At Tokyo Auto Salon in another familiar, Mazda MX5 , the first of Eunos Roadster was made ​​based on the Lotus, is a replica of the" great car "phantom. Rise further this year is mature, playful than ever had been.

The other day introduced the vehicle that had been converted to solar EV was, "said the phantom great car Toyota 2000GT ". I think that a very difficult country's first full-scale sports car when I was released in 1967 is 337 units for very low total production volume slightly, now tries to get, and you understand.

It's difficult to find the first vehicle in good condition, as was found in excellent condition vehicle Fortunately, the new car, perhaps Ferrari should be much price can buy is attached. Suppose that came true patiently looking for a lot of money still available to own. Then that in turn ride very hard. S car in front of more than 40 years anyway. Even though it finished in no matter how clean, easy to drive around in the city mean that modern does not go Oh yeah. If such a thing would be very painful and the 2000GT, both physically and mentally.

But people want to ride comfortably in the city of elegant contemporary style car that somehow, they will not at least fantasized about. Even if there is only one car more than the 2000GT in terms of performance, that if I fell in love with brackets, otherwise never substitute does not work. If you think you want to run around the streets of modern comfort in the car that money aside, with the style of 40 years ago, is considered a means of roughly two.

One engine, transmission, suspension, etc., where many of the body other than the change would put modern parts of the car how. Is over, "Cyborg" If human analogy. Another, with modern technology make something close to real as possible, "said replicant" and as it were. It was a long introduction, "in the Aichi Prefecture roadster garage "is a company to realize their dreams by way of the latter, working for a long time coming. Two years ago, called type S30 Nissan "founder of Fairlady Z was produced based on the "" AKI-Coupe and "Mazda" Eunos Roadster "based" Princess Dragon roadster named ", introduce the 2000GT two replicas was .

Felt that when at the time, who show a current car, AKI-Coupe is a very high degree of completion, from that value as a historic car is higher that in itself base vehicle type Fairlady Z S30, future impression that also continues to be fabricated, would be difficult. Princess Dragon roadster is (comparatively), but also affordable 4,800,000 yen and also rich in car-based production costs, was a "degree is similar to the 2000GT" proportions and detail, such as that, and Imahitotsu.

However, the roadster replica 2000GT spirit applied to the production of the garage but it was not not stop there. This year's Tokyo Auto Salon in, exhibitors model evolved dragon princess roadster named "Dragon Princess Final roadster", a coupe and convertible. In addition, the one that mimics the vehicle prototype when challenged to establish a new international record another class of 13 records and three world in proving ground speed of Yatabe prior to launch to "speed trial high-speed endurance" is Toyota 2000GT, 1968 SCCA of the United States, "(with Sports Car Club of America) Class C Series Cobra is famous for production of " Carroll Shelby until he had a replica of the car specifications side-by-side racing teams competing from.

From Princess Dragon roadster of previous proportion was less sophisticated in order to get closer to the 2000GT of real addition, the front window If you look closely at the final Princess Dragon roadster that it is "final form of the replica finest cars of illusion" atmosphere, but enough has been changed to something big like the original shape was round.

To this modification that was needed major surgery, such as transplant back on the mounting position of the A-pillar. In addition, it Eunos by roadster because it has become impossible to be diverted to the center console and instrument panel, the new design was made ​​in a similar real. Newly restyled doors left and right, so that the faithful reproduction of the door of the 2000GT and extending to the front of the A pillar. was the outer handle of the door with the Princess Dragon roadster that had been diverted part of the "Toyota Celica" first, this is likely was produced causing the type newly Again, the thing of the same shape as the original design. Thus, newly manufactured parts that are kind to "reprint" to each detail of the 2000GT is that the workmanship was of about the person who owns the 2000GT of real use to repair the car.

Even with a replica in this way, through the people in your owner's club passion for it and the high degree of completion will be offices and also seen from the 2000GT owner, obtained a friendship, a captain in the Works team "Team Toyota" former that I was introduced to Mr. Hiroshi Hosoya, he was square, it was an opportunity were painted yellow and green of production specification car "speed trial". Impressed by Mr. Hosoya is responsible for the drive of the vehicle at the time of the challenge-speed trial high-speed endurance was conducted in 1966, take a look at the final Princess Dragon roadster "and would not have to be neat", "( specification car speed trial who told me that he says! "I'll be supervised by) me. Thanks to the cooperation of Mr., photos and article are open to the public and can be made ​​possible to part quite difficult to understand, to reproduce realistic. Sign was placed in the hood, those curious to see Mr. Tomohiko was behind the wheel at a speed trial with Captain Hosoya. Wheel is a lot like design of the center lock magnesium wheels were made ​​at the time, so it was reprinted in aluminum.

Specification speed this trial but reference exhibit, Final Princess Dragon roadster is usually the movie "You Only Live Twice" and convertible type reminds me, coupe-type close to the original (However, the vehicle and to coupe complete problem because there is a fear of intensity occurs, two types are produced) will be equipped with a removable roof, to the so-called style targa top, has been sold as a complete car. The price is 8,000,000 yen convertible, (plus tax for both) 8.8 million yen coupe. Transmission is possible and select either AT MT.

Car-based roadster on the overhaul (not bring), the engine, radiator and piping will be replaced with new offers in the way of the garage, brakes and suspension are fabricated in the original novel. Body-color, but has become a standard Pegasus White, seems able to change the color of your choice, if you wish. Comfortable ride with air conditioner, power steering, car par with the masses of ordinary maintenance expenses. It has become a four-cylinder engine is lonely compared to the original, to be turned fully up to high rpm without any hesitation what instead.

If (human Daseru) people answered that, close to the thing when you ask yourself with? "I wanted a 2000GT," Why, who here are asking their leave, a happy life surely along with the final Princess Dragon roadster will be able to spend. Conversely, it is different people would answer in absolutely glimpses of yourself, your best to get the real thing (or continue to remain a dream warm) to recommend that. Because there is a risk of wasting or mere detour. Some people may feel so special fondness is for the resistance of the "fake", "replica" but not in the 2000GT.

Rather than "fake" Then, capture the essence of what Toyota 2000GT made ​​of 1/1 scale full-size, and model cars, will be how well? Model should be a fun car only this unprecedented. (As a model car but put a value) from riding on the fact he can drive anyway. In addition, you're not asked to be real up there, I hear that are available that can also be produced "replica specification handy" from 2.9 million yen in a different base vehicle.
