The Mark II name has been used by Toyota for several decades and was originally used as part of the Toyota Corona Mark II name.
Mark II was introduced to make the car stand out from the main Toyota Corona platform. Once the platform was split in the 1970s, the car became known simply as the Mark II.
In the late 1970s, the Mark II became the basis for the Toyota Cresta and Toyota Chaser, two sedans that differed from the Mark II only in interior and exterior design options.
Some generations of the Mark II were exported in left-hand drive under the Toyota Cressida brand, which became the company's flagship in the US market for a period before the introduction of the Toyota Avalon, a sedan specially designed for the North American market.
In total, within the framework of this model, 10 generations were presented,
Consider the most memorable models:
Toyota Mark II (08.1988 - 08.1992) 80 body
4-door sedan, equipped with a standard 2-liter or 2.5-liter engine. The Mark II was the main 4-door car in the Hard Top class. Cars with so many doors were used primarily for business use. The modest design did not create much demand for this model. Perhaps the advantage of this car was a stronger body reinforcement than other 4-door hardtops, and wider headrests in the rear seats. 
These models were equipped with about 6 types of engines from a modest 1.8
up to 3 liter M and 2.5 JZ series engines, there were also 2 types of diesel engines, more than 6 types of gearboxes, both mechanical and automatic.
Toyota Mark II (10.1992 - 08.1996)90 body
The beginning of the production of Mark II (as well as Chaser and Cresta) in the bodies of the 90th series was 1992. If we talk about Mark II, then this is his seventh generation. Thanks to the bubble economy, the quality of Japanese cars has become better, this was reflected in the Mark II: the quality of this generation of the model is higher than that of the previous one. To express this difference, the most important thing to mention is that all the changes that took place in those years became basic. In the TOURER modification models, special attention was paid to the quality of movement. It was planned that alloy wheels on cars of this modification would distinguish it from cars of other versions. The Mark II TOURER V with a manual transmission is equipped with a limited slip differential. As for engines, the TOURER V has a 2.5-liter engine with 280 “horses” (in-line, DOHC, 2 turbines), the TOURER S has an in-line 2.5-liter engine with 180 hp. It is said that the aim of developing this model was to achieve the characteristics of the BMW M5.
Like the 80 series, this model also had about 6 types of engines
# 4S-FE - 1.8 l. 4 cylinders, 120 hp
# 1G-FE - 2.0 l. 6 cylinders, 140 hp
# 1JZ-GE - 2.5 l. 6 cylinders, 180 hp
# 2JZ-GE - 3.0 l. 6 cylinders, 220 hp
# 1JZ-GTE - 2.5 liters. 6 cylinders, turbocharged, 280 hp
# 2L-TE - 2.4 l. diesel, 4 cylinders, turbocharged, 97 hp
This generation of Mark II can be called outstanding in terms of the number of cars sold, as well as the next generation, the so-called. 8
Toyota Mark II (09.1996 - 09.2000) 100 series body
The already peaked 90-series Mark II was succeeded by the more powerful "hundredth" Mark II, which was released in 1996. At the same time, the bodies of the Chaser and Cresta models also changed. And, despite the identity of some components and almost the same body elements of these three cars, you can consider signs that allow you to break these cars into separate groups. Modification TOURER, as before, has a sports package. On the most powerful variety - TOURER V - an in-line turbine engine with a capacity of 280 hp is installed. (6DOHC, VVT-i). Suspension, wheels, LSD (Limited Slip Differential, i.e. limited slip differential) mounted on a car with a 5-speed "mechanics" - all this makes the movement of the Mark II similar to the movement of a sports car. In addition, the TOURER modification is characterized by a large exhaust pipe and special front optics. In the cabin, I want to highlight the leather steering wheel. In 1998, the model underwent restyling. Since September 1996, VVT-i variable valve timing technology has been used in gasoline engines, and a cylinder head upgraded by YAMAHA specialists has been used on the 2-liter 1G-FE. this technology is called dual BEAMS. 
less was installed on this model, 5 types of internal combustion engines, 1 of which was diesel.
