The warranty is the weak link in the Avalon. I had to purchase an additional $2500.00 warranty just to cover the electronics and computers.

The car has a comfortable ride and gets decent MPG. Toyota could have done better with fit and finish but I guess they saved that for the Lexus ES350

Fantastic car, luxurious, fun to drive, great design inside and out. Built well, high quality. Love the chrome inside and out. Quiet cabin love XM stereo. Best car I have ever owned.

Terrible suspension

I recently bought a 2018 XLE with 34k miles on it. The steering and brakes are good, but the harsh suspension is so bad that I will hopefully trade it in for something else in a few weeks. This is not a touring model but feel like it has an F1 suspension crossed with a 20 year old utility truck that at low speeds on small bumps us unbearably annoying. Toyota what are you thinking?

My "new" used 2018 Toyota Avalon XLE is yet another reason in a long line of reasons why I'm an Avalon man. This is just a great car at a great value.
