But you know what's pointless? Converting JDM MSRP at market exchange rates to compare prices to a USDM model. That shows you really have no clue.
Example:
JDM Lexus GS 350 ¥5,520,000 => $59,721
USDM Lexus GS 350 $45,600

K, that's my mistake and I'll take that hit, but current currency, of course ¥ > $. The reason why I use 2nd gen Aristo is because Aristo is GS. But you know, I guess I used wrong example.
You want the same currency? Fine, I'll bite on that
'09 JDM Lexus GS460 = ¥6,750,000
'09 JDM Toyota Crown Majesta = ¥6,850,000
and lets compare the highest package/version GS460 & Mejesta price tag
'09 JDM Lexus GS460 Ver L = ¥7,750,000
'09 JDM Toyota Crown Majesta F Package = ¥7,900,000
they both has FR layout, sedan (90% same chassis: Internal chassis is same, but external chassis has minor difference), v8 (same v8: 1UR-FSE). Is that good enough?