Mark II Wagon Qualis (04.1997 - 01.2002)
The Toyota Mark II Wagon Qualis, which appeared in 1997, is a modified continuation of the Toyota Mark II Wagon series, which entered the market back in 1984. The slightly angular classic style of this station wagon has attracted wide interest among young car enthusiasts. However, we cannot say that the Toyota Mark II Wagon Qualis is a completely new vehicle in the Toyota Mark II Wagon family. The front of the car is almost the same as that of the Toyota Mark II, but the bodywork resembles the silhouette of the Toyota Camry Gracia. The Toyota Mark II Wagon Qualis is a front-wheel drive L-class station wagon. In other words, the car can be attributed to high-class cars.
Since the car was not originally designed as a sports car, disputes about the need to use front-wheel drive or rear-wheel drive as the main one for the Toyota Mark II Wagon Qualis are completely inappropriate.
The basic silhouette of the car is reminiscent of the Toyota Camry Gracia, but the spaciousness of the cabin and the excellent performance of the luggage compartment are in many ways superior to this model. The design of the front and rear of the car is original, it is noticeable luxury, so inherent in the cars of the Mark II series.
The main powertrains for the Toyota Mark II Wagon Qualis are similar to the Toyota Camry Gracia 2.2-liter 4-cylinder in-line engine and 2.5-liter 6-cylinder V-twin engine. A 3-liter 6-cylinder V-engine was added to their range. With the addition of Electronic Suspension Management System (TEMS) to the Toyota Mark II Wagon Qualis, the vehicle's handling and ride quality have been further improved. 
Toyota Mark II (10.2000 - 11.2004)110 body
The 110th body of the Toyota Mark II, released in 2000, is close to the sports equipment. This is confirmed by the increased vehicle height by 60 mm. All models have GRANDE modification; the previously existing TOURER modification became known as GRANDE iR (TOURER S became GRANDE iR-S). The most powerful turbo engine (6DOHC, 280ps/38.5kg*m) fitted to the iR-V hasn't changed at all. The changes did not affect the transmission either - it is still a 5-speed manual transmission or 4-speed automatic transmission, and a double independent suspension with stabilizers. Thanks to the new body structure, it is safe to say that the driving performance of the car has improved. As additional options for this car, you can name an aerodynamic body kit, 17-inch alloy wheels, a radiator grill, front optics in darker tones, etc. All this once again proves that the Mark II belongs to sports class sedans.
In 2002, the model has undergone changes (115th body). New headlights, grille and bumper at the front, while at the rear there is a chrome trunk release handle and a new lamp design. 
Toyota Mark II Wagon Blit (01.2002 - 05.2007)
In the Toyota Mark II Wagon Blit, the idea of creating an L-class family station wagon was realized. The market at that time was flooded with models with three rows of seats, and the Toyota Mark II Wagon Blit entered the market under the banner of a new concept.
The Mark II Wagon Blit is a premium rear wheel drive sports wagon. The appearance of the car emphasizes its sportiness. The engine cover, side skirts, the car's prominent slightly curved headlights and interior design leave a strong impression. The Mark II Wagon Blit, with the exception of the inexpensive J trim, is equipped with special rear shock absorbers. The car is equipped with 6-cylinder engines with a DOHC gas distribution type, with direct fuel injection, with a volume of 2 and 2.5 liters, as well as 2.5-liter turbo engines.
Toyota Mark X (11.2004 - 09.2009) 120 body
As you know, the Mark II family of cars came to a point in its development, when the tenth generation should have been born. It was decided to commemorate this event to make a change in the name and replace the serial number II with the number X (Latin numerals). This new model has taken its place in the above-average price category. It is made on a platform common with the Toyota Crown model, equipped with a six-cylinder V-engine with a displacement of 3 or 2.5 liters. The engines are paired with a 6-speed Super ECT transmission with a manual shift mode. Given the fact that the current model was released in the development of the Mark II lineup, it turns out that this is the first time that Toyota has developed a model of this class with a 6-cylinder V-engine. And yet, apparently, it was decided not to be limited to the formal replacement of the “two” with the “ten”, but to go further and choose an unprecedented appearance for the new car. To be convinced of the veracity of such a statement, you just need to look at the front of the car, at the place where a relief line in the form of the letter V stretches right from under the bumper and up to the hood. Then you need to look at the 3-section headlights, then go around the car at the rear to reveal the exhaust pipe located under the massive rear bumper. All this is worth seeing. And then sit in the interior, filled with leather, metal and wood elements, in particular, evaluate the middle console of the front panel. And only then you will understand what it is, the quality of the finish, as Toyota designers understand it! The "S package" sports car is equipped with 18-inch aluminum wheels and sports-type brakes, a specially tuned suspension, aerodynamic body parts and other "amenities". It is worth noting that the all-wheel drive system (4WD) is installed only on a modification with a 2.5-liter engine and a 5-speed automatic transmission.
