Pleased With My First Toyota

My first Toyota and I'm very pleased with this car. Lots of upgrades and gadgets make this a fun car to drive and show off. Was considering Lexus IS, but back seat, even though I don't use a lot, was too small to compromise. Others: Chrysler 300 and Cadi CTS just didn't have all the extras for such a great price. Gas mileage first 2000 miles is 25-27 combined and 33 straight highway. Accelerates nicely/brakes well. Nav system is fun and useful, but the toggle/select button makes it so frustrating. Laser cruise control is the best feature. Keyless entry/start is beneficial as well as fun to demonstrate. Seats are hard and I'd do without the vent/heat to soften them up (if given the choice).

Not Impressed so far!

Bought the top of the line Limited model with all the bells and whistles except for NAV which I find useless. The engine is pretty quick and the interior room is good. I was dismayed to find after the first month that the transmission was leaking on my garage floor. Thankfully the dealer fixed that. The car handles well but is noisier than expected. I also think the trunk is too small and find it incredible that Toyota doesn't install some kind of exterior door protection trim molding on a 36K car! I'm also not overly fond of the light fake wood but I do like the silver accents.

After having the Mazda 626 (2000) the Avalon Limited is quite a jump. The jump has been good I find the interior to be roomy and comfortable. The car is big. While it isn't a sports car, it is nimble. Noise is very low The rear seating room is immense. Control location for driver is convenient.

I started my search for a new vehicle by looking at the Infiniti M35. I test drove that car along with the Audi A6, the Acura RL and TL and even a couple of Cadillacs and they were all very nice cars. But the Avalon was not even on my radar screen until I parked next to one at church one day. After looking it up on the internet, I found out the reason it wasn't included in my searches was that it didn't cost enough! After driving it and seeing how much more room it had than any of the others I had looked at I bought it immediately and have been tremendously happy with it and the $10,000 I saved ever since.
