Isn’t it time that you step up to the new Toyota Avalon. I myself owned a 1995 Toyota Avalon, and then purchased a 1997 Toyota Avalon a few years later because I liked the new red color; but now I am just chomping at the bit to put myself into the driver’s seat of a 2005 Toyota Avalon. I mean I have been the proud owner of a used Toyota Avalon for long enough; I think it is time for an upgrade. But wait a minute here; 2006 is just around the corner, perhaps I can find myself strolling along side the Toyota Avalon new inventory here in a few months if I just execute a little patience. Yes, that is exactly what I am going to do; put a new 2006 Toyota Avalon into my driveway.
Looking over the 2006 Toyota Avalon reviews it is clear that there is but few Toyota Avalon problems in general. I did see mention on a discussion board on a customer or two who had difficulties with their Toyota Avalon window motor, but it was under warranty and everything was taken care of correctly and promptly. I later found with other expert opinion that the power windows were actually rather quirky; so I do see this as a possible recall candidate for the future, but certainly no reason to count the Avalon out of your purchasing plans. That is because the Toyota Avalon parts they go into each of these cars are inspected and manufactured with very high standards as compared to a few other car companies that I will leave nameless.
One of the cool features today is XM radio which will not be available as a standard feature, so I guess I will have to learn how to hook up XM radio in a Toyota Avalon. But I guess that is what the Internet is for; it can’t be that hard after all. I do have the option of the towing package which I will take advantage of, and the heated seats for the front are another absolute necessity for the winters in my area. Depending on the trim package you decide on, many great features will be standard equipment which will make your decisions on features even easier for you.
The best feature of the new Avalon is one that I will probably not get to enjoy much, but my passengers sure will, is the limo-like rear seats. They are classy, roomy, comfortable, and rather plush. This car is truly designed with the comfort level of all its passengers in mind, which is rare indeed these days. But of course the classier you want to go the more green you are going to have to fork out in the end.
The base model of Toyota Avalon will run you about $25,000; but if you start adding on all the great goodies, gadgets, and features, before you know it you will be up to about $45,000. This is unfortunately about the price I will be looking at, as these new features are just too good to pass up. I am talking about a navigation system, traction control, stability control, and yes the limited edition touring trim which is not only easy on the eyes but even easier on your rear.
But wait, if I can wait long enough for the 2006; what about the 2007 Toyota Avalon; I mean I have heard rumours of an even punchier engine than the 268 horsepower version… decisions, decisions!
