They always keep the best stuff for themselves in Japan.

Seconded. I will buy it over GS any day... well, that's why Mark X is JDM. It will steal GS sales.

Always loved the Mark X. Also wish they brought it Stateside. It'd be nice to see this alongside the Yaris, Corolla, Camry, Avalon as a fun sport option. Maybe compete against the Genesis, 300C, Caprice etc..

That's the Cressida. I would love to see it here, sans those hideous wheels and lowering kits, but it's not going to happen.

they could just rebadge this cars as GS and sell it here instead of the new one that looks nothing but boring.

Definitely a sick looking car! So aggressive! I bet that car would sell like hotcakes stateside... We've got a lot of nice cars in the U.S., but we're definitely missing out on a lof of neat cars, this being one of them...

That front end is so damn cool and unique. They most definitely need to bring that over stateside. Even if its in limited quantities. Similar to what Chevy will be doing with the upcoming SS (Holden).

The Mark X doesn't really look good in stock form, I would get a IS over it any time.

But bring the Royal Crown! It would pass with a Lexus badge!

While I'm not a fan of it's styling, I think they should bring it. It's an interesting car.
