"Great value in a used car. Dependability has been great so far for a car with 180,000 miles i have been very pleased.The 3.0 v 6 has ample power and the leather seats are still in great shape with ample support."

"this has been an excellent car for our family. The only problem is I hit a deer with the car and can't find any in the local junk yards. that to me says alot. When my parents 2002 intrepid was in an accident i found several of them in the junkyard and that was in 2008. The fact that I cant find any of these cars in the local salvage yards speaks volumes on how reliable this car is."

"Have owned car for a month and driven 2500 miles with no problems. Mileage is 122000 and car handles almost like new. ride is a little firmer than expected. All features function exceptionally well for a 14 year old car. Interior is very roomy and comfortable. Gas mile is 24-33 mpg depending on useage. Exterior does not show its age-- still a very good shine and only one small rust spot in rear wheel well. As good or better than I expected."

"If you need a vehicle to get you from point A to B in comfort,the 1998 avalon will do the job perfectly and will be mild on your pocket. I bought mine used and presently has 220,334miles on it-miles not kilometers and is not showing any sign of giving up. I had an altima 2.5S 2002 before this car which spent more time at the workshop than on the road thus bought this car 2 years back.I am astonished by the ride quality. It handles better than the look. The only complain i have with the car is that any time i go to the car wash,the doors get filled with water,nothing serious, by the time you drive around and take 2 or 3 turns, the water comes out. I wonder if automakers still make cars this good."

"Would purchase this auto again, the body and interior have held wonderful. People get in the car and ask how old is the vehicle and can't believe I have drove it for 13 yrs and have almost 200,000 miles on it. Most reliable I have ever had."

"Hello, if you're thinking of owning a 98 Avalon you won't be sorry. I bought one 3 years ago and have put around 40k on it. It runs great, very quiet idle, and very powerful passing. I've had it over 115 with room to go and if felt like driving 80. It gets an average of 26 mpg without streatching the truth & I don't crawl where I go. The car is comfortable, stylish & very dependable. If you find one with 150k, be prepared for another worry free 150K. And if not, just about every mechanic can fix them, so shop around & you'll find a very fair price for repairs."

"I own 1998 avalon that I bought new. It has 256k miles on it. No engine problems, no transmission problems, no mechanical problems whatsoever. I have spent money only on routine maintenance. I am looking for a new purchase that would be a used avalon. This car is a sure winner."

"This car is a low profile high-end winner. I have always driven either Lincoln or Mercedes Benz. This car is very nearly the equal of my last (2004) Towncar. Except for city driving (this 11 year-old car is noisy) this car has plenty of zip, acceptable mpg, outstanding reliability, and exceptional workmanship, and at freeway speeds is very quiet. I'd never heard of an Avalon, but it was billed by the salesman, whom I never trust, as a very good car. He undervalued this beauty. I have a 2008 Avalon, now because the 1998 has 189,697 miles on it (never a transmission, engine, or suspension repair or re-make) and I thought it wise to have a newer one to drive distances, though nothing about the 1998 suggests that I replace it. City mpg appx. 24;, freeway mpg appx 28. (I don't rabbit start or brake that much) I'm flummoxed by the car. 5 stars"
