2000 Toyota Mark Ii, Grande FOUR GX115

a tall, substantial, and premium road presence. While most Mark II models were rear wheel drive, the Grande FOUR is a rare find because it features a factory full time 4WD system. This setup combines the smooth power of an inline six with the kind of all weather grip usually reserved for an SUV. Power comes from the 2.0L 1G-FE BEAMS inline-six, which fires to life and settles into a steady, consistent idle. This engine is known for its smooth power delivery and easy maintenance, and it is paired with a 4-speed automatic transmission that provides smooth, predictable shifts. The factory full time 4WD system ensures power is always sent to all four wheels, using a center differential to manage the distribution. The double wishbone suspension at both ends keeps the car feeling tight and controlled on the road. This is a reliable, straightforward mechanical package built for daily use in any weather. Step inside and the first thing you notice is how much more room there is. The taller roof makes the cabin feel way more spacious than the older, lower Mark IIs. It has all the gear you would expect, including power windows, locks, and mirrors, plus a power driver’s seat and a tilt steering wheel. The wood grain trim on the dash and doors gives it that classic premium feel, and the gray cloth seats have supportive bolstering to keep you in place. Digital climate control handles the cabin temperature with ice cold AC and hot heat, while practical features like front and rear cupholders and a trunk pass through add some everyday utility. The car is finished in White Pearl Crystal Shine, a classic Toyota tricoat that really pops in the sun. It sits on a set of 17-inch Zauber wheels, which fill out the arches better than the stock alloys and give the car a more aggressive stance. Although a mid size executive sedan, it has the look of a big body sedan, trading the thin lines of the 90s for a more rounded and upright design. It shares its DNA with the Toyota Crown and Lexus GS of the era, cars built specifically to trade blows with German luxury rivals. The GX115 Grande Four is a formidable JDM cruiser that pairs a refined Toyota inline-six with a 4WD system built to handle anything the weather throws at it. It is a fantastic entry level JDM car that delivers a big body presence in a package that is reliable enough to actually drive every day. You get the executive style and Toyota’s legendary build quality in a straightforward, naturally aspirated setup that focuses on being smooth and dependable. If you are looking for a unique, all-weather daily that stands out from the crowd, this Mark II is the one. Email info@ and finance is available Walkaround Video
