If you are looking to import the Crown into the USA, that is illegal, at least until the car is 25-years old. See and read through the thread Importing RCF from UK to California.

The OP shows a location of central SA. I'm guessing the SA is not short for USA.

More info would help, but probably the wrong place to ask.

The Toyota Crown in Left Hand Drive will be assembled in China.
The build quality may not be as good as Japan, but Chinese build quality should be good enough.

You must fly to China to find out more about the 13th generation 2012-18 brand new Chinese built Left Hand Drive Toyota Crown.
You might need a translator too.

There is the latest 14th generation 2018-24 Crown, but it is NOT yet available in Left Hand Drive for the Chinese market.
You may or may not like the look of the new Crown.
Despite the longer wheelbase, it may be a bit smaller inside due to the new front mid-engine configuration, and the lower roof height - if I'm not wrong.

I do like the look of the new dashboard and leather seats...

The Crown is a genuine midsize sedan.
The Cressida was a special modification of the Crown to fall under the Passenger Car Tax Category abolished back in 1989 in Japan.
This special car tax category stipulated that a car had to be less than 4.7 m long by 1.7 m wide to avoid the tax penalty.
The Toyota Cressida and Nissan Skyline was created for this role.
The Cressida was the export name.
The Japanese Domestic Market called it a Toyota Mark II.
Nowadays, the JDM calls it a Toyota Mark X [Ten].
Today, the Mark X does slightly exceed the 4.7 x 1.7 m tax threshold last used in 1989.
Here it is below.
The more compact dimensions of the Cressida/Mark Series and Skyline/Infiniti Q50 results in a tighter interior, but much more agile handling.
Mark Series & Skyline/Q50 is 1/2 size smaller than E Class, but 1/2 bigger than C Class.
