All true but the Toyota Century is still a very complicated vehicle. Little sensors can fail. Replacing the can be a nightmare. Spark plugs are replaced every 100k. It’s a big job.
Found this channel while looking for reviews for a new car. At that time was thinking of the MG ZST. 2 weeks later I'm researching Japanese imports. What have you done!!! 🤩
I just bought one myself (black 6 speed car with wool interior) after looking at these for the last 3 years.... And honestly, it cost $10k less then a brand new Mazda 2 😂, my wife and family think im crazy, but i can't hear them or the other haters as i loft down the road in complete silence in my hand built vehicle made by a team of only 45 dedicated japanese craftsman 😂. Lifes too short to not own a 17foot long, near 3 tonne, V12 powered hand built japanese machineeee, happy sailing mate!
Such an awesome car and great to see Adam too! Looking forward to more content with Justin! Didn't realise that's what he went on to do after car reviews.
ReDriven, Cult n Classic and CarSauce - some of my fav legends in the car space, all coming together in one crazy af video. 😀😀🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼 Enjoy your Century, Matt. Waiting for more videos on that. 🙌🏼
Having my own Rideshare brand, when the mood took me I’d surprise riders in my 2005 (6spd) Century. Black, wool, lace and mirrors are the features that set it apart. When buffed, the paint stops even non-car people.
The best car shop anywhere. Cult and Classic are amazing. If you're into Japanese cars and the classics period, this is the place for you. I love my kei. Thank you Justin and Kathy.
Haven't watched the video yet but this is exciting! It's like we're going back to the old days when Matt bought crazy & wacky cars such as the SsangYong Chairman.
*New Subscriber* : That was great. You're car is fantastic. I'd trust Cult & Classic to buy a car, without hesitation. But I'd have to pay for it to be shipped to here in Europe :) Best of luck with your new machines. All the best and greetings from Prague, CZ
Damn nice car,actually after watching Adam’s review on the crown hybrid I actually bought that exact car in the exact colour ,love it to bits but the century I feel I’d love to own and try also…. Great review thanks guys 👍
I thought I recognised Gumnut Patisserie (Bowral) and then you guys mentioned Mittagong. One of the best bakeries near Sydney and especially in the Southern Highlands of NSW.
yes we dont know how to read foreign words. but this is 2024!!! your mobile phone caemra can help u read!!!!! And the walkman is for cassette player AUX-in to car for those who still used cassettes.
You bought one of the best cars and at $30000 so much cheaper than a Rolls Royce but so much better and the cars were you bought your Century very nice and l do see a couple of Toyota Corolla Fielders around
I'm sorry but you both looked under dressed as you drove in the Century. You needed black suits with white shirts with thin black ties and dark sunglasses. 😊
Last year there were plenty of these for sale in the low to mid 20k, and then since few youtube videos by Redriven and another channel, I saw prices went up and I’ve checked and I don’t see any for sale on CarSales 😮 … can these be imported from Japan?
does the rego go off cylinders down there? Owning one in QLD would be a nightmare with rego prices based of cylinders from a time when emissions offset was based off where you owned the XR8 or XR6 so the V12 would be a nightmare with the goverment thinking you owned a lambo.
I bought one almost 3 years ago and still love taking it out. Drives super smooth and gets lots of attention. You'll love it.
Thanks! Glad you like yours!
How much did it run you, if don't mind my asking

2 of the best car shows on RUclips, great to have Adam on the show, a classic car !!!
Re driven and car sauce cross over is pure gold 🥇
I have 2008, and I just love it. I explain driving her simply as, this v12 drives like an electric car, absolutely silent and effortless
These cars are truly amazing. Can't go wrong!! The amount of detail, craftmanship and pride that is put in each Century.

Made you consider a top quality Japanese car, rather than the others. .
39:00 You can't hear the V12 ? I remember when a tuber put on a $20K custom exhaust and had the car screaming like a F1 !
I remember that one, was insane, sounded like a jacked up Lamborghini Murcielago! LOL
Eff spot? Silly Aussies won't even give credit, like some UK class bias. Oh well 😂
you can still hear it whirring away when accelerating from a stop at city speeds, but once underway at light throttle it is almost inaudible.

Really enjoyed the video, Love the car, I do love cars from Japan, great to to see all you guy having a fun time.
Great video and congrats on the awesome Century…very nice!
Justin at Cult&Classic is the King of Rad cars
Take it to the legendary Sandro at Car Craft Auto Detailing to bring out that epic shine !!!

Justin is a legend. We’ve bought 2 century’s from him. Loveeeee those cars.

Them emblem is a Fenix. It represents Immortality.

And it’s only getting started 😅
Looks extremely practical aswell.
I did the next best thing LX570 - 2012
I get giddy every time I drive it. Buttons still click like they are brand new.
That's Lexus.
Love it, my 3 favourite people what a collab! 😁😁😁😁
japanese car exporter here.will be happy to get in contact with these importers in Australia.
Love the Century!!!!
Thank you!
Awesome vid guys. I am pretty jealous of daddy Jacob’s shirt
Saw one irl other day it's absolutely beautiful

