The fourth generation received a complete redesign from the third when it was introduced on July 6, 2004. In August 2006, the Toyota Celsior was no longer offered in Japan, due to the introduction of the Lexus brand. The Crown Majesta replaced the Celsior, despite objections from Japanese customers. The engine was upgraded to the 3UZ-FE, shared with the USA-spec Lexus LS. The transmission was upgraded to a 6-speed and the four wheel drive was improved. Enhancements were made to the interior of the vehicle, including a rear-view camera and parking assistance technology. A supercharger was also offered with the 6-speed transmission, allowing the engine to produce 340 bhp (254 kW; 345 PS), as well as air suspension. Prices are generally quoted around $69,400 (US Dollars for the Crown Majesta AWD.

    To see the elephant jump the fence.
    He jumped so high he reached the sky,
    And didn’t get back till the Fourth of July.
    —Unknown. I Asked My Mother (l. 1–4)

    A generation which has passed through the shop has absorbed standards and ambitions which are not of those of spaciousness, and cannot get away from them. Everything with them is done as though for sale, and they naturally have in view the greatest possible benefit, profit and that end of the stuff that will make the best show.
    Alexander Herzen (1812–1870)

    Rosalynn said, “Jimmy, if we could only get Prime Minister Begin and President Sadat up here on this mountain for a few days, I believe they might consider how they could prevent another war between their countries.” That gave me the idea, and a few weeks later, I invited both men to join me for a series of private talks. In September 1978, they both came to Camp David.
    Jimmy Carter (James Earl Carter, Jr.)
