Vehicle Description
1997 Toyota Century Why This Car Is Special The Toyota Century is
considered by many to be the pinnacle of Toyota�€�s car
manufacturing capabilities. Some even go further to say it is the
pinnacle of car manufacturing across the board. Built to mark the
100th anniversary of the birth of Toyota�€�s founder Sakichi
Toyoda, this is one of the most understated statements of success.
We have a 1997 Toyota Century here at Skyway Classics with a 5
Litre V12 engine, air suspension, very plush interior, slick blue
paint, to deliver that super smooth and quiet ride. Features 1997

drivetrain is a huge 4996 cc 48 valve V12 with variable valve
timing. The Century�€�s engine was specially made for it and
doesn�€�t feature in any other Toyota. The engine transmits its
power to the rear wheels via a 3-speed automatic gearbox. It has
the factory engine cover that states V12 and has the factory
injection, power steering and brakes, air conditioning, with all
sitting in a factory looking engine compartment. Interior The
Interior is all factory and looks great with its blue cloth front
twin bucket seats, matching door panels, matching rear seat,
factory dash housing all the correct factory gauges and controls,
wood trimmed dash, door panels, and console, as well as the factory
stereo system, right-hand drive black steering wheel, blue carpets,
and the console mounted automatic shifter. The seats are huge and
more comfortable than most sofas with all adjustment being
electronic, with even a TV screen in the back, tastefully concealed
behind a fold down panel displaying the Century emblem. Passengers
can choose to follow the navigation screen or watch TV / films.
Everyone�€�s audio needs are met with a 9 speaker system. Above the
screen are two extra air vents for efficient heating/cooling of the
rear seat passengers. Exterior The build quality of the Toyota
Century is superb and attention to detail is everywhere. The first
thing to catch my attention was the quality of the paint, which is
in blue, you can tell it has been finished by hand. It has front
fender wing mounted wing mirrors, clean straight body panels,
tinted windows, great chrome and trim, and looks very much like a
high-end executive car, which it is. It rides on the factory wheels
with black sidewall tires and has a great stance and ride.
Conclusion The 1997 Toyota Century we have here at Skyway Classics

smoothness, build quality, attention to detail, comfort and sense
of occasion are all superb. For this reason don�€�t hesitate to
