    I’m pretty sure the Crown was not a US-market model, and it’s hardly a coveted JDM enthusiast product like the Skyline, so there are likely only a handful in the state to begin with.

      “In North America, the first through fourth generations were offered from 1958 through 1972, being replaced by the Corona Mark II.“

      1973-2018 models (so fifth to fifteenth gen models) were not USDM. Honestly, I thought when Toyota announced the Crown replacing the Avalon this year, that it was a new vehicle. Guess I was mistaken. In fact, reading up on it, it was the first Japanese car ever sold in the US. Fascinating!
