Surprising additional assessments

A much better car than I could even imagine it was! Very pleased and surprised by the comfort and performances! With the additional unexpected radar and other added properties, driving and safety is by far the best car I've owned! Top quality at a super price!

Most Beautiful car in my family

I currently also own a 2007 Avalon. This car is a wonderful update to the 2007 version. It is beautifully engineered and I am really enjoying the experience of driving it. Toyota seems to have thought of every safety feature to add to this version. I am really satisfied with my purchase and truly appreciate the help of Desert Toyota's Daniel Jimenez in purchasing it. I chose Desert Toyota because it also has a wonderful service department.

Great car

Beautiful car. Los of power. Love it. Drive great. The only downside is the radio. The sound is very low. If you raise the volume the sound becomes distorted

Avalon best value for the dollar

Classy car at a reasonable price; unsurpassed reliability, comfort is almost A+, interior is plush without being 'richy', rear seats is very good for the tall person, trunk is adequate for 3/4 suitcases, gas mileage is very good. Overall, a great car for roominess and comfort at a very reasonable price (if negotiated successfully).

I feel very safe in this car

Having had an incident with the shift on my 2015 Mercedes E series (2 ankle fractures when car back into me as it shifted from park to reverse) I purchased a 2008 used Lexus which was great but did not have a lot of the new safety features as does my Avalon. I had Avalons in the past and decided to check out the new Touring model. I love the GPS,, the fact that I can put in my address book into the Blue Tooth very easily and can hear and see passers bye on my mirrors was appealing to me and I have been very satisfied with this car so far. I am still learning all the things it can do but each day I realize my peace of mind in buying and owning my Toyota Avalon

Avalon styling and reliability once again

I purchased the Touring model Avalon, which is the sporty version of this vehicle. This 2017 Avalon is celebrating the 20th production year anniversary of the Avalon. This model gives you all the reliability and safety of a four door sedan, but with the handling and response of a sports car. Although not as extreme as a racetrack ready car, it is a great compromise that also comes with great features and excellent interior/exterior styling. Handling is stable and tight, without being rigid, and the ride is firm but not hard. Although boasting up to 268 HP, it also gives great economy on the road.

You only have to drive one to love it!

I've never had a car that has really stood up completely to my expectations. It drives beautifully and has enough power to stand toe to toe with most sports cars. It's elegant and provides comfort on touring and long trips as our family loves to drive on long vacations through several states.

Safety features are great

Love this car. We live on a busy street. We really love the blind spot alarm and mirrors flashing when backing out of our drive. We thought that would only alert us when signaling. Love the roomy interior and to trunk space. Drive is smooth. Our first Toyota in almost 50 years. We think we'll buy another in a few years.
