Overview of the Toyota Land Cruiser ZX
This 2026 Toyota Land Cruiser ZX (3DA-FJA300W) is a near new right hand drive example offered at USS Kyushu, lot 53116, on 17 October 2026. It is finished in black, colour code 202, over a beige interior, and powered by the 3,300 cc twin turbo diesel with a floor shifted automatic and 4WD. The odometer reads just 8 km, approximately 5 miles, and the sheet records first registration as September 2026 (Reiwa 8). It carries an overall grade of 6 with interior grade A.
The ZX is the top specification of the 300 Series, and this one adds a long list of manufacturer options plus a Modellista aero set. For a buyer who wants a Land Cruiser in effectively delivery condition, straight from the Japanese domestic market, it is an unusual find.
The Drive Review
The 300 Series moved the Land Cruiser onto Toyota's TNGA GA-F platform, and the result is a large body on ladder frame underpinnings that is quieter and more composed than the 200 Series it replaced. The 3.3 litre V6 twin turbo diesel is the engine to know in this car. It delivers its torque low in the rev range, so the Land Cruiser pulls strongly without fuss, and it works with a ten speed automatic that keeps the engine relaxed at motorway speeds. This is not a sports SUV, and it does not try to be one.
The character is calm and unburstable. Steering is light and the ride is well controlled for a vehicle of this size and height, while the full time 4WD system and the electric rear differential lock fitted here keep real off road ability in reserve. The PVM multi terrain monitor helps when the terrain gets tight. Against a modern luxury SUV, the Land Cruiser feels more mechanical and more purposeful, with a reputation for durability that few rivals can match.

The equipment box on the sheet could not be read with confidence, so nothing further is confirmed from it.
Japanese Auction Report Translation
The sheet gives the section as Prime RV and D corner, lot 53116, overall grade 6 and interior grade A. It records the Toyota Land Cruiser, code 3DA-FJA300W, five doors, grade ZX, 3300 cc, 4WD, floor automatic, automatic air conditioning, right hand drive and five seats. The colour is black with no colour change written, colour code 202, and the interior is beige. Fuel is diesel. First registration is Reiwa 8, September, and the shaken runs to 24 September Reiwa 11. The odometer shows 8 km. The registration plate reads Sasebo 333 tsu 1211.
The new car service book with warranty card is marked as present. The sales points and points to note are listed above under equipment. The inspector's report contains a single comment: light scratches on the exterior. Spare key and owner manual are not confirmed on the sheet, though two fobs are visible in the photographs. A line reading first preference Prime RV and D is partly cut off at the bottom of the image, and any further notes below it cannot be read.
Damage Diagram and Body Condition
The diagram carries one marking: the letter A written below the rear bumper. A means a scratch, though no size number accompanies it, so it is not certain whether it is a deliberate scratch code or part of the printed form. It fits the inspector's remark about light scratches on the exterior. There are no dents, repair marks, replaced panels, rust or corrosion recorded.
The photographs show glossy black paintwork, the Modellista bumpers and spoiler, black roof rails, running boards and alloy wheels, with no obvious marks visible at this resolution. Overall this is delivery condition, close to collector grade for a current model, with only a light scratch at the rear to inspect.
Interior Condition
Interior grade A is the top rating. The photographs show a beige perforated seat trim with factory plastic still covering parts of the front seats, a wood effect centre console, a black steering wheel with switchgear and a digital instrument cluster. The cluster shows 8 km on the trip display and 137 km of fuel range. A rear warning symbol is lit on the display, which the sheet does not explain, so it is not confirmed. No wear, smoke or odour is recorded.
Japanese Auction Grades
Auction grades run from 6 at the top end down to R for repaired cars. A grade 6 is reserved for cars of near new condition, which matches an 8 km vehicle. Interior grade A is the best interior rating, indicating clean, unworn trim.
Model History
The Land Cruiser dates back to 1951 and has been Toyota's flagship go anywhere vehicle ever since. The 300 Series arrived in 2021 as the successor to the 200 Series, with a lighter structure, a new V6 petrol and the 3.3 litre diesel offered here. Japanese models carry the FJA300W code for the diesel, and the ZX sits at the top of the range.
Why This Model Has Become Collectible
The 300 Series has built a reputation as one of the most wanted vehicles in the world. Demand has long exceeded supply in the home market, with extended waiting lists, and that makes a nearly new Japanese example hard to source. The Land Cruiser's reputation for durability, off road ability and strong resale across many markets adds to its appeal. This is a current production vehicle rather than a classic, so we make no claim about future values.
What To Look For When Buying This Model
The 3.3 litre diesel is a modern emissions equipped engine, so confirm that the diesel particulate filter and fuel quality requirements in your country are workable before bidding, since low sulphur fuel matters for this engine family. At 8 km the car is effectively unused, so the first service and a check of the ten speed automatic's shifting on the road are sensible. Inspect the rear bumper for the scratch recorded by the inspector, and look closely at the Modellista aero parts, which are dealer fitted accessories that may affect clearance off road. Right hand drive suits left traffic markets, so check import rules for your country.
Why Import This Car From Japan
Japanese auction stock is documented and graded, and cars like this arrive with low mileage and a clear service book. Specifications such as the rear differential lock and the Modellista parts are often hard to find outside Japan.

Auction Caution
Auction cars are inspected before sale but are still vehicles being sold through an auction. The auction sheet is an independent condition guide, not a mechanical warranty. The inspector recorded light scratches on the exterior, and the A mark below the rear bumper is uncertain, so inspect the rear bumper on arrival. The rear warning symbol on the dash is not explained on the sheet. Even a near new car should be serviced and checked after purchase.
