beautifil!i was waiting to see what one fixed up would look like but this, by far, exceeds any expectations i had. i always thought the avalon's were nice but it's kinda in a market where id rather get a lexus for the price plus i don't get why they would build an entirely new car for the us market when they coulda just sent over the crown or any of there other full size sedans. do you know if it rwd?

That's the best Avalon I've ever seen. It's like US style VIP

BTW, is the Crown a luxury version of the Avalon,? Is the Avalon RWD?

Avalon is still FWD. Avalon has nothing to do with the JDM crown. the crown is a bigger RWD luxury car similar to the current LS430 (and the japanese variant of which i forgot).

thanks. and a sexy subtle bodykit i might add. a wonder why this line was never introduced as a lexus over here (besides the fact that it would eat some LS400/430 sales).

man toyota has so many different cars for every auto class, it's crazy. japan auto manufacturers in general, make so many different cars all for the same market. they even use the same chassis, like the nissan y33 gloria, y33 cedric, y33 cima, all similar in size.

As much as I like CF, that hood looks out of place on a VIP styled car...

Thats just the thing, Its not VIPstyle. Its the US VIP style. Thats how many Euro's look when they do the VIP style here in the US. That is not the true Japanese VIPstyle. But i think it looks good. Im just waiting for air runner to make a kit for the new avalon.
