Does anyone have the latest gen crown and Camry? I’m curious about road noise levels especially on less than perfect pavement. I’m currently on a 4th gen Prius I have hearing loss with noise sensitivity so it bugs me quite a bit.

Comments? Observations? Concerns? Who cares?

Hi! Located in West Michigan and put a deposit on a 2026 Crown Signia XLE - oxygen white paint and tan interior. The estimated OTD price is 49,297. They said any negotiation comes after once the car gets to the dealership. Is this common or was negotiation supposed to happen prior to deposit? This is my first time purchasing a car from a dealer and it seems like toyota Rav 4 and the CS XLE are all getting reserved with deposits so I jumped the gun and did it.

Also any tips to negotiate would be appreciated! Thank you.

So I've made some changes that now involve a lot more driving, which has directed me to a hybrid vehicle. I haven't found anything I like that compares to the Crown Platinum Hybrid Pro Max. But where are they?? The local dealer said I can pay a $500 deposit for them to find/build what I want, then it's mine when it comes in (which entails signing a contract). However, I've never even been inside a newer model, let alone driven one. Salesperson prefaced this by saying, "I'm not supposed to tell you this", then said if I decide against it after driving it, they can't "legally" keep my deposit, since they aren't selling me any goods. I'm not comfortable taking a salesperson's word, when I would be signing something to the contrary. Has anyone else encountered this?

Anyone can help or direct me to somewhere to source a watch key that's compatible with a Crown GWS204?

Ever since the crown came out, I loved it. But it was out of my price range, I got a promotion and another source of income. So I was looking into them again as I am growing tired of the rough ride my 22 WRX has and I am not a car guy so I don’t care for mods. I should come out with 2k trading my WRX in.

I originally wanted a limited Crown, but newer since apparently the 23/24s have the weird window wind noise thing. They are a bit out of the price I would like to pay. However there is a 25 XLE Certified pre owned Crown with 27k miles for 36k. I feel like that’s a lot of miles for a newish car, but there’s a few others with over 30k miles in my area. Unfortunately, there isn’t a lot of crowns being sold in my area besides platinums, which I do not want.

How do you guys feel? Is this a good deal?

2026 crown xle at 6 months with 2,400 miles. I am prepared to get oil change and tgen again at 1 yr interval when it's free on maintenance plan. For now, can those of you who have changed your oil and bought the filter, say at Autozone, please tell me which brand you bought? Wanting to follow best maintenance. Realize they sell the mobile oil for an ok price per quarter. Trying to save $ instead of dealer cost $180. In northwest Austin area. Many thanks!

How expensive is it to get a fob? So I can have two?

Hi all, just checking in, been a lurker for a while. Crown seems cool, I work from home so I'm going to put very few miles on whatever I get, and I don't get on the highway much.

Other than Crown, looking at 2-3 year old cars, hybrid Camry or Accord sport L. I wish the Accord grill looked a little better and the speakers were pretty disappointing. I know those aren't difficult to change though.

Any advice is super appreciated, thanks for your time in advance if you comment!

Love my 2026 red crown xle. Keep in garage and usually is only used in daylight in fairly safe areas. After reading comments re camry wheels theft, thought I should ask which wheel locks to get and if they're difficult to install (female here and older, can't do it myself). Thanks in advance!
