Funny you should show those pics, because in the first pic, the little car next to the Crown is the Allion.... Well they arent all that little, they are the same size as the new Carolla..... As much as I want that Crown, it really is a silly car for Japan, as there is basically nil freeway driving, and so they guzzle like pigs!.. Thats why I looked at the Allion, it is smaller, but has more room than my ES, or so it feels, and comes with alot of the mod cons of the Crown......

If that is the cresta...that and the Chaser look very very similar.

The pics listed below are of a real JDM 1994 Chaser that's for sale. I've seen the car in person and sat in it during the Toyota Owners & Restorers Club meet in Long Beach back in June. The Chaser listed unfortunately cannot be registered or driven in the State of CA because it does not meet emissions requrements.

The Cresta picture originally posted looks more like the ES.. But the Chaser does too.
