1997 Toyota Avalon XLS review from North America
"This is a comfortable and reliable luxury car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Rack and pinion steering disintegrated, and a fix with re-conditioned parts will be $1100.
General comments?
This is a very reliable car.
The six cylinder engine provides smooth acceleration with little or no jerking.
The back seat area is comfortably roomy and can seat people over six feet with plenty of space for head and legs.
