I have a 2007 Toyota Avalon Limited. It has just over 250K miles and still RUNS and DRIVES well. It has the FUEL EFFICIENCY of a 4 cylinder if driven conservatively, which I do most of the time and it has the POWER of a V8 when I put the PEDAL to the METAL.

250K is about HALF WAY what you could expect, The "Older" Avalons, and same vintage Lincoln Town Cars are THE luxury cars to buy used, A Benz or a Bimmer are MONEY PITS, These are NOT!

My college roommate has a 2006 Avalon Limited we bought in Charlotte, NC with 130k for only 5,000 absolute steal for the features and it’s still really fast! (I say we because I helped him find the car and look after it for him during breaks)

08/29/23. I just purchased an '06 Limited w/107K on it. Very well maintained ! The only thing I don't really care for is the light butterscotch colored wood grain inlays.

Just wanted to drop a comment. I had an 06 and actually the adaptive system in the older avalons are laser based. In ideal conditions it's actually more accurate than radar based systems buy the downside is when it is foggy or raining the laser systems do not work well, which is why they switched to radar based systems later on. My Avalon had a ton of chips in the sensor so it wasn't super reliable but boy when it worked it was so relaxing and relieved a lot of the stress of driving on the interstate. Kudos to Toyota for adopting this technology very early on and making it affordable, and also pioneering standard safety systems.

@jessefloyd48353 жыл бұрын
@@kiwiinterstates3190 take a look at the laser module bottom passenger side and see if it has any buildup or hazing. Also mine had the issue where it was aimed slightly too high so it only worked super close. I replaced the steering wheel and that took it out all the way for some reason so I didn't have adaptive cruise the last 3 months that I owned it

@@jessefloyd4835 weird because on the highway a few weeks ago when traffic suddenly put the brakes on in front of me I got a warning sound and the car automatically put them on for me before I couldn’t even react! So something was working then. But generally cruising it doesn’t keep distance. I’ll have a look at the module over the weekend thanks!

When I hear "old school" to describe an '06 ANYTHING, It makes me feel REAL old, LOL. Hell, I already had a "smartphone" THREE YEARS before this car was made! (Palm Treo 600, Take THAT Apple!). Either way the Avalon is one hell of a bargain, A Lexus with a Toyota price! VERY NICE cars!

Avalons have been referred to as "Japanese Buicks", This IS NOT a "diss", Back "in the day", A Buick was a luxury brand for those who HAD money, but didn't want to "show off". (Fun Fact: Some Buicks cost MORE than Cadillacs in certain years.) It's a way to get all the "goodies" without looking "ostentatious". In a cool way, Toyota subtly acknowledges the "Japanese Buick" aspect of the Avalon in naming the highest trim level "Limited", "Limited" was Buick's highest trim level name for decades.
