Its insane how many parts are shared between this crown and my 1998 GS. The seats, armrest, and center console/shifter area are the exact same. Love this car, such quality.
Crown's are the best car for the money in the JDM world, IMO. Everything else getting super overpriced, yet these extremely well-built, reliable, and great looking cruisers go for silly money.
Crown 17х & Majesta 17x absolutelly different cars. Crown was build on Altezza/Progres/Brevis/Mark2/Verossa/Blit chassis. Majesta was build on Aristo/Soarer chassis
Derek... really enjoy your videos... also I may mention my wife and I enjoy JDMs here in Australia, R33 GTS-t, Z11 Cube and V36 Skyline are vehicles we own... if we get more we will use your services...
When I bought my Aristo (boo me, I bought one already in the US) the importer had a 140 series Majesta that was being worked on. I got to look in it and felt the seats and Derek is exactly right about how soft they feel. It’s almost indescribable. (Some may say I made the wrong choice with the Aristo instead of the Majesta, but...turbos.) Also, did someone start a JDM import business in France? This is the 3rd or 4th one you’ve had this week.
@pacificcoastauto Hey Derek do you have a total number of vehicles you have exported since you started your business? Hope you and your fam/friends are keeping safe from Ontario Canada.
I have the ability to count it but we changed the tracking method about 5 years ago. While we aren't big players, we still did over 500 cars last year. I'm proud of our team for doing that. We all worked very hard.
We always post videos at 6:00 pm Japan time. Perhaps daylight savings time in your country moved that an hour back? Otherwise I might have accidentally selected the wrong time while uploading. We have no intent to change the posting time.
@@PacificCoastAuto I'm from Trinidad & Tobago and usually receive your videos at 5am however, I've been receiving them 6 hours later. We don't have Daylight saving time lol
@@onse8982 it is soo dumb i mean only because the NA market is doing this doesnt mean that everyone has to.follow but... i mean sales numbers are more important and a defining factor i would say maybe i am wrong haha
Crowns are so underrated. Excellent cars for the money.
You do turn up in the strangest places!
@@R33Racer lol true
@@R33Racer hey, I imported a Crown using Derek & team!
Indeed.
Ran an s180 athlete for a while.
Beautiful motor.

Yep, I believe these are more or less the same chassis. I know the 14x Majestas are the same chassis as my 147 Aristo.
because S16х Aristo/LexusGS the same Majesta S17х. Like mark2/cresta/chaser - one model with different shape
Some of these interior parts are used on my parents 2016 Corolla.
It’s not just good it’s the best! One of favourite JDM cars of all time. I appreciate most of the body styles.

Согласен с вами, отличный авто, дизайн актуален до сих пор! Привет с Хабаровска))

Didn't realize there was such a difference between the 171 Crowns and the 177 Crowns. Almost a totally different car.
Oh yeah???

Hello Derek, any reason why videos are being uploaded at a later time?

My favourite car crown 💚💚
How can I order a crown athlete 2009 RHD from you guys??
Awesome
Can I get one in Jamaica?
Amazing car
Derek getting a bit emotional there when touching those seats guys, turn that camera away please🤣
I love fast forwarding .
First! Nice car!
Know what’s interesting? That rear angle on the C pillar and rear window design are similar to the current Camry I believe.
sad to see that the next mark x is.a crossover... the day of the sedans are close to an end
So is the next Crown an SUV. :(

I agree. The tyres don’t look match the essence of the car, it looks tacky.
