Celica Forums News Portal Industry News This Modern Toyota 2000GT Will Haunt Your Dreams in the Best Way [TopSpeed]

Back in the late 1950s and early 1960s, Toyota was mostly known for building cars that were embarrassing to drive. The company made a name mostly because its cars were some of the cheapest on the market. But, while the road-going cars were nothing to write home about, Toyota’s racing division scored amazing results during the Japanese Grand Prix events in 1963 and 1964. With a history of more than 30 years now, Toyota wanted to enter an all-new segment and prove it can build cool sports cars. And, over the years it did. Of course, it’s easy to think about names like the Celica or the Supra, but it all started back in 1965 when the 2000GT was first presented.
