Your typical car buyer understands that Japanese cars have developed quite the reputation for building quality cars with low maintenance, good fuel economy, and high resale values. However, some buyers may not realize that several Japanese automakers have built some of the coolest cars ever.

To help get everyone acquainted with the awesome Japanese cars over the years, we tossed together this list of our 10 favorite Japanese cars.

Toyota 2000GT

The Toyota 2000GT wasn’t overly fast or powerful, but it was one of the original Japanese sports cars. Plus, for its era, it was damn sexy. Its long hood and curvy body looked almost Jaguar-like, and its low curb weight and responsive chassis made it a blast to drive.

It’s no wonder pristine examples of this classic Japanese sports car rake in more than $1 million. Also aiding in its high price tag is the fact that Toyota built only 351 units between 1967 and 1970.
