1989 Toyota Cressida Sedan review from North America

"One spectacular Toyota"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Recently the brake calipers on the front left side seized. Though that problem was easily fixed for free.

When we bought the car the front right headlight is aimed slightly down farther than it should be due to a cracked mould, but that is easily fixed as well.

The parking lights on that side are loose as well, because of the same problem.

The clear-coat is peeling off of the back bumper, hardly noticeable.

General comments?

My brother and I bought this car as our first, it was obviously some old man's pampered baby, only 125,000 KMs, and everything was spotless.

We even saw the original record from when the car arrived, it did had needed a thing to be safetied. It passed emission testing with flying colours, and had recently received a very professional new paint-job and brand new winter tires.

Not only does this car look good - and it does look good - but it performs. It has very good handling and 190 HP from the same engine Toyota used in the 1989 Supra.

The digital dash in ours is rather nifty, and it is loaded with all the features except the sunroof.

If you'd like a Lexus, but can't afford one, this car is for you, all the same amenities for less. Race Mustangs while being pampered by the luxury features and having the convenience of a 4 door sedan.
