I wanted to ask a question about an 01 XLS Avalon I looked at today and considered buying. The car has 63k miles, runs flawlessly, ice cold air, and the leather seats were sooo much more comfortable than the 08 camry I just got rid of.
Only thing wrong with the car was it has several dings/scratches and one crease on passenger side back door. I can probably buff out most of the scratches and live with the dings. The book value on this car is 8900 in fair and 9800 in good conditiong and this one was 6000 and he would not budge off of that one penny. I would rate the body a 7-8, interior a 9 and mechanical a perfect 10.
Is there anything I need to watch out for on this car, problems for this year model (engine problems and such) and is this a good price and a good car. I have seen many of these with over 200k miles and I wanted this car to last me for at least 3 years.
When I drove it I was amazed at the comfort of the seats and the smooth V6, the seats are the reason I got rid of the 08 camry. Just wanted opinions.
Thanks
