As a final bit of luxury material for this month, here's a car that combines the traditional Japanese luxury flagship with some of the kustom style that I showcased yesterday. I never knew the Toyota Century would look so natural in flat black slammed (with hydraulics) on some white walls with sidepipes. Who said VIP cars need wheels poking out from the fenders to be cool?

Found on Minkara

Shaving it of any Toyota symbols and insignias, I wouldn't be able to tell this apart from a classic american muscle sedan. Good find, Mike.

This is the first time I've ever seen a Century like this. Usually all VIP'd out. This is kind of hot rod american style.

Seen the Toyota Century in a museum a few years back and it already looked pretty bad in original form. Lowered in good old American way makes it look even more badass! :)

Looks fantastic. Give it some suicide doors and it could very well be a Japanese Continental.

The top has been chopped quite a bit.  Shaved handles, locks and mirrors too.
