I'm pretty sure the Crown was not a US-market model, and it's hardly a coveted JDM enthusiast product like the Skyline, so there are likely only a handful in the state to begin with.
Bro what even...
That really does not change the fact that it is ugly as fuck.
“In North America, the first through fourth generations were offered from 1958 through 1972, being replaced by the Corona Mark II.“
1973-2018 models (so fifth to fifteenth gen models) were not USDM. Honestly, I thought when Toyota announced the Crown replacing the Avalon this year, that it was a new vehicle. Guess I was mistaken. In fact, reading up on it, it was the first Japanese car ever sold in the US. Fascinating!
