cressida with an ES trunk on it.....ok. Probably had a fender bender then needed a new trunk lid and sourced it from a local junk yard. The two cars look very similar and have obvious dimension similarities

Surprised so many of you are laughing. Without the Cressida's success, Toyota might never have launched Lexus. The owner of this car obviously gets this.

Agree 100% Cressida's are the grandfather to what is now Lexus. To this day my Dad still raves about how great his 86 Cressida was (we got rid of it over 20 years ago and have had multiple new Toyota and Lexus vehicles since)

Its like a beetle slapping on a porsche emblem. Yes the porsche came about because of the beetle, but that doesn't mean the beetle deserves to have a porsche emblem on it.

They certainly knew how to design sedan bodies back then. You could actually SEE out the back and sides. That nice high rear roofline and low trunk-lid doesn't hamper visibility a bit. By contrast, many of today's humpback-whale and wedge-shaped sedans are like being inside of a coccoon.

While it is one thing for a cressida owner to cheerlead for a cressida, it's a completely different thing to attempt to justify being a poser with a lexus badge. LOL and LOL.
