1995 Toyota Avalon consumer reviews

I bought my 1995 Avalon to pick up kids at school in 2010. 17 years later and it is still running great. I replaced the timing belt because I have owned Honda's and Toyota's and believe in changing the timing belt every 100,000 miles -then they keep going - I love this old car and it has never let me down. I am thinking about buying a newer car but afraid I cannot get this kind of quality

With only 177000 miles, this car has lots of life left in it. Routine maintenance was all it has needed. 30 MPG @ 80 MPH is routine. No drips or rust. The worst thing is that the drivers side leather seat covering needs recovering.

I bought a 1995 Avalon xls in 2001 with 104000 mi. I'ts 2015 with 235000 mi and it runs as good as the day I bought it. We have 6 cars and trucks in our family and this 3.0 engine and transmission has got to be one of the best comb's of All Time!!!! Great vehicle.

I bought my 1995 Avalon XLS with 130,000 miles in 2013. It is now a year and one half later and has 12,000 more miles. This car is fantastic, especially considering it's age. It rides so nice and has never let me down even during this last terrible winter season. I have put the very basic money into it for normal wear and tear. I love this car.

I purchased my Avalon (nickname: Ava) in 2005 as a college student with 75k miles. I lived about 2hrs away from home and I would travel there maybe 2 times a month, but mostly used around the city. The funny thing is, I totaled it after hitting a deer on the interstate in 2007, but I re-purchased & repaired the body. Since then I have not had one single major issue. I've had to get a starter put in, the window motor replaced at the dealership (a little pricey), and recently got the spark plugs and high mileage maintenance completed. Ava now has 211k miles and is still giving me the quietest smoothest most enjoyable ride that I could ask for. One of the best purchases I've ever made.

I bought my 1995 Toyota Avalon in 2001. It only had 32,000 miles on it. It is now almost 18 years old and has 311,000 miles on it!! It has never once broken down or had any major issues. I have kept up with the maintenance on it. Yhe only thing I had to have done was the starter had to be rebuilt. And that was before it hit 40,000 miles but it was no big deal. The funny thing is that the timing belt has NEVER been changed! I just bought one though and will be changing it in a couple of days. The car runs like a dream! Its great on gas mileage and its so comfortable. This car has never even dripped oil onto the driveway. Im so pleased with my car!

My wife bought a car exactly like this one 2 years ago. She now has 295,000 miles on it and still running. Fixed regular things with suspension but the motor can't be beat. Fantastic value.

I've owned Miss Betsy (My Avalon) for seven years. I bought her with 103,00 and now she has over 200,000. She's had some repairs done (O2 sensor, water pump), but she's been amazing. I get great gas milage on the highway, and okay milage through town. She's super comfortable and used to be really quiet (now she knocks and whines a little, but that's because she's a little rusty in the under-carriage and some things are coming loose). I've taken her all over the country with no problems at all, and she drives GREAT in our heavy SW Michigan winters. All-in-all, I recommend my Avalon to anyone asking. Miss Betsy might be an old broad, but she can keep up with the best of them.

bought the car with 111,000 miles, drove it relatively hard for 10,000 miles and 7 months. Now at 121,000 miles it is in the shop with a transmission problem that will cost 2,200 dollars to fix. I think Toyota's need to be babied and are overrated. I am really mad about this problem.

I bought it with 111,000 miles and now have 119,000 miles. The airbag light has been on since I bought it, and the horn doesn't work. I'm thinking it may be a faulty sensor. I had to replace the exhaust manifold at 113,000. Those are the only problems I've had except for some tire problems and a battery dying. Overall I would say it is a good car. Even though I've had a few problems I won't complain too much because this is a used car. Hoping the engine and transmission will last for 200K or more.
