In Tokyo atm and saw this wild retro sedan. What is it? I’m usually not stumped but I am this time.

That backlight could only be better if there was a sunken spare tire along the edge of the boot.

That rear glass. The reverse hinged doors.
I'm in love with this.

Same!

A Toyota Origin. Short-lived and on the same platform as the Altezza.

Wow really??? So a cousin of the Lexus IS then…wow!

Wow, they built so few! Crazy that they would engineer a whole new body and suicide doors and build only about a thousand total. I do see that the earliest examples will be eligible for US import in May!

Wow!

I spotted it last year in Shibuya.

ekimap.bsky.social•43 days ago

Well that’s exactly where I spotted it. It was near Tower Records. It could be the same car, given how few exist!

tamerlaneblog.bsky.social•43 days ago

Same car!

Damn, this thing looks awesome!

I love this.
