About Vintage Club by KINTO
Modern cars offer unprecedented comfort and style, but classic cars — or "oldtimers" — provide the joy of hands-on adjustment and a mechanical connection unlike today's vehicles, offering a uniquely nostalgic charm. Guided by KINTO's vision to bring "emotion to every journey," Vintage Club by KINTO creates accessible opportunities to engage with classic cars and share the passion for driving timeless machines.
The project originated within KINTO by car enthusiasts who dreamed of introducing new ways to enjoy classic cars. Collaborations with Toyota car enthusiasts and restoration experts from Shinmei Industry have brought this vision to life.
As classic cars gain growing attention, Vintage Club by KINTO aspires to build a community where enthusiasts can enjoy and share the joy of driving these cherished vehicles.
