In this video I take a look at a 2001 Toyota Avalon XL which is a full size car that's been in production since 1995 and is now on its 5th generation. This Avalon is the 2nd generation model that was sold from the 2000 to 2004 Model Year and was available in the base XL or upscale XLE package. In this video I do a full walk around, overview of the interior, review powertrain specs and take it for a test drive.
Thanks to Wholesale Auto Connection for the use of this vehicle:

From an artist’s perspective I think that Toyota’s designs for their luxury offerings were excellent and par-the-course around this time. Their understated, rounded, boxy shapes are very masculine and conveyed strength and dependability while also looking smooth and aerodynamic. It seems “boring” I guess but it’s exactly how I would like my ride to look: Tough and practical, but deftly elegant.

My 02 Avalon was pretty floaty around corners when I first bought it. I put new struts on that motherfucker and it’s actually pretty fucking planted. You have t take suspension wear into account when it’s an old vehicle like that.

Mike C long story, I got one as a temporary car because I was tired of driving my SUV. the guy that was selling it sold me a silver 2003 one for under $3k and it had some scratches and bumps, but not too bad. I just replaced the front rotors, got an alignment, Cabin Filter, air filter, cleaned it up nice over. It had a check engine light but drove smoothly. I drove it for a month and listed it (emphasizing the bench seat) sold it for $3k, basically broke even. But now I’m in search for one that is in good physical condition with lower miles. This is a really underrated car and generation. It’s not just for old people lol. I actually enjoy driving it more than my Jetta GLI.
