A reliable, comfortable and plain car.
The car is spacious reliable and well built, yet the styling is plain. I dont like the buick style bench seat. But the back is spacious and the car is of good quality. good trunk space.
Fun Luxury!
My vehicle has been totally trouble free for the 30,000 miles I've owned it (now has 77K miles). Very comfortable, lots of power.
I love my AVALON
I love this car and would have to say that bringing it home reminds me of when my father brought home his ultimate car- a 1962 Cadillac(the one with the big fins)- he was so thrilled and excited and so am I. It is stylish, posh, and comfortable as well as practical and fun to drive. The ride is like floating on a cloud with no sound. It drives like a dream and all you hear inside is the great sound system. This is my ultimate car and will probably be my last car as I plan on keeping it for a long time.
My car
This car has been excellent in regard to driving pleasure, reliability, gas mileage, comfort, size and looks.
Taking a beating, but still ticking
I love my 98 Avalon Love my JBL sound system. Great for tail gating and travel. Especially for travel because of road noise, which is still an issue for the newer models. I had two major issues with mine. The air conditioning sensor went bad and in 2004 engine was rebuilt due to sludge damage. Good news both were covered by Toyota. Ive owned a Corona, Corolla, Land Cruiser, and Avalon. Favorite model was my Corolla. I dont think I will have to buy a new car if my Avalon keeps running as good as it has the last 6 years!
