This car is not only a TV star, but a movie star too! It made an appearence in the 1968 Bond movie You Only Live Twice, driven by the Japanese agent Aki. The car in the movie is the rarest of all 2000GT's - it's a very desirable convertible and only one was ever made. The car is now in Toyota's museum.
Ok, ok, I know you're bummed because you wanted to get a car just like Harukas, but there too expensive. But don't give up hope! You can still buy a toy car! Tee-hee! It even opens up! Kawaii ne? But, just so you know, this little toy car is $99.99 US. O.o; a bit too pricey for me...
