Straight Outta Tokyo: 2000 Toyota Crown Estate


Looking for a wagon that’s equal parts stealth luxury, JDM cool, and straight-up practicality? Here’s your ticket: a Toyota Crown Estate, packing the legendary 1JZ-GE straight-six under the hood. With only 78k miles on the clock, this longroof is barely broken in by Toyota standards. The Crown was never sold in the U.S., so seeing one stateside is already a flex—but seeing one in wagon form? That’s unicorn territory. Import papers are in hand, and the car presents in excellent condition, ready to haul groceries, surfboards, or just your ego past rows of crossovers at Costco. Find this 2000 Toyota Crown Estate offered for $8900 in Riverside, CA via facecrown estateplace.

I see a lot of JDM vehicles for sale out of Riverside, CA with the notation “import papers only”. Fresh off the boat, enjoy the hassle of getting US title. Strange thing is a lot of them are not really sought after like a Skyline, EVO or other forbidden fruit that might be worth jumping through the hoops. They are rather pedestrian vehicles. :)
