I used to spot one of these pottering around the Central coast in its original two tone. A very formal, sendible looking Japanese luxury sedan of the mid-1980s - nowadays it looks awkwardly lego but somehow cool at the same time.

This one popped up on Gumtree Australia, located in Adelaide, mid 2022 and asking just $6,000. The Japanese were making some great luxury cars at this time, and this thing is a testament to their longevity and durability. It certainly looks really well looked after.
