Test drive: 2005 Toyota Avalon

About Cars has six different writers, and that usually means six different opinions. But Phil and I are in perfect agreement on the redesigned Toyota Avalon: It's a Lexus wearing a Toyota badge. Check out Phil's rave review, and if you want to read more of the same (and why wouldn't you?), read my test drive. If you're shopping for a big sedan, or a luxury sedan, or a big luxury sedan, you should definitely check out the Avalon. So says me, so says Phil. And goodness knows when, or even if, that'll happen again. -- Aaron Gold
