Sorry, but there isn't one. The closest thing to it, is the Inspire. But That's the TL. Then the first gen CL's..... You have the 5th gen Accord.

Wrong. Toyota has a brand called Crown for their nicer cars. Same idea as Lexus here. I know this because I just spent 2 weeks in Japan.

What am I wrong..?

Crown is just a high level of cars in Toyota in Japan.. like Acura RL in US

Toyota Crown Majesta is the one of 'em.

You've spent 2 weeks in Japan..? so what does it make differences?

I don't know how to answer your second question.

Anyway, the car didn't say Toyota on it. Same goes for the Lexus 330, no Toyota anywhere on the car.

Acutally, I don't know what you are talking 'bout..

I was talking 'bout that, in Japan, they call Toyota even tho they are Lexus here.

However, recently, they also have a lexus in Japan too. ( I meant with lexus badges)

But, I dont know why you brought the Crown there...? Crown is just a name(type) of cars in Toyota..(high level)

And, I don't understand why you said that I'm wrong.. what part am I wrong..?

"CR" LOL Nope, the CL is like a Euro Accord. As for japan... I'd love to check that out, All Hondas are Hondas. Not Honda/Acura. They are all Hondas or Mugen if you are rich enough.

Sorry, bud. Holden is a branch off of GM, like Opel. They're 3x better quality than any of the GM's in America, though.

Ford has Tickford in Australia, and they own part of Mazda, Jaguar, & Aston Martin if I'm not mistaken.
