Went from a Camry to Avalon. I loved the Camry but won't go back now. Very happy. Avalon is so much bigger, drives like a dream. A real luxury car.

Just picked up the XL in Silver Pine Mica for the wife. The quality and comfort are great! The only option we got were the 6 CD and the floor mats. But who could tell it was a base model with all the features for the price.

A few problems

I'm really surprised at this car. It looked great, and the professional reviews were AWESOME. But I've had problems -- lots of minor ones. I wonder if the magazine reviewers get specially prepped cars from Toyota? My Avy has transmission hesitation, a few squeaks and the front windshield now that it is cold CAN NOT stay free of ice or snow. In Iowa, that's a BIG problem. I find the front seats uncomfortable for longer trips. The back seats are nicer.

Loss of engine oil with no warning light

I purchased my car almost 3 yrs ago, everything was great until it reached 33000 miles; suddenly the engine produced loud noise, it was a complete loss of engine oil with no warning light in the dashboard. The dealer was very familiar with the problem before I even spoke. He asked me if it was the loss of engine oil. I would like Toyota to look into this problem. Otherwise the car is great and I love it.