And in conclusion, I would like to introduce you to the 11th generation in a row, the release of which began at the end of 2009 -
Mark X in 130 body
In the autumn of 2009, the second generation of the stylish and comfortable Mark X sedan was presented. The concept of the model is based on a complex idea of dynamism, relevance and impeccability down to the smallest detail. Significantly improved overall handling, changes were made to the chassis design, which added to the car's sporty dynamics. The model is equipped with a V6 DOHC engine with a working volume of 2.5 liters or 3.5 liters. Fuel consumption has become more efficient. So, the rear-wheel drive version of the model with a 2.5-liter engine in 10-15 mode consumes 7.7 liters per 100 km, and with a 3.5-liter engine - 9.8 liters per 100 km. The model is equipped with a 6-speed automatic transmission. Three modifications are available, differing in the installed equipment: "standard", "sports" and "premium".

Owner reviews Toyota Mark II
Toyota Mark II, 1994
I had a Toyota Mark II by accident, my father bought it and gave it to me. From the first day I fell in love with this car, it is surprisingly soft, you can let go of the steering wheel and drive calmly even at the entrance / exit from the bridge. I am young, so rear-wheel drive made me very happy, the car went sideways even on asphalt. I had 18 castings, and bumps were slightly felt on it, but the steering wheel did not beat. Having switched to winter tires with 15 rims in the fall, I realized that this is just not a car, but a hot tub, Toyota Mark II floats smoothly along the road, if you don’t play around with gas, then it confidently holds the road, thanks to its mass. I liked this car absolutely everything. In the cabin I had velor. My friends and I rode in the evenings, the music was not regular, very cool. How much noise it created, I quietly rolled through the streets with open windows. If you close the windows, then absolutely nothing is heard what is happening outside the cabin, the speed in the car is not felt, it happened, you think 80/90, and there are already 140. In the summer, I really like it when the window is down, there is no arch above the door, it looks very Great. Used Toyota Mark II for about 3 months, just changed the spark plugs. In general, the car is just fire. No creaks, no noise and only pleases.
Advantages : comfort. Smooth running. Reliability.
Flaws : These cars are no longer produced.
Roman, Khabarovsk
Toyota Mark II, 1996
The car was ordered in Japan. It took a week to pick it up, but delivery took about a month. Comfort in Toyota Mark II is on top. Landing, seats, driver's seat - everything is very comfortable, has a wide variety of adjustments. As for visibility, it's just great. The interior of the Toyota Mark II looks luxurious, made in black and trimmed with expensive materials. The brown interior cannot be compared with such rare splendor. I don’t want to offend anyone, but for such a car, such an interior looks, it seemed to me, a little poor. So the interior of my "Mark" is trimmed with high-quality velor and good artificial leather. What upset me was the scratches on the glass of the sensors. This is a common thing for Toyota, even a rag leaves scratches on these glasses. Somehow this could be fixed. The steering wheel covers half of the dashboard, although the steering wheel is comfortable. What I was pleased with was the heated mirrors. And also an ionizer and xenon adjustable. Very simple and easy to use CD changer. You insert six discs in turn into one hole, that's all. The air conditioner settings are shown on the display. I was pleasantly surprised by some new features, although I had to suffer to figure out what was what in these hieroglyphs. "Shumka" in Toyota Mark II is just great, especially when compared with the "Corolla", which I drove before. And in the back of the cabin is much more spacious. Consumes Toyota Mark II about 11-12 liters of fuel. Although depending on how you drive and what road. If the road surface was better and the speed on the highway was 110-120, then I think it would be limited to 10 liters. But I can’t force myself to drive at a speed of 110 km / h with an engine of 200 “horses”.
