The Toyota 2000GT was a sports car produced between 1967 and 1970 in very limited numbers, (approximately three hundred fifty-one) by Toyota in Japan. The only "convertibles" ever built were for this movie. Toyota entered the 2000GT in competition at home, coming third in the 1966 Japanese Grand Prix and winning the Fuji 24-Hour Race in 1967. In addition, the car set several world records for speed and endurance in a seventy-two-hour test. The few surviving examples are very expensive collectibles. It was not designed for westerners, who would be so tall that their heads would touch the roof. The roofless "convertible" version was created for better visibility of the actors and to accommodate Connery's height.
