You may have to look around. I factory ordered an Avalon in 2001. Took a trip to 3 dealers in Albany NY area before I found one who was not too lazy to order what I wanted. Took 3 months before it arrived.

Toyota has not changed that process. In recently looking for a particular interior and exterior color, the dealer showed me the build matrix from Toyota covering the next quarter. There was exactly one car going to be built in that quarter with my color combination. He said there i snot such things as custom ordering a Toyota like you can with a Ford or GMC product.

Yes, Toyota dealers talk about "ordering" but I believe this doesn't mean the same thing it does with U.S. makes. They can't actually "order" the factory to build a specific car. I believe they write a sales order for your spec car and start watching for it on the build schedule. When they find it, they attempt to snag it for you and if they are succesful you are told that your "order" is about to be filled and given a firm delivery date. If the desired car doesn't show up on the build schedule and you get tired of waiting, they tell you "the factory is backlogged" and let you cancel the sales order.
 
I'd love to be wrong about this, but what I've read indicates I'm not. So if you do get into "ordering" an Avalon please dig into this and let us know what actually happens.

2007 Avalon XLS- Blizzard Pearl by mahenn45

Hi,
We purchased a 2007 XLS last Friday for $30069 OTD. We live in Greenville,SC. The vehicle comes with Toyogaurd even though we were not interested in that. Since wife was very keen on the color(it was a nightmare trying to get this color and took almost a month and the dealer had to speacial order it). Even though we struck the deal last Friday, we will take delivery this Friday after Thanksgiving. SC is having a no sales tax on Nov 24th and Nov 25th, th dealer mentioned that if we pick it up that day we would save about $400 in taxes- so bottom line, the Toyogaurd was 679-400 = $269

Purchased my new 07 Avalon Ltd w/Nav - online
After researching on Edmunds/KBB I pushed for & got $33,800(including destination)! Brought the car from Auburn Toyota(Northern California) -transaction was smooth, sales people honest-no games! Great Experience... Elk Grove Toyota & Roseville Toyota also offered to match that price!

Differences between 06 and 07 Avalon by tammyl

Looking to purchase a Aval real soon. What are the major differences between 06 and 07? Does any one know if I can get a good deal with 06? I live in Atlanta so the dealers usually don't give as good of deals as they do in California. Anyone recently buy one in the Atlanta area? If so could you share prices. Thanks so much
