Replying to: poley (Jun 15, 2009 4:14 pm) Either run the other way or have them fix it and then take another test drive before making an offer.

Replying to: cueball13tp (Jun 25, 2009 7:09 pm) Because there are not a lot of Avalons available now and it appears the model will not change for 2010, you would do well if you get 8-10% off the MSRP.
#1460 of 1474 2008 Avalon Touring by toyotron Jul 01, 2009 (10:22 pm)
Has anyone got a good deal on a 2008 Avalon Touring recently? I saw a couple of dealers around Houston advertising $19900 for those with around 35k miles on them. Is this a good deal? Should I try initial offer of $18000 or is that too low? Thanks in advance.

Replying to: toyotron (Jul 01, 2009 10:22 pm) When i was looking for a 2008, in the beginning of this year, i saw a lot for about $24k with less than 30k miles. I ended up buying a '08 Limited with 18k miles for $24500.   I think $18k would be a good offer to start with.

Replying to: saj2 (Jul 02, 2009 4:37 am) No sure how your numbers can help us. Did you buy from a Certified Toyota dealer? Location? Replies to this message: toyotron (Jul 06, 2009 10:25 pm) namxleena (Jul 13, 2009 8:31 pm)

Replying to: namxleena (Jul 04, 2009 6:45 pm) I haven't made an offer yet. The car is at a dealer and in Houston, TX. Will try to get it by the end of July. I hope I can get a better deal around the end of the month since salesmen try to meet their quota for the month. I don't know if it's true in this case but doesn't hurt to try.

#1465 of 1474 Design of the Avalon by tfelton Jul 18, 2009 (12:06 pm)
I've read many times in this forum opinions concerning the design and styling of the Avalon. I bought an '08 white Limited in February of last year and, like others, I didn't particularly like the color of the grey plastic and also thought the cup holders were too big. I'll admit that grey wasn't the best choice but I've gotten used to it and I've found that the cup holders are sometimes too small. However, the criticism that I find odd is that of the body styling. Personally, when I first saw the Avalon in the showroom I fell in love with it. It has classic styling yet this is the design feature that is criticized the most. The Avalon is considered old fashioned or built for geezers. Since I've owned the Avalon I've had about a half dozen people come up to me and comment how much they like the Avalon and actually commented about what a nice looking car it is. None of them have been 'old'. The list includes parking lot attendants and kids in pickup trucks. I have never had that happen with any other car I have ever owned.

Replying to: tfelton (Jul 18, 2009 12:06 pm) I have an 09 Avalon XLS and before that owned an 03 XL which I traded in after 99,000 miles. The styling of the newer one is much more streamlined and less box like. The console with cup holders seem fine to me. Several people have told me how much they like the appearance of the car. The older Avalon had the split bench seat with power controls for both seats. It did not have a center console, and the shift was on the column. I actually prefer that option over the bucket seats and would like to see Toyota offer that option. The Avalon is a fine machine. The gas mileage is terrific for such a large car.
