    Yeah... I'd totally roll that. Toyotas car designs are really looking nice the past few years.... they have come a long way.

    I hate the huge grilles they are putting on cars lately. The new Lexus models (Lexi?) are the worst. Looks like the car has a massive overbite or something.

    I agree. Although they look nice I think on the sports coupes.

    Nice car. I would certainly drive it. I don't like the grill though.

    Yeah, I think that's pretty damn cool. It could be that I've been playing way too much Forza Horizon 4 though...

    I just can't own a FWD car. If it was AWD or RWD sign me up. Wish Toyota would make a real sports sedan.

    It might actually move in the car though.

    It would be badass if they put that 4.6 L V-8 in it and made it RWD

    No matter what the motor, front wheel drive kills it. Plus, Avalon's have horrific resale value.

    Yep - that’s why I drive the GS350 (FSport)!
    The Luxury in them is pretty remarkable. (The Sport++ mode is also badass and adjusts the dampening on the shocks, and changes the steering wheel feeling)
    :D
    As long as we always have 2 other 4wd vehicles, our fun/nice car will always be RWD.
    Hell - even in the crazy rain we get here, the RWD GS350 gets up and moves more than you’d expect before traction control kicks in. I’d only consider FWD or AWD if I lived in an area that snowed quite a bit and I could only own one vehicle.

    For the record - that’s a badass Avalon.
    The grill could be a little smaller though.
    :thumbsup:

    Ditto on FWD, but on the resale - it sucked because they used to be ugly years ago. They stepped it up the past few years.

    I wish they’d change the SUV’s. Just scale them back some so they don’t overtake the entire front end.

    Maybe in your state, but CA resale value is great. Have had Toyota dealers literally begging me to sell my car to them because people been asking for used Avalons.
