2007 Toyota Avalon Sedan Touring 4dr Sedan (3.5L 6cyl 5A)
280K MIles and Very Relieable
 I have owned a 2007 Touring model for 3 years.  I purchased with 180K miles after my Lexus LS430 was totaled.  I looked at a number of Avalons but did not want to spend over $10K for a lower mileage one because I drive over 30K miles per year.  I bought this specific car thinking that I might drive it for a year while I looked for another LS430.  I love the handling and comfort of this car. It does not ride as soft as the LS but it easier to drive because it just soaks up the miles without much steering correction.  I tried the Limited model first but found the cooled seats were not as comfortable as those without this feature.  I specifically looked for a model that did NOT have the sunroof as this feature limits headroom (I'm 6'2") and need the extra 3" or so that models without the sunroom have.  I have put a new battery and brakes on this car.  Those have been the only repairs in 100K miles.  No check engine lights.  No weird noises.  Great acceleration.  This is a roomy car with a huge back seat.  It's not fair to compare with the LS 430 that costs twice as much but there are some areas that seem to not be as nice-like the trunk carpet and trim.  Overall, this has been a great used car for us-I would purchase again and recommend to anyone looking for a large dependable sedan.  Because everyone wants an SUV these tend to be lower priced on the used market (compared to SUV's) and make a great buy for people looking for reasonable transportation.
