    A one-year return to Japan for the 30th anniversary

    For the 70 Series' 30th anniversary, a one-year-only resale in Japan was decided. Koyari had heard many people say it had to be this car, and he wanted to create a chance to buy one normally, even if only for a limited time. Its content stayed as the specification used overseas, and about the only additions for Japan were reflectors on the rear bumper and an auxiliary mirror on the left fender.
