Toyota 2000GT, The First Japanese Supercar!
from Auto/Motive · host A/M
Toyota 2000GT First Built by Yamaha, this Japanese supercar has a short but rich history of high performance and successful racing! Thoroughly tested on Japnese race tracks, the 2000GT would eventually move to America where it would be raced by Carrol Shelby for one intense season before Toyota would pull the car, ending the potential to create a dynasty of racecars.
