🇯🇵 1998 TOYOTA HILUX SURF SSR-X — JDM IMPORT — $15,000
Offered by Jones JDM Imports LLC
If you’re looking for something different from the typical 4Runner you see every day, here’s a chance to own the real Japanese-market version — a 1998 Toyota Hilux Surf SSR-X, imported directly from Japan.
🔥 ONLY 87,000 KM / APPROXIMATELY 54,000 MILES
The Hilux Surf has a great history in Japan. This is the third-generation Surf, a generation Toyota introduced in Japan in the mid-1990s as a more refined and comfortable SUV while still retaining the rugged 4WD capability the Hilux name is known for.
Under the hood is Toyota’s 2.7L 3RZ-FE DOHC 4-cylinder gasoline engine. It’s naturally aspirated, fuel injected, simple, and doesn’t require premium fuel. This engine was factory rated at approximately 150 PS.
Another nice advantage of the 2.7L is fuel economy. Toyota’s Japanese test-cycle rating for the 2.7L automatic 4WD SSR-X was approximately 8.2 km/L — roughly 19 MPG. Actual mileage will depend on driving conditions, but that’s respectable economy for a true 4WD SUV from this era.
This isn’t just an old SUV — it’s a piece of Japanese Toyota history that you can actually use every day.
