This ultra-rare 1997 Toyota Corolla Spacio JDM import is a true time-capsule gem: a compact MPV that’s somehow clocked just 15,000 original miles—that’s barely broken in for a Toyota known for running forever. This right-hand-drive tall wagon, built on the trusty Corolla platform (AE111 series), delivers legendary reliability wrapped in clever, family-focused Japanese engineering that’s hard to find stateside.

What sets this 6-seater apart is its brilliantly versatile interior, designed for maximum flexibility without sacrificing everyday usability:

The front passenger seat swivels 180 degrees to face rearward—perfect for keeping an eye on kids in the middle row or turning road trips into casual conversations.
The middle bench transforms ingeniously: it splits and flips to create two built-in child booster seats for safe, secure junior passengers, or folds flat into a sturdy table surface for snacks, games, or work on the go.
The third-row bench slides forward or back for adjustable legroom, folds down completely for expanded cargo space, or tucks away entirely when you need van-like hauling capacity in a footprint that’s compact enough to park easily (just over 4.1 meters long).
With only 15k miles, this Spacio is essentially in near-new condition—expect pristine upholstery, no wear on the seats or carpets, and all the original plastics and trim looking factory-fresh. It runs on the smooth, efficient 1.6L 4A-FE inline-four (around 110 hp) paired with a reliable 4-speed automatic, delivering excellent fuel economy and bulletproof Toyota durability. Power steering, A/C, power windows, and the expected JDM refinements make it comfortable for daily driving or weekend adventures.

Whether you’re a JDM collector hunting low-mileage unicorns, a family wanting clever seating without the bulk of a modern minivan, or someone who appreciates thoughtful design that still feels modern 28 years later—this Spacio is a standout. It’s not just transportation; it’s a clever, versatile space on wheels that’s aged like fine sake.
