Hasegawa 20617 1/24 Toyota 2000GT ‘Wire Wheel’

Model Kit

The Toyota 2000GT Wire Wheel is a special presentation of Japans most iconic sports car, produced between 1967 and 1970 in very limited numbers. Styled by Yamaha and often called Japans first true supercar, the 2000GT featured a sleek, low-slung body, a 2.0L DOHC straight-six engine, and performance that rivaled European exotics of its day. The Wire Wheel version refers to examples fitted with classic knock-off style wire-spoke wheels, which give the car an elegant, almost European grand touring presence compared to the standard magnesium alloy wheels. Paired with the 2000GTs flowing lines and long bonnet, the wire wheels highlight the cars blend of Japanese craftsmanship and timeless sports car sophistication.
