Avalon Xls 97 Or Es

[akewlguy]

Anyone own an Avalon XLS. Thinking this is the car with all the goods for a fair price.

Any opinion? Checked out this carfax... Concers are below. Of course my LS was in two minor accidents and it is fine now, so it happens. NYC is bad for a car.

What about the ES?

Avalon was crap.

We are looking into the Audi quatro or the BMW3 or 5 with 80k. Wish me luck!

If you are going for an Avalon, go for the '98+....they look so much better than the first half of that gen. ;) I think they are one of the only Toyotas that you can find with bench seats too--it's very rare to see in a Japanese car! Also, I'd run the opposite directo of a company/rental car. . .

Thanks for all the information.

I am not in a rush so maybe I will wait till I see another deal on the LS400. So far I have put about 17,000 highway miles on mine and it has been a wonderful experience!

Maybe I should be smart and get the ES. :)
