    Agree on white--though to really appreciate it, it does need to be the right light. The first one I saw was on a city side street at night under a harsh point-source street light and the way it shimmered was jaw-dropping. We oogled as we drove by slowly. Later I saw another on a cloudy day and it was blah. I actually went back to the Toyota website wondering if there were two whites! Nope. Then, the third time was on a showroom floor and again, amazingly cool looking. If I had been patient enough to wait for the color I wanted, that would have been it.

    Also agree on black, it just hides everything. Even when asking for "first available", I said anything but black.

    I would totally agree except I really wish yellow was an option.

    I've seen a few now in WI. Have never seen a Crown outside of a dealership though. Our local dealer has been sitting on the same Crown since March now. Other near-by dealers also have them sitting on their lots with no interest. Doesn't seem to be any kind of market for that car.
