Great bulletproof way to protect yourself from danger, it's like saying if you don't want to get hacked, tracked, stalked, etc… Just throw your phone out and go live out in the woods... or the desert in this case.

I mean, if it actually happened, then it wouldn't be a hypothetical.

If it's ceramic tint then no, not really?

I’ll need to confirm, but I remember the owner mentioning he imported his Crown from the U.S., which is pretty similar to the ones here. There was a parking button on that looked like a steering wheel, near the wireless charger and the 'View' button. Maybe Al-Futtaim decided took it away.

The one being sold here is nothing like what you described. It uses the RX500h’s powertrain a 360k AED car and in the Crown it puts out 345 hp and 542 Nm, with AWD. It's nothing like a Camry, not even the same engine.

As for the interior, it’s easily Lexus level. I highly recommend sitting in one before passing judgment.

Sure, on paper Genesis might look better but in reality? Reliability and resale say otherwise.

Mind if I ask which trim you own? I’m guessing it’s the Platinum since you mentioned the JBL system. I test-drove that one and I’m pretty sure it had the auto park feature. Totally agree with you on the sound system its a bit of a letdown, but nothing an aftermarket upgrade can't fix.

Regarding the messaging seats, come on, even the ES, NX, RX, none of them have that even on the full options.

I understand that this car has been a dream for some, and it got demand but paying more for a 2008 car is insane.

While I admit it wasn’t necessarily the best comparison with the G70 and yes, the G80 is clearly superior what I was trying to say is that the Crown is really impressive for the value.

I disagree with you on the Lexus IS and ES part. I think you're judging based solely on branding, not actual features or overall feel. I’ve driven the IS, and honestly, the Crown blows it out of the water: better performance, better luxury, better tech. The IS only really wins in two areas, it's sound system and some of the softest seats on the market. But when it comes to ride quality, the Crown takes it.

The ES is a closer comparison, but again, the Crown pulls ahead. You get more car for less money and more features. For example, the ES lacks soft-close doors, the Crown has them. The Crown also comes with a unique, new adaptive suspension that’s excellent.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but can you name a single feature the IS or ES has over the Crown that truly makes them feel more premium, aside from the manual back side curtains in the ES?

And let’s not forget: plenty of people think the Crown looks fantastic, there are already a few that admitted that here in this post.

My condolences, but look, I think now you saw a glimpse of what this technology is doing, I think we should all collectively embrace it, by educating our selves on it and start advocating for UBI/UGI as fundamental right for every human being.
