Good catch, looking at those pictures makes it very evident this is the old Avalon. Amazing how hideous they managed to make it!!!   I still dont see why the Crown concept on www.toyota.com cant be a viable option/possibilty.   ~alpha
#62 of 14780 Crown Concept by rctennis3811 Dec 31, 2003 (12:42 pm)
Though it may be the next Avalon, it may not be. It may just be the new US Toyota Crown. But that doesn't exactly mean it is coming here. First, I don't think Toyota would like to lure customers away from the upcoming GS. The new Crown in Japan shares many parts with the Aristo. They also have the same engines and same V8s available. The interior look too nice, even for Toyota. But, you never know what's going to happen!
#63 of 14780 Avalon to remain by smu1976 Jan 01, 2004 (7:15 pm)
Avalon is the only car that Toyota does not have to offer any rebates or special finance deals on to the public. Go into a dealer, all the specials don't apply to Avalon (rebates, finance deals). The car is a winner, good profit maker, with little need to over advertise or market. Consumer Reports does a fine job of this for them. Toyota will soon displace one of the big three this year. Fleets are buying in droves over Ford's and Chevy. They won't let this model go. Great resale, great warranty, great dependability. This is their new niche. Love my 2004. Style is somewhat dated, drives like a DeVille, but Toyota will keep upgrading and improving the style. Its a nice cush mobile, great company car! My choice was Avalon, Chrysler 300M, Pontiac Bonnevile or a Ford Explorer (through my employer leasing company). Also the Cadi CTS was in there, but the company thought it was too showy (the lease was less than Avalon). Had to go with the Avalon. Would have took the Caddy if they let me. Good ride to give to the kids when done. After learining the GPS, its great. I'm 46, and feel like the target market may be a bit older, but I still love it, probably be 56 when it leaves the house.
#64 of 14780 toyota special deals by sparky53 Jan 01, 2004 (7:47 pm)
Hi smu 1976,Toyota does give special deals on the Avalon.Igot o% for 36 months on my 03 last year.

Thats a very broad (and incorrect) statement about Toyota and incentives. Depending on region, time of year, market conditions, and model... Toyota may or may not offer incentives.   ~alpha
#66 of 14780 Avalon at the Auto shows for 2005? by cove148 Jan 11, 2004 (8:27 am)
Anyone have seen or have updated information on what the 2005 Avalon will look like and feature?
#67 of 14780 actually by alpha01 Jan 11, 2004 (8:44 am)
Its the other way around, Japan gets a reskinned version of the Avalon, which was designed and originally developed for the American market. The new Avalon will be on the current generation Camry platform, whereas the current Avalon is on the 97-01 Camry platform (which itself was a pretty extensive revision of the 92-96 version of the Camry).   ~alpha
#68 of 14780 What about Chicago & New York... by wsag26 Jan 11, 2004 (3:14 pm)
Is Toyota going to save anything for Chicago or New York? To make it more exciting (since I go to N.Y. every year) it makes sense that Toyota might showcase it. You're probably saying.. .how did you know that? Well, look what happened. The Aveo was released at Chicago, and I got no word once so ever that it was coming or going to be released there. We wouldn't of known...
#69 of 14780 Hmmn. by alpha01 Jan 11, 2004 (3:25 pm)
I'm guessing not that many people care about the Aveo. Except Enterprise Rental, whose Aveos (two of 'em) are the only ones Ive seen on the road here in Central Jersey.   There is a new Tacoma that Toyota will need to debut SOMEWHERE, given that Nissan just released the skinny on the new Frontier. Redesigns for Corolla, Camry, and Avalon (along with Hondas Civic and Accord) are typically hush-hush, with little autoshow fanfare.   ~alpha
#70 of 14780 Speaking of the Crown by motownusa Jan 15, 2004 (5:46 pm)
I just returned from a two week vacation (Christmas and New Year) in Singapore. Over there the Crown is considered a status symbol. The Crown Majesta comes with the same 4.3L V8 found in the Lexus LS430 and GS430. All other Crown models come with the 3.0 Liter Inline 6 found in the Lexus IS and GS300. The Majesta is rated at 270 Hp while the six cylinder versions are rated at 220 Hp. My uncle, who lives in Singapore owns a Majesta. Beautiful car. Wonder why Toyota doesn't see it fit to sell it here?
