Iziz Clutched February 1, 2007 Share February 1, 2007 Becoz for the same price-tag, one can buy a BMW/Merc? Eg. for Royal Crown, I can get a 325 or 330 ardi (equivalent specs but with conti branding) As I noticed, most of these buyers r Jap high level executives who have to drive a Jap make.

Hobbes187 3rd Gear February 1, 2007 Share February 1, 2007 I saw a royal crown once... white colour I think... Think very hard to find one on the road... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nazaki Clutched February 1, 2007 Share February 1, 2007 Seen a few royal crowns in Hyatt, CBD areas, the office building behind central square etc. Saw a few NEW models too. Its VERY BIG! in fact, i feel that its ard the same size as the S class. At the price tag of 160 to 200, 1 can easily afford a Lexus ES300 with alot of change or a GS300. I gues people who buy these are people who wanna be unique or japanese? Specs wise, its not tt good too. Legend wif SOHC 3.5L engine.... Drinker man.

Megalord Neutral Newbie February 1, 2007 Share February 1, 2007 I came across the legend several times whilst doing shopping, a little surprised when i saw 315NM @ 5000rpm here, as well as KM website. The torque i have been seeing is, 351NM @ 5000RPM or 259 lb ft@5000. 295 horses is similar. I hope its a typo error in misplacing the 5 and 1. A car i would consider to replace my ES300.

Kiss29 Neutral Newbie February 1, 2007 Share February 1, 2007 Yes, 100% of the owner of royal crown are Japanese boss. Use to see many in Tuas and AMK indistrial area where japanese factories are located. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Megalord Neutral Newbie February 1, 2007 Share February 1, 2007 Quite keen to try out the lux cars from honda to be honest. I used to think Lexus is the top amongst the jap rides, but after a few encounters with honda rides, i do believe if honda want to do lux rides, they can do it as well, if not better. Somehow something tells me it might be so, afterall honda strangely put a SOHC engine into this car... Just waiting for test drive units to be available. How i wish manual versions are available as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fcw75 Hypersonic February 1, 2007 Share February 1, 2007 (edited) The Legend is very very chio, esp if kitted with the Mugen kit. I saw it at the Motorshow, couldn't take my eyes off it...not bcoz there was a model standing besides it lah. A lot of standard options! http://www.honda.com.sg/lege_spec.htm Edited February 1, 2007 by Fcw75 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zoomx Neutral Newbie February 1, 2007 Share February 1, 2007 You are very right. Most of the buyers are Japanese. There are alot of crowns near my work place. The higher level ones will use LS430. The best part, most of these are bought by the company they are in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iziz Clutched February 1, 2007 Share February 1, 2007 Of coz it is paid for by the Company, those r for the high level executives. Japs r all abt protocol, so the car they drive is carefully planned for. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carmaniac Neutral Newbie February 1, 2007 Share February 1, 2007 (edited) Seen the toyota royal crown like about 4 times.. but never see honda legend before.. imo royal crown's design is not really impressive, like too squarish.. gs300 or 5 series would definitely look better Edited February 1, 2007 by Carmaniac Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
