Looks like a Nissan president.

That's more proof that collectively,  we know everything.  Except what those spikey, knob thingys are.

I don't think it is a President. I looked at images of the H150 and H250. Both have dead straight sill lines and the taillights don't match either.

EDIT: Also odd that it is a LHD car.

Nailed it! I knew it was JDM and initially thought a crown but the back piece of  c pillar trim threw me so guessed president as they were more up market. Forgot about the Cressida.

IMO, the MX32 is one of those rare cars that is completely hideous in stock form, either four-door or two-door, but somehow looks pretty cool when lowered on some nice wheels, and maybe a chin spoiler and some mild flares:

I have a love of Cressidas, and this MX30 strongly contributed.

It's so funny to stumble upon my Cressida on google haha but this is my 1980 Toyota Cressida MX32! I have more pics of it on my instagram: lazysoandso
I still have it today and I also have a 1988 Supra and 2020 Supra with a 1/1 molded widebody kit. The Cressida for some reason doesn't get the love it deserves imo but the people who appreciate it whenever I drive it always brings me joy. Picked it up actually not long before this pic was posted from Chattanooga from twin brothers who have multiple Cressidas some that were JZ swapped and one pristine low mileage stock one.

I'm happy you came across this thread! I've seen your Cressida at a few cars & coffees since I posted that picture.
