That is HOT. If they can buy LHD Crowns in China, we should be able to buy them here in the States.

What are the specs on that car? S570 doesn't refer to a 5.7 liter V8 does it? Is it rear wheel drive? 6-speed manual?

If i remeber correctly the Crown Athlete has the same 2.5 and 3.5l v6s that are available in the 2nd generation ISX50

The Crown Royal has the 2.5l and a 3.0l V6

TOM'S Nomenclature always have nothing to do with the engine size, usually their higher numbering system refers to the cars being supercharged. With the lexus models thier numbering system makes more sense though.

I believe they are rear wheel drive.

(Please correct me if im wrong, i just wrote this off the top of my head)
