Still questioning why I sold it!

This car was awesome. Reliable, powerful, looked good, comfortable. I upgraded to a newer model after nine year, but could have driven the Venza for another nine!

Great car so far

This is my first Toyota .its a four cylinder awd .fully loaded.it does lack horsepower but has been a very reliable car.its easy to work on.the spark plugs are easily accessible .just recently had to replace the plastic housing by the thermostat and the downstream oxygen sensor.changing the oil and filter is a pain.i have to put the car up on the steel ramps to access the filter which is the canister type which I don't like.other than that a good all around car.pretty low maintainence after 9 years and 118000 kms.

Nice body style and a good overall vehicle.

I have a lot of miles on this one. If still making I would be trading for a new one, Periodically review Cars.Com for a comparable car - just about has to be identical, i,e., exterior and interior colors. My seatcovers are aftermarket and seem more comfortable than cars I have tried. ay

Stylish crossover

I hated to give this car up when I got our new Toyota. The car was gold and I received comments on it wherever I went. The new Toyota has additional safety features that I wanted otherwise I would not have given up the Venza. It was a great car.

Awesome car!

This car is a dream to drive! It has a wider wheel base and handle beautifully. No problems ....ever! And the sound system is remarkable, especially sine the ride is so quiet!

The Toyota Venza: The Best I've Owned

The Venza is a car/SUV crossover with a surprisingly powerful 6 cylinder engine. Very comfortable seats with great back support. It is a pleasure to drive it long distances. Great cargo space. My wife's favorite thing is the LED compass in the rear view mirror.

Love this car!

This is the best car I have ever owned. I originally had a Honda Accord and got the Venza after totaling the Honda. I can not say how great it is. Extremely well built so very reliable. Has so much room inside so my riders are always comfortable. It drives soooo smooth. After getting it my mom wanted to buy one for herself lol. The entire inside of the car has to be my favorite part! Great speakers, touch screen radio, leather heated seats, and TWO sunroofs!!! If you're looking for a good, reliable, safe, and good-looking car then the Venza is for you.

Love My Venzza

I currently have a 2009 XLE Venza and am about to trade it in for the 2014 AWD. I have had no complaints about this car. In fact I believe that it is one of the safest SUVs out there. I was struck in the back from another SUV. The person hit me pretty hard for the front of their SUV was totally smashed in. My Venza sustained damage to the truck and exhaust but I did not feel the impact as I could have. I was afraid because of a previous injury to my back, but no problems thus far, and that was over a year ago. I would recommend this SUV to anyone. She is also quite good looking.
