    The last Mark II wagon that was around the same time as this Crown was rear-wheel drive. The later Camry-based wagon that replaced them was a Mark X. The Mark II wagon and Mark X sedan overlapped for a few years, though, which is odd.
    Anyway, I want one of these.

    • @PacificCoastAuto
      @PacificCoastAuto  Před 3 lety +1

      Thanks for pointing this out.
      The one I was talking about was the "Mark II Qualis".
      The "Mark II Blit" is rear wheel drive wagon, but it became a tall boy and kind of doesn't fit in the "station wagon" pocket in my mind. You are right though.

    Question about cameras: I'm wondering from your experience why a somewhat high-end DSLR is used for the video and photo reports? I've seen some other car channels have been switching to using iPhone or similar smartphone as their camera. To me, this seems great if you're doing mainly point & shoot, plus they are less expensive and come with all the other utility of a smartphone. This is a fantastic Crown as well, nicely bought.

    • @PacificCoastAuto
      @PacificCoastAuto  Před 3 lety

      It's a good question but one that would take a long time to answer. I think that the biggest thing for me is that a higher end camera gives better control over everything. This is important to consider- even small efficiencies build up a lot over many many vehicle reports.

    • @Driiven
      @Driiven Před 3 lety

      Its true, the camera hardware on a smartphone is very much in the hands of the software and not the user. And audio is something I hadn't considered either. Something to be said for being able to upload directly to CZcams or dropbox from the device though. There again this is coming from someone with next to 0 DLSR experience!

      Depending on condition, ya about 10k-ish by the time it’s passed provincial inspection and ready to be insured. The Turbo 2wds tend to be a couple grand or so more than that. And the Na 2wds tend be a couple grand less.

      Oh for sure. Japan auction is the way I went and total landed cost was quite a bit cheaper than the prices mentioned above. (Hint: the Crown in this video is my Crown and I couldn’t be happier... unless it also had a Turbo, lol).

      Hard to say for sure, with the current car market, but I won this one for about 180k yen back in January. The wheels probably added some cost but the auction sheet said the rear hatch didn’t open so that might have kept the price down a bit.
