2013 Toyota Avalon Sedan XLE Premium 4dr Sedan (3.5L 6cyl 6A)
Best car I have ever had
 I can't believe I'm doing this.  First because I can't believe I'm actually saying it's the "best" car I've ever had, since I've had some really cool cars in my life.  My first was a  new '68 Chevy Nova in High School (Class of '70), then a  '74 Chevelle convertible after college, An AMC Javelin muscle car, 76 Lincoln Continental, 78 Mazda RX 4 with rotary engine, then a 79, RX4 with more luxury features and killer stereo...skip to 2007 after a variety of other cars from Pontiac Grand Am to Chrysler LeBaron Coupe, when it got the big upgrade in 88-89.  But it was the 2007 Acura TL, that held the title for my favorite car until I had to trade it in.  That is when I first saw the 2013 Avalon.  It was superior in every way, from touch panel controls to exterior design, to trunk room that reminds you of the old cartoon with Bugs Bunny, who enters what looks like a tiny tent on the outside, but is palace size inside.  It fooled me as the Audi A7 from the side and the elongated roof line that disguises that deep trunk and big back seat with plenty of leg room for everyone but an NBA star.  Every detail is really, not kidding, just....well...gorgeous!  It has been a long time when I have muttered to myself after returning home from a store run-"I LOVE this car!"  Sorry Lexus, your Star Wars, radically angled, immense, radiator cover design is so ugly to me that I couldn't buy one.  The only thing worse, in my opinion, is anything with the Buick name on it!  Talk about ugly!  They are right about "it sure doesn't look like a Buick!"  From the company that gave us the Riviera, possibly the most beautiful car GM ever made, it sure doesn't look like a Buick-"Oh, My!".   Just a little out of my league in 6th grade to High School Jr.  We never had anything like the Avalon, except in magazines with designs of "CARS OF THE FUTURE".  The Avalon, from front lights to rear lights, interior dashboard and audio, style and quality is superb and the seats are MUCH more comfortable than the Acura. That said, I do have an entirely fused back, from skull to butt, that cars aren't designed for.  Somehow I am able to configure these seats without needing a pillow or other support cushion, that always had to be moved around.  I don't mean to make the Acura sound bad.  It wasn't.  It was a wonderful car.  So beautiful in its sleek, smooth, elegant, lines and legendary reliability-remember it was a 2007, that was still in great shape, until it was totaled by a friend who borrowed it.  That is when I went for a trade in.  At the Dealership I was at, looking for a newer Acura, I turned and saw the Avalon.  WHAT IS THAT? I asked.  He told me it was a Toyota.  It couldn't be.  For some reason I had never seen one of these before, which is strange, because it grabbed my attention immediately.  Which brings us to this "Testimony" of a car review.  Folks, this is NOT our parents Toyota.  At 65, I really do remember the little box-like  Volkswagen Beetles, called TOYotas-Remember?  That's what Toyotas and Datsun's (Nissan) were then.  No more!  Why oh why must it have "toy" in its name.  It doesn't have any word but "Avalon" on it, but the sedate logo is almost invisible because of the truly head turning styling, that I just can't get enough of.  Even the way they craft the rear lights into the lines of the bumper and side panels is just perfect.  I can assure you that I will want to trade this in ONLY on a newer Avalon.  I don't know how I could give a better review than this.  Further, you may look in vain for other car reviews by me from the past, since I have never done one for any company before.  Again, with cars like the first Mazda's with the new rotary engines that were wonderful, to the virtual Navy aircraft carrier, Lincoln Continental, to the Acura, I have never had a car that just has it all- beauty, performance, comfort and cutting edge technology, like the Toyota Avalon.  Hold your noses up high Jaguar or Mercedes owners, this Japanese car will give all of them a run for the money.
