Toyota Avalon for Sale

Edmunds' Expert Review

by the Edmunds Experts

Pros

Carefully constructed cabin befitting a Lexus, powerful and smooth V6 engine, superb ride quality, huge rear seat.

Cons

Not as much fun to drive as a Chrysler 300, stability control can only be had on top-rung models.

What’s new

The Avalon has been redesigned for 2005 and now offers a more powerful V6 and even more room than before.

Edmunds says

Need a full-size sedan with plenty of room, power, luxury and refinement? The ultrarefined Avalon is about as good as it gets.

Best car I've ever driven.

Jeff, 09/02/2016

2005 Toyota Avalon Limited 4dr Sedan (3.5L 6cyl 5A)

I purchased my car out of an impulse buy, simply because it is the greatest car I have ever driven. My 2005 toyota avalon limited, which by the way has 190000 miles, drives like it is brand new. No shakes like what everybody says, no acceleration problems by any means, I enjoy racing it and a newer Hellcat put up a pretty good chance with my avalon. The air conditioned seats are great …

Excellent

2005 Toyota Avalon XLS 4dr Sedan (3.5L 6cyl 5A)

I've been driving my Avalon XLS for past 4 yrs. Already put 95,00 miles on it. It drives more than a Lexus,280 HP - decent power and great fuel efficiency (I've got once close 32 mpg).

Best car I've ever had

2005 Toyota Avalon Limited 4dr Sedan (3.5L 6cyl 5A)

I've had this car 26 months now and have had no mechanical problems. Replaced the tires and brakes and regular maintenance. Very fun to drive for such a large car, I'm still in my 30's and want something that carries my family comfortably and still has some power under the hood, and my Avalon has it all. Paint seems to be thin though, and has small rust spots in places, even though I …
