Wow! Once I had a same car 1974 GSS in same color Jolly White and dark blue stripe. Still shifter knob and GSS emblem are in my drawer(^-^). Thank you !
you say this car was a highlight of the show, I say it's a highlight of your site, what a beauty and another car I first learnt about from Wasabi, hope you find another one day and hopefully you'll have a bit more room to stand back and get good views from all sides
They do. I've been interested in them for a long time. Except perhaps for about a 8 year period when I moved to Japan and forgot about them. Also though, I'm just trying to make my vids for conversational & relateable. Gotta ways to go. :/
reading your comment on the video, I have to agree. The whole Toyopet thing is a real head scratcher. Im on the fence about it but ive considered the idea of searching out a "Toyopet" badge to replace my "toyota" on my MX22 coupe just to throw even more people off. Every time I drive it, without fail I get asked what it is. Because NOBODY KNOWS.
I was also surprised to see the Toyopet badge. I still don't really get that Toyota has several branded dealers. They are all Toyota to me. Nissan too. You can buy a Nissan from Prince or you can buy a Nissan from Nissan.... I don't get it.
I doubt it. I just show cars I see around Japan. Buying/selling is of no interest to me. Also, I show videos of cars that other people own. If a car is for sale, I wouldn't know
Yep, I was stunned to learn of this sport variant. Side note. This video is so old and crappy. I'm kinda embarrassed. I did a much cooler video recently of a few more GSS's I found ua-cam.com/video/Dk5WUg1EzXc/v-deo.html
Oh, sh*t! Sorry, I got your email but then it slipped my mind. How's this for funny. That car doesn't live there. It looks like they were just using the parking space until whoever did live there moved in! I assume they were family or friend... If I see it again, I'll try to sneak a peek at the vin.
wow i find this car appealing although i am absolutely clueless about it... also at a loss with the "toyopet" designation. i thought that was long gone before the 70's. (daniel! check your email! i need to you to raid your neighbor's mustang for a VIN ^_^ )
I gotta say, you finally got me. I never knew there was a GSS model of the Mark II.

４０年前に乗ってました 色も白で前期型 新婚旅行で北海道にフェリーで行きました 懐かしいですね 今見てもサイドのストライプがカッコいいです 標準でノンスリ入ってたんですよ。俺らのは壊れて TRDの4ピニ入れました。
Never seen this one before, and I LOVE it! :D
Yeah, she's a beauty. :)
gasp!! rare baby, rare !! and so perfect.
Its so rare and perfect but I can't help but to think a ITB 1UZ V8 would be right at home in this car.
great looking car, looks like a mini muscle car :)
Four door was crap when growing up
But now I want one lol
Hahaha! I totally get it though.
Such a beautiful car.
I often see it at events throughout the year. Still super clean.
It's a sweet car no matter what the badge on it says...
Wow that is super nice!!
No probs bro if you need any info on any model let me know...bless
I like the term. It certainly was their equivalent.
thank you daniel!
Thanks for the info. i'm still familiarizing myself with the J-cars and engines. :)
So rad. I’ve got a 72 here in the states. Non gss. Don’t even think that was an option in the US
Thanks, Alexander

What it is? I'\ tried googling, got nothing. :/
wow... You need one of these, Dan! XD
Is this available for sale?
I doubt it. I just show cars I see around Japan. Buying/selling is of no interest to me. Also, I show videos of cars that other people own. If a car is for sale, I wouldn't know
黒のＧＳＳのシャコタンはカッコよかった。
I guess I got me too. I'd never heard of GSS. :/
Mark II GSS ftw
Yep, I was stunned to learn of this sport variant. Side note. This video is so old and crappy. I'm kinda embarrassed. I did a much cooler video recently of a few more GSS's I found ua-cam.com/video/Dk5WUg1EzXc/v-deo.html
What does GSS stand for?
This car was very great
Thank you. Yes, a very stylish car
I heard a phrase a while back. I think people were calling them two thirds muscle cars... Something like that.
Oh, how I miss my MX-11! :(...
what is the price of this car?
+Average THIS car? Don't know. I doubt it's even for sale.
Wow so nice
Thank you
このボディーカラーのマーク2やセリカ好きです。
かっこいいですね。
god sent video
You like? I'm sure this is a much better video on the Corona Mark II GSS: ua-cam.com/video/Dk5WUg1EzXc/v-deo.html
2代目マーク2のGSSですが前が後期型で後ろが前期型のようになってますね❗おそらくは前期型の車両がベースでしょう‼️エンジンルームも排ガス規制装置が付いていない仕様ですから！綺麗で好感の持てる車ですから大事にして欲しいです❗
という事はかなり大変なレストアですね、後期モデルは排気ガス規制準備の関係でエンジンルームが拡大されているのでパネル取付も容易ではなかったはずです。
Damn, niiiiice!!!
ありがとう！
Perfection
Waooooo... that is beautiful...
Yesh, the two door hardtops of this generation Corona Mk II are stunning vehicles
How rare is this!!!!!!!
Lol. Pretty rare. I've seen just two.
My bad, MX-13. :P

Haha, nice! Yes, it is a beautiful car. :)
かっこいい！はじめて見ました、この車。wasabicarsさんも、cool !
Beautiful coupe.witnessed those cars in my teens with mostly 18Rs.
かっこいい
Me three!
1996 rang and asked for its goatee back...
GSS = 18R-G fire :)
I need to buy a Toyota corrona mark ii Engine and some spare parts.
wow i find this car appealing although i am absolutely clueless about it... also at a loss with the "toyopet" designation. i thought that was long gone before the 70's.
(daniel! check your email! i need to you to raid your neighbor's mustang for a VIN ^_^ )
ハハ！冗談でしょう。この車がcoolしかない。
haha, you can see why.
Japanese muscle car :)
日本語うまいな
まだ下手です。
不謹慎
