    They sure will try if I'm dumb enough to set a foot in their showroom.

    A stock Civic, thank you. I'm an adult.

    Hi All:

    And how Toyota plans on marketing this sharp looking, next Avalon in their lineup.

    ‘Reunion’


    Toyota's all-new 2023 Toyota Crown will launch with its “Says So Much” campaign. The campaign conveys how great it feels to show off the all-new youthful style and improved performance of Toyota’s all-new sedan.

    The fully integrated targeted campaign was developed by Saatchi & Saatchi. The campaign highlights the driving the reimagined sedan and “Says So Much” about what the buyer will experience from the 2023 Toyota Crown.

    In the :30 spot, titled “Reunion” embedded above, viewers will imagine moments where they might stand out in the all-new Toyota Crown. The spot features the main character’s commute and arrival to a school reunion while showcasing the Toyota Crown’s bold styling, premium comfort and elevated ride height.

    That thing looks as if it has some sort of external cargo basket mounted in front. ??

    If it's like a friend's '75 Newport, you can fit a full size cooler in there.

    Make it big and ugly. Americans like that.

    The spirit of the legendary Virgil Exner lives on in many of today's caricature styling elements.

    Yes, and be sure to add a giant grille up front that can swallow up smaller cars and baby strollers. I saw that in the old 60s Bond movie Your Only Live Twice, where one spacecraft eats another. Most of today's passenger "vehicles" have that giant lobster trap front end that has no actual use because most of it is blocked off.
    Note the demographic they're selling to. The driver is a clapped-out wretch driving at around 30 in the center lane on the freeway, absolutely no directional signals used, staring at unsecured garbage on the passenger seat and adjacent building instead of where the car is heading, and parking a good two feet away from the curb. There is no justice in a world where she is not paying at last $10k a year in car insurance.

    Hi All:

    Sorry that it took so long but the 2023 Toyota Crown first drive vid is up...

    The Toyota Crown is a mid-size luxury sedan that has been in production since 1955. It is one of Toyota's longest-running models and is primarily sold in Japan.

    Previous generations of the Crown have been known for their comfortable ride, spacious interiors, and advanced features such as driver-assistance technologies and hybrid powertrains.

    In the all-new 2023 Crown, the tradition continues with a high level of luxury and the very latest technology. Along with the attractive exterior, it incorporates some of Toyota's latest advancements in areas of connectivity thanks to the Plano HQ Connectivity team kicking @$$ and taking names.

    Here is my own take after a few short miles behind the wheel...
