Whether parked at a classic car show or arriving at a local cars and coffee event, this Toyota is certain to spark conversations thanks to its rarity and nostalgic appeal.

Paired with a 4-speed manual transmission, this combination offers an engaging driving experience that encourages you to enjoy every shift. The manual gearbox puts the driver in complete control, making even casual drives a rewarding experience while showcasing the mechanical simplicity that helped build Toyota's worldwide reputation. Inside, the brown leather interior provides a welcoming cabin with vintage styling that complements the exterior color beautifully. The spacious wagon layout offers room for passengers and cargo alike, making this Corona just as enjoyable for weekend road trips as it is for local cruises. The expansive rear cargo area reflects the practicality that made station wagons such a staple of the era. Helping inspire confidence behind the wheel is a vacuum-boosted braking system, providing added assistance during everyday driving.
