LONG FORM DESCRIPTION (SEO)This 2005 Toyota Century (GZG50) represents the most refined evolution of Japan’s flagship chauffeur sedan: a 5.0-liter 1GZ-FE V12 driving the rear wheels through the updated 6-speed automatic adopted with the 2005 facelift. While most GZG50s left the factory with signature wool upholstery, this example features genuine leather — a rare and desirable specification that complements the Century’s handcrafted cabin, wood trim and exceptional sound insulation. The column-mounted shifter preserves an open, lounge-like front layout, and the electric rear window curtain maintains discreet rear-seat comfort (rear door curtains are manual, as per period equipment). On the road, the Century’s double-wishbone suspension and meticulous NVH tuning deliver limousine poise over imperfect surfaces, while the V12 provides effortless, near-silent thrust. As a first-owner Japanese car with the sought-after leather cabin and column-shift 6AT, this GZG50 is ideal for collectors and connoisseurs seeking authentic Japanese luxury with timeless engineering, and for buyers who value a serene grand-touring experience combined with effortless daily usability. Toprank Europe can arrange delivery fully registered in France or a direct-from-Japan purchase, depending on your project.
