What Our Members Are Saying about Toyota Avalon Materials and Workmanship

Available Features of the Toyota Avalon: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2008 4dr Sedan 268-horsepower 3.5L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic FWD		 The vehicle feels very solid. Smooth, comfortable ride to Sedona,Az from L.A. which was easy and I felt good after driving 6 hours. Mileage was surprising good and I scoot along pretty good. Closing the door has that Mercedes feel. Very quiet ride.
2007 4dr Sedan 268-horsepower 3.5L V6
5-speed shiftable automatic FWD		 On a par with Lexus (or other good luxury car), but lower cost.
Materials and Workmanship of the Toyota Avalon: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2009 4dr Sedan 268-horsepower 3.5L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic FWD		 Having owned 8 different Toyotas over the years I have seen a steady decline in quality in recent years. This was well reflected in the Avalon. For an upscale car, the fit and finish were quite poor. No comparison with the Genesis.
