{{quotation|Rare, beautiful, and startlingly expensive, the 2000GT has all the attributes of a European supercar, but it’s not European at all. It’s a common myth that Count Albrecht von Goertz penned the coupe, it was actually Toyota designer Satoru Nozaki who created the 2000GT’s sharply creased lines—low and sporting, with classic long-hood/short-deck proportions. But if you’ve heard that Yamaha was involved in building the 2000GT, that’s not a myth. Starting with this car, Yamaha established a lasting relationship with Toyota handling engineering work for their high-performance engines. Yamaha designed the 2000GT’s 2-liter inline six’s DOHC head and carried out production of the car, all by hand, on a very limited scale. The beautiful woodwork on the dashboard is a prime example of the quality of construction, drawing on Yamaha’s experience crafting fine pianos. The performance potential of the engine was unleashed by none other than Carroll Shelby. It also gained some fame as James Bonds’ ride in the film “You Only Live Twice,” as a convertible (although Toyota never offered one from the factory). With very few ever built (less than 400), they’re still expensive, with even the shoddiest examples commanding six figure prices. If you think that’s too high a price to pay, you clearly haven’t heard the sound of that lusty six at full tilt—worth the price of admission by itself.|Official description|<ref>{{ref|https://www.forzamotorsport.net/en-us/games/fh2/cars/toyota|Forza Horizon 2 - Cars|forzamotorsport.net|12-12-2018}}</ref>}}

It is unlockable as a Hard-to-Find car.

Synopsis

The Toyota 2000GT (codenamed MF10) is a grand tourer co-developed by Yamaha as Toyota's halo car. A total of 337 units were produced from 1967 to 1970.[2]

The 2000GT dates back to the Nissan A550X, a prototype developed by Yamaha for Nissan to replace the Datsun 2000 Roadster with a coupé. Although Nissan backed out of the project, Yamaha built a functioning prototype in September 1964, and offered it to Toyota instead. Toyota accepted the offer and began co-development in December 1964.

Since the car's introduction, Yamaha was involved in many future Toyota cars such as the Toyota Sprinter Trueno GT Apex, Toyota Supra RZ and Lexus LFA.

Platform

The exterior design is characterized by a low-slung body with a "double bubble" top and pop-up headlights. Under the body is an X-shaped backbone chassis that longitudinally comprise the engine at the front and differential at the rear.

To ensure ride quality and enable quick cornering, the 2000GT is fitted with unequal-length double-wishbone suspension and coil springs on both ends. It also features power-assisted four-wheel disc brakes and a dashboard-mounted handbrake.

Drivetrain

The 2000GT is driven by a five-speed manual powered by a triple-carbureted "Toyota 3M" engine that is designed with an aluminum hemispheral cylinder head by Yamaha and double overhead camshaft valvetrain.[3]

Limited to a two liter capacity, the engine delivers 150 hp (112 kW) and 130 ft·lb (176 N·m) of torque, putting it on par with contemporary Japanese sports cars like the Nissan Fairlady Z 432.