I'm really happy you promoted the Ford Fiesta ST especially with the added head room needed for the rear passenger's "Hair"😅
Exciting, congratulations
Whitewalls look amazing on this car
Damn nice car,actually after watching Adam’s review on the crown hybrid I actually bought that exact car in the exact colour ,love it to bits but the century I feel I’d love to own and try also….
Great review thanks guys 👍
Loving this crossover 👍👍
What a beautiful car! Congratulations!!
That was great! Looking forward to the full review and the other new car!
Was that hotel the Moxy? And is it any good?
It's no Chairman but it'll do.. PS... Justin and C&C are the real goat
So are you going to install that 10000$ race exhaust😂
Toyota proved they can make a better car than ANYONE.
any ICEs.This is actually an advertisement for used car salesmen
Lol.. yes maybe but their products are reverse engineered from the Germans.
How good is this - Adam and you guys!!! 🤟💌🤟
Yeahhhhh. It's Adam.... The man 😃😃😃👍👍👍💯🎉
I saw one available online a few years ago that had a TRD V12!! I was so tempted to grab it !!!
Quite literally my dream car
feeling the excitment of getting your new old nicest car!
I’m picking up my 1997 Jzs151 1jz Crown with 75 klms on it this week .
What a kickarse vehicle!! Love em!!
(But please stop talking about your granny's curtains... 😂😅)
I have a dark grey 2010 in Perth and it's the best car ever!
Much better break dancing in the driver seat than the olympics 🎉
Hay Matt, Hay Jacob, Hey Adam, Hey G50 Century!
And it has the antimacassars on the seats. Perfect.
am currently on carsales shopping for one or import it i love it seen about 4 reviews of this century
Toyota is the greatest 👏🏾
Ok expect you fit it out with the Japanese style VicRoad plates when you get organised !
I take it your inspo came from throttle house? Different scale reviewers but both great and entertaining
It looks like the one CarWizard presented a cople of days ago. Very nice car
There is a shit tonne of fielders on the streets of Sydney. Strangely all in silver.
Beautiful century BTW.
I thought I recognised Gumnut Patisserie (Bowral) and then you guys mentioned Mittagong.
One of the best bakeries near Sydney and especially in the Southern Highlands of NSW.
outstanding vehicle, well done
I recently kept looking at a Toyota Century for sale on Facebook Marketplace in my favourite dark blue.
One of the funniest posts about the CENTURY
just checked cult and classic cars where all prices end in 90.........Some great buys.
Great watch. Fun.
My neighbor has one and it is awsome!
Not actually sure why/how I fan girled so hard when Adam turned up
Would like to see them do a new vs old challenge together some time
Their a Japanese Cadillac and built perfect by Toyota I've seen some cruising around Adelaide they look great real head turners 👍
You have to get a full Bosozoku exhaust, on it?
yes we dont know how to read foreign words. but this is 2024!!! your mobile phone caemra can help u read!!!!! And the walkman is for cassette player AUX-in to car for those who still used cassettes.
It’s supposedly used as a dictaphone by the busy executive.
Google translate loses a great deal in the translation!
You bought one of the best cars and at $30000 so much cheaper than a Rolls Royce but so much better and the cars were you bought your Century very nice and l do see a couple of Toyota Corolla Fielders around
Nice car video!😊
Justin is the best
HERE WE GOOOOOO DIFF CONTENT
Legends! 👍👍🤝
Toyota are and will always be the benchmark (not with the hilux) , but you get the impression that within 2-5 years they will be with this model.
A set of diplomatic plates and you could go on a crime wave.
got a thumbs up before i even watch it
You have purchased a BIG DADDY YAKUZA MAFIA MOBILE 🚘 🚙
CarSauce flags right now!
I'm sorry but you both looked under dressed as you drove in the Century. You needed black suits with white shirts with thin black ties and dark sunglasses. 😊
I would think parts sourcing when needed would be nightmare here in the USA
Yes for the V8. The 2nd Gen V12 is much easier.
Wow that Toyota blade would be a fun car to drive, it has a Toyota klugar engine in it 😅
A Ssangyong chairman to a century, what next? A Bentley flying spur?
Last year there were plenty of these for sale in the low to mid 20k, and then since few youtube videos by Redriven and another channel, I saw prices went up and I’ve checked and I don’t see any for sale on CarSales 😮 … can these be imported from Japan?
There are plenty on carsales
Perfect black, 6spd with low kms, wool, lace and fender mirrors will always fetch top dollar. Compromise and you’ll save $$$.
cool cars, but imagine if they came with some mopar colors like purple pink green and whathaveyou
So whats the deal with the earlier 4 speed vs the later 6 speed? Which is better and why? BTW thanks for a great video!
Well, I love the car, but does it not come with a KEEP LEFT UNLESS OVERTAKING warning feature.
Where are you going to get spare parts for it when it breaks?
Those seat covers are called antimacassar.
to truly enjoy it...i hear you need to sat at the back....particularly in the passenger side.....
"I'm a huge fan of Japan" also mistakes a Crane for a Rooster😅
what're the odds these start showing up as retro limo's
Do a 0,100km/h!🙏🏻
Places unnecessary wear and tear for a very underwhelming experience
Would love to own one of these. Where did you find someone to service it? Or, do you do your own maintenance?
Lismore Toyota did my car’s 50k service no probs
no way bro bought it
Believe it (my bank account definitely does 😭)
@@CarSauce The falcon ute is still your best car 😤
Can I suggest a pair of white driving gloves for your chauffeur?
Sorry mate that isn't a BBJ. It's a 737 300 or 400 freighter.
Looks like a gussied up Camry.
V12 that wouldnt pull the skin off a rice pudding
Anyone finding the engine underpowered is totally missing the whole point of this car.
does the rego go off cylinders down there? Owning one in QLD would be a nightmare with rego prices based of cylinders from a time when emissions offset was based off where you owned the XR8 or XR6 so the V12 would be a nightmare with the goverment thinking you owned a lambo.
Matt, that’s a freighter not a BBJ 😅
I live in Sydney and I've seen a Toyota Century around my area 3 times, wouldn't it be cool if this was the same one?
