My Savannah Toyota Dealership prior to getting the color keyed mud flaps had the black ones painted at the dealership and warranted them under the general Toyota Warranty. So check with your own dealership.

Hi Max,
 
I'm afraid that the photo you mention in post #5197 is still not visible to anyone (except for yourself, because the original file resides in your computer). As per Pat (HOST)'s clarification in post #5196, the original photo has to reside in a website, and what you insert in your message between the "Img" icons, is a link to that existing photo/file in another website. In an earlier message Pat indicated how you can upload your own files to a website.
 
Sorry again, and best wishes,
 
havalongavalon
 
By the way, although I could not see the photo I think I know what "L-shaped black thing" you are asking about, and I also don't know what they are (possibly related to the reclining seats?).

He posted it right - I saw it earlier, but I agree, it's not displaying now. He has it hosted on a yahoo page which may be having a problem. Or it may just be timing out, sometimes those pages are terribly slow.

Do you have any particular take on the base stereo system? Vs the JBL? I'm actually here in Mexico for the next few weeks, been here since Jan 1, so haven't actually seen (or heard) the new Avalon.
 
I am afraid that I haven't actually heard either of the systems, and I don't know anything about the base audio system. But, I imagine that the JBL Synthesis system is probably very impressive. I can say this because this audio system uses a digital signal processing algorithm known as Logic 7 to essentially "fake" surround sound. It also turns out that the parent company of JBL is Harmon (also the parent company of: Harmon/Kardon). And, I actually happen to have a Harmon/Kardon receiver that supports Logic 7. For all my regular CDs I have Logic 7 enabled, because I find it to be very compelling. In fact, it's the best sorround DSP that I know of.
 
Now, If you happen to have a lot of DVD-Audio (DVD-A) discs laying around, you might want to consider looking at the ESS audio system in the Acuras (I remember seeing a link somewhere that ranked their system as the best of all audio systems in all cars -- including the Mark Levinson system you can get in the new Lexus ES, GS and LS models. Frankily, though, I imagine that most people will probably just appreciate a system that will play their CDs in pseudo-sorround sound (which Logic 7 does so well). And for folks who have invested in the Multi-channel Super Audio CD (SACD) format, like me, the last thing we'd want is support for a competing sorround CD format in the car.

Our 2005 Avalon... by just__me

RONN WHERE ARE YOUToyota Avalon is the hot sedan this year, and is one fantastic car. The Avalon is taking sales away from nearly every domestic maker. Chrysler's 300c is losing a few sales, Buick is dropping even further and Ford's 500 barely got out of the gate. Even the folks who might have looked at Lexus, Cadillac or Lincoln are jumping on the Avalon. It's got space, looks, power and Toyota reliability. This is the conclusion you come away with when you review all the articles including the most recent ones. So we have one great car and at a great price, whether at MSRP or below, JMHO . Enjoy your Avalon folks.

Thanks for the great advice. Once I find out for sure that Toyota isn't letting a few XL orders slip through with the JBL, I'll have to look at the Touring.

The Toyota Platinum 7yr/100K miles/0 deductible warranty varies from a low of 985 USD to 1,650 USD. Depending on where you buy from. Dealers set the price for whatever they want, it is a great money maker.
 
I originally paid 1,450 for mine, a $200 "discount" from my dealership. Within 2 weeks I found the $985 from Greenfield Toyota in Mass. I went back to my dealer and they said, "Oh Well" I cancelled through TFS and rebought from Greenfield.
 
Teach them "Oh Well"

"Anyone have the insight on where you can get original Toyota parts (accessories) for less than what your local dealership charges? I have purchased parts for my Infiniti from a dealer via the web at prices well below what my local dealer was charging. Looking at getting the rear spoiler and mud guards for a 2005 Avalon. Thanks."
 
Try a search on Toyota Parts World, they are a dealership out of Havermill, Mass. I have bought several items, mostly filters, for my other Toyotas from them. I'd post the actual link but das ist Verboten! They have been reliable and well priced.
