Introduction

The UZZ32 "active" Soarer is a variant of the Toyota Soarer, produced for the Japanese domestic market from 1991 to 1996.

Although the UZZ32 model shares many similarities with the other Toyota V8 Soarers (UZZ30 and UZZ31 models), as well as the left-hand drive Lexus SC400 of the era, the UZZ32 contains a number of unique features including an advanced, computer-controlled hydraulic suspension as well as four-wheel steering.

How common are they?

As only 873 UZZ32 Soarers were produced over some six years, these vehicles are now becoming increasingly rare.

Where are they found?

Of the "known" vehicles, the majority are located in Australia and Great Britain, with others appearing in eg New Zealand as well as their native Japan. Since these vehicles were only produced in right-hand-drive form, they are generally not found in North America or Europe, though there are exceptions, including at least one vehicle in Norway.

Many of the 873 vehicles are "yet to be located", while others are known to have been wrecked and/or dismantled. The UZZ32 Registry is used to capture details, including eg locations and specifications of the known vehicles.
