Background

The Toyota Aristo was the JDM twin of the Lexus GS300, sitting between the Altezza/IS and the flagship Celsior/LS400. Unlike the U.S. GS300, this Aristo V300 came equipped from the factory with the 2JZ-GTE Twin Turbo engine, making it a true sleeper sedan.

The car comes with a clean CarVX history report (similar to Carfax, but Japan-based) confirming mileage and condition.