Advantages : the Japanese made the body solid, good visibility and excellent interior.
Flaws : you get dirty when you close the trunk.
Rostislav, Irkutsk
Toyota Mark II, 1996
Externally, Toyota Mark II liked its square shape. For his age, in my opinion, the car looks modern, not lost in the crowd. High ground clearance and all-wheel drive allow you to climb into such jungle, which not every SUV or jeep will climb into. The wife, when she saw the purchase, was in seventh heaven with happiness. Inside the Toyota Mark II, the finish is pleasing to the eye. But I had nothing to compare, but in my opinion everything is in its place, there is nothing superfluous. There is really a lot of space in the cabin. The climate is doing its job well. Pleased and heated wipers, winter really helps. In general, a full power package, with the exception of heating, everything is there. The engine runs like clockwork, but at the same time it loves oil very much (mileage at the time of purchase is 297,000 km) and I am more than sure that they twisted such a skin. The previous owner said that he didn’t climb under the hood at all, he only changed the oil, so everything costs native. The plans closer to winter to change the engine to a contract. But with all this, the Toyota Mark II accelerates very well, of course, it’s not so cheerful from a standstill (after all, the mass is 1600 kg) makes itself felt, but if, say, you drive 80 kilometers and sharply press the pedal to the floor, it takes your breath away . A friend has a VW B5 1.8T, he says even he doesn’t get blown up like that. In general, I will say that JZ is a good engine. Morozov did not find much, so I can not say about the operation in the winter. Regarding fuel consumption, I can say the following: in the summer I drive slowly (there is nowhere to rush in Moscow constant traffic jams), smoothly accelerating 60-80 km / h, the consumption is 13-14 liters (I alternate between 95th and 98th gasoline) plus it's all the same four-wheel drive. Highway: from 8 to 10 liters, speed from 100 to 140 km/h. In winter, with warm-ups, you can safely add 5 liters, and so I can say who drives how.
Advantages : soft chassis. Powerful motor. Comfortable salon.
Flaws : no special.

Toyota Mark II is a legendary and beloved car by the entire global automotive community. On its account, the model has more than 30 years of production and a whole era that created the cult of the Japanese car.
Story
"Mark" The first generation of the model was born in 1968. From the first to the fifth model "Marks" were especially popular in their country. Starting from the seventh generation, the Toyota Mark II received a Tourer V version with a powerful turbocharged engine, and exports to other countries began. From that moment on, the car gradually began to become megapopular around the world. The ninth generation is today the last car produced under the name "Mark-2". 110 body has greatly changed the car, compared with previous versions. The car was produced between 2000 and 2004. After that, the ninth generation was replaced by the Mark X. The Toyota Mark-2 110 body was the last car in the series and the closure of an entire era of the Japanese automotive industry. For 4 years of release, "Mark" survived restyling once.
Description Mark 2
Toyota Mark II is a business class car, mainly for the domestic Japanese market. It was produced from 1968 to 2004, in which Toyota Mark X came to replace it. Despite the years that have passed since the end of its production, the car is still popular today, largely due to the powerful, legendary 1JZ-GTE engines, along with it went motors and quieter, working volume from 1.8 to 3 liters. The whole truth about all these Mark 2 engines has been collected and is waiting for your attention, malfunctions and repairs, proper tuning, oil and much more.
Exterior
The final generation Mark II was built on a new platform that the model shared with the Verossa. The wheelbase, compared with the previous generation, has grown by 50 mm (2780 mm), the width (by 5 mm to 1760 mm) and height (by 60 mm, to 1460 mm) of the body have also been increased, while its length has decreased by 25 mm (up to 4735 mm).
The car received an updated radiator grille stretched U-shaped with six "ribs" dividing it in half in a horizontal plane.
The branded "Markov" nameplate of the model is installed on the grille, while on the stern - "Toyota". The headlights of the car were noticeably rounded (in the previous generation they were rectangular, elongated). The front bumper has a wide central section of the air intake, horizontally blocked by a stylistic “blade”. The side niches, where the fog lights were located, had a narrow wedge-shaped shape.
