Why it matters
The Aero Cabin was a two-seat Soarer with a power-retractable roof and rear window, offered from April 1989 with production limited to 500 units. It sat on the second-generation Soarer, whose 3.0 litre 7M-GTEU turbo made 230 PS.

02Production & history
Production
Every figure says what it counts.
| What is counted | Figure | Basis | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| Factory package productionlimited edition units (Toyota press release) | 5001,2 | Factory production | Factory reported |
Independent counts (e.g. engine and colour) are never combined into a calculated figure. Surviving examples are never presented as original production.
History
The second-generation Soarer arrived in January 1986 with curved flush glass and the world-first "space vision meter" virtual-image instruments. The Aero Cabin joined in April 1989. The suspension was four-wheel double wishbone with the electronically controlled TEMS and, for the 3.0GT Limited, air suspension.
