaha. Its sleek design and engineering excellence redefined the global perception of Japanese automobiles. The car gained international fame after being featured in the James Bond movie You Only Live Twice, with two special convertible versions crafted for the film to accommodate Sean Connery’s height. This helped the 2000GT solidify its place in popular culture and automotive history.

Under the hood, the 2000GT boasts a Yamaha-tuned, 2.0-liter DOHC inline-six engine producing nearly 150 horsepower. Its advanced features, such as all-round disc brakes, rack-and-pinion steering, and independent suspension, placed it in direct competition with European sports cars like the Porsche 911 and Jaguar E-Type. Road & Track described the 2000GT as "one of the most exciting and enjoyable cars we’ve driven," praising its luxurious interior and exceptional handling.

With fewer than 350 examples ever produced, the Toyota 2000GT is among the rarest and most collectible sports cars in the world. This car’s Pegasus White finish further enhances its allure, as only a handful were painted in this elegant color. It features a stunning rosewood veneer dash, created by Yamaha’s piano division, and a mahogany steering wheel, showcasing its artisanal craftsmanship.

This 2000GT’s UK history and low mileage add significant value to its provenance. Its immaculate condition and originality, paired with its rarity, make it a must-have for discerning collectors.

The 2000GT has experienced a meteoric rise in value in recent years, with prices regularly crossing $1 million at auction. According to data from Classic.com, the average value of the Toyota 2000GT has surged significantly, cementing its status as one of the most sought-after Japanese classics.