The manufacturer carefully worked out the aerodynamics of the model, which was improved by a more streamlined shape of the roof and side body panels. Rear view from the driver's seat is worsened by the enlarged rear pillars, but the situation is saved by wide side mirrors. The rear bumper of the model is solid, massive. The rear lights are triangular in shape, arranged vertically. 
Interior
The company responsibly approached the release of the final generation of one of its most successful models. So, all vehicle configurations received new, high-quality materials for seat upholstery and interior trim. The interior itself, thanks to the increased width and height, has become more spacious than the previous generation.
The front seats received wide seats and backs, limited by a small lateral support. And the rear sofa has found a new seat with stylistically distinguished two seats and a backrest littered back.
The instrument panel of the Mark II is rectangular, with rounded edges, it has a large speedometer and tachometer, to which small gauges of fuel remaining in the tank and coolant temperature are “stuck”.
The center console is V-shaped, it houses the multimedia system screen, radio and climate system controls. The steering wheel of the model is three-spoke, with an average thickness of the rim. 
Comfort
Rear passengers will feel like VIPs. Two full seats provide all the comforts for a pleasant trip. The functionality of the rear seats is not much less than for the front. In expensive trim levels, additional monitors are offered in the headrests of the front seats. In addition, the fifth passenger in this car is not considered deprived, as is customary in luxury business classes. The third passenger in the back row can be a fairly large person, while he will hardly embarrass the rest. "Mark-2" is one of the most spacious sedans. It remains so to this day. The same can be said about the trunk.
Specifications
In the ninth generation, manufacturers completely abandoned the use of diesel engines. The developers have changed the high pressure fuel supply system. Always for 4 years of production, the car was produced in 6 different trim levels. Two two-liter 1JZ-FSE engines with a capacity of 160 horses each. One of the options was equipped with permanent all-wheel drive. The following 3 configurations offer a 2.5 liter engine. Front-wheel drive and all-wheel drive versions produced 200 horsepower each. The turbocharged engine squeezed as much as 250.
The most powerful version is 3 liters and 220 horsepower. The maximum speed of such a car is 210 km / h, it is equipped with an automatic gearbox and “eats” as much as 15 liters per 100 km. For comparison, weaker versions fit into 10 liters. Economic "Mark-2" can not be called.
Mark II in the X110 body was equipped only with 2.0 (160 hp) and 2.5 liter gasoline engines (it had three power modifications - atmospheric 196 hp, direct injection - 200 hp, and turbocharged - 280 hp .With.). The power plants were paired with a 5-speed "mechanics" and a 4-speed "automatic". Drive - rear / full.

Options
For nine generations, the manufacturer has experimented with the motor line. He constantly increased it and chose larger engines. In the last, ninth, generation, Japanese engineers decided to stop at 2; 2.5 and 3 liter units.
The 2.5-liter version had three different power modifications.
The drive is traditionally rear-wheel drive, but all-wheel drive was optionally offered. Transmission: either 5MKPP or 4-speed automatic.
The cost of Mark II in 110 body
The purchase of this car, even at one time, was a rather difficult task, since Mark-2 110 was not officially supplied to the Russian market. The price of used cars today varies greatly. In poor condition, a car can be purchased for 150-200 thousand rubles. But usually the owners of such rare and legendary Japanese cars take care of their cars, so the cost of a normal Mark-2 (110 body) starts from 400 thousand.
You can also find options and more expensive, up to 1 million rubles or more. It all depends on the amount of money invested in the car by the previous owner. But even now, the acquisition of "Mark" is a profitable investment. If you choose an option in a good configuration and in an acceptable condition, then the car will last a very long time to the new owner. After all, the old Japanese are made to last and are ready to leave for more than 20-25 years with minimal investment in repairs. 
The Mark II is a beloved car by all. For some, it is associated with drifting or street racing, for others - with comfort and business class. The beauty of this model is that it is versatile. Toyota once created a legend whose authority is still unshakable. Not only the ninth generation is popular, but also the previous three. Of course, it is extremely difficult to find the first versions of the Mark, but for true lovers of Japanese cars, the ninth generation is significant, because the era of the second Mark ended on it. The Mark X follower has not found such popular love and fame, although it is the same quality car.
