GarageScout Take
This 1997 RAV4 stands out due to its original ownership and exceptionally low mileage for a 26-year-old SUV. The five-speed manual transmission adds significant appeal to enthusiasts since most RAV4s came with automatics, making this a more engaging and rare specimen.
Strengths
- Original ownership with low mileage
- Five-speed manual transmission rarity
- Well-documented with original window sticker
- Desirable factory All Weather Guard package and alloy wheels
- Equipped with anti-lock brakes and cruise control