In 1968, Toyota introduced the new Corona Mark II, which was intended not only for the local market, but also for export to other countries. This car was to some extent rid Toyota of the image of a manufacturer of cheap and compact cars, which was exactly the image that the brand had in the USA at that time. The rear-wheel drive Toyota Corona Mark II had sedan, coupe, wagon and pickup versions. Gasoline engines with a volume of 1.5 to 2.0 liters were installed on the car.
2nd generation (X10/X20), 1972
The second generation of the model, produced from 1972 to 1976, was created on a new platform. Toyota Corona Mark II was now equipped not only with four-cylinder engines 1.7, 1.8 and 2.0, but also in-line “sixes” with a volume of 2.0, 2.3 and 2.6 liters, including those with fuel injection. Gearboxes - mechanical, four- and five-speed or three-speed "automatic".
3rd generation (X30/X40), 1976
The export version of the 1976 model car was renamed "", and in 1977 a more sporty modification of the car appeared, which became a separate model. The car was still offered with sedan, station wagon and coupe bodies, and the range of power units consisted of in-line gasoline engines: four-cylinder 1.8 and 2.0 or six-cylinder volumes of 2.0 and 2.6 liters. Later, Toyota Corona Mark II also received a 2.2-liter diesel engine.
4th generation (X60), 1980
The fourth generation car, introduced in 1980, became the basis for another independent model - a more expensive sedan. The two-door coupe disappeared from the range of Mark II bodies, but customers began to be offered a four-door hardtop sedan without a central pillar. Of the innovations under the hood, we can note the appearance of a 2.0 inline six-cylinder turbocharged engine.
5th generation (X70), 1984
The 1984 model car officially lost the Corona prefix in the title, although in previous years the model was more often called simply Mark II. The car was equipped with in-line gasoline engines with four or six cylinders, as well as a diesel engine. Production of sedans ended in 1988, while the station wagon continued to be produced with minor changes until 1997.
6th generation (X80), 1988
The sixth generation of the Toyota Mark II model began to be produced in 1988 only with sedan and hardtop sedan bodies. The most affordable version was equipped with a four-cylinder gasoline engine. Inline six-cylinder engines had a volume of 2.0, 2.5 and 3.0 liters, and the most powerful was a turbocharged version of the 2.5-liter power unit, which developed 280 hp. With. There was also a modification with a 2.4-liter turbodiesel. Already in 1992, the car gave way to a new generation car, but this sedan continued to be produced for special taxi services until 1995.
7th generation (X90), 1992
The next version of the Mark II, introduced in Japan in 1992, subsequently became very popular in the eastern regions of Russia, where many of these used cars were imported. Compared to its predecessor, the car has become a little larger, received a more expensive interior trim and richer equipment.
The range of power units has not changed much. These were petrol engines 1.8 (120 hp), 2.0 (135 hp), 2.5 (180 hp), 3.0 (220 hp), as well as a turbocharged version of the 2.5-liter engine with 280 hp . With. The diesel engine had a volume of 2.4 liters and developed 97 liters. With. Like all previous generations of the model, this Mark II had rear-wheel drive, but in 1993 an all-wheel drive version with a 2.5-liter (180 hp) engine went on sale.
8th generation (X100), 1996
The eighth generation of the Toyota Mark II sedan was produced from 1996 to 2000. The version with a four-cylinder engine disappeared from the lineup, all cars were equipped only with in-line "sixes". Gasoline engines 2.0, 2.5 and 3.0 developed 140–280 hp. With. (The turbocharged version of the 2.5 engine was the most powerful as before), and the output of the 2.4-liter turbodiesel was 97 hp. With. All-wheel drive transmission was offered in tandem with engines of two and 2.5 liters.
In 1997, the Toyota Mark II Qualis station wagon went on sale. Despite the name, technically this car was an analogue of the model. Unlike the sedan, the station wagon had front-wheel drive, and the range of power units was different - it was equipped with 2.2 (140 hp), V6 2.5 (200 hp) and V6 3.0 petrol engines with a capacity of 210–215 hp. With. The production of "Qualis" continued until 2002.
