VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: FOR SALE IS THIS VERY NICE CLASSIC 1997 TOYOTA AVALON XL, WITH A NICE POWERFUL, FUEL EFFICIENT 3.0 LIT. V6 ENGINE, WITH ONLY 136,000 ORIGINAL MILES. THE CAR RUNS VERY STRONG. ITS QUIET, HAS GREAT PULL AND ACCELERATION. IT IS TRULY A FUN CAR TO DRIVE AS A DAILY DRIVER. VERY ROOMY AND QUIET RIDE. ITS INCREDIBLY RELIABLE AS MOST OF THESE OLDER TOYOTAS ARE KNOWN TO BE;AND THIS ONE IS NO EXCEPTION. I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE FROM THE 2ND OWNER, WHO WAS A CLOSE FRIEND OF THE FAMILY. WE'VE OWNED THE VEHICLE FOR A LITTLE OVER A YEAR AND HAVE NOT HAD ANY MECHANICAL ISSUES WITH THE CAR. THE CAR HAS ALWAYS BEEN WELL MAINTAINED AND TAKEN CARE OF, HAVING JUST DONE A FULL SERVICE ON THE CAR ABOUT 2 MONTHS AGO, WHICH INCLUDED: NEW SYNTHETIC OIL CHANGE. NEW FILTERS, SPARK PLUGS, BRAND NEW CATALYTIC CONVERTER, ECT.. SUSPENSION IS GREAT ON THE CAR, VERY TIGHT AS ARE THE BRAKES AND ALIGNMENT. CAR DOES NOT SHAKE ON THE FREEWAY. THERE ARE NO OIL LEAKS ON THE CAR WHATSOEVER, AND DOES NOT OVERHEAT OR STUTTER. NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON OR ANY OTHER CLUSTER/DASH LIGHTS ON. NO RATTLES OR WEIRD NOISES. AC BLOWS VERY COLD. HEATER AND DEFROST BOTH WORK VERY WELL. AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION SHIFTS VERY SMOOTH ON ALL GEARS. CAR COMES WITH RECENT CLEAN VEHICLE HISTORY, CURRENT SMOG PASS CERTIFICATE, AND REGISTRATION THAT EXPIRES IN MID OCTOBER OF 20017. THE VEHICLE DOES HOLD A SALVAGE TITLE DUE TO A THEFT/VANDALISM THAT OCCURRED UNDER PREVIOUS OWNER. THERE IS NO STRUCTURAL DAMAGE ON THE FRAME OF THE CAR AND IT HAS NEVER BEEN IN A MAJOR ACCIDENT. THE COLOR OF THE CAR IS FORREST GREEN WHICH IS STILL SHINY THROUGHOUT, WITH SOME MINOR FADING ON THE REAR DRIVER SIDE QUARTER PANEL, BUT NOT MUCH ELSE. THE BODY IS STILL STRAIGHT FOR THE MOST PART, ALTHOUGH THERE IS ON SMALL DENT ON THE LOWER DRIVER SIDE REAR QUARTER PANEL, AND ANOTHER SMALL DENT ON THE REAR PASSENGER SIDE DOOR(BOTH OF WHICH CAN BE SEEN IN THE PICTURES AND COULD BE EASILY TAKEN OFF BY A PROFESSIONAL AND REPAINTED). THE INTERIOR IS A DARK KHAKI COLOR LEATHER AND IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION WITH NO TEARS ON THE SEATS, OR CRACKS ON DASH AND IS SMOKE FREE. CARPETING AND WOOD GRAIN ACCENTS ARE ALSO IN VERY GOOD CONDITION. THE CAR HAS 4 BRAND NEW MATCHING HANKOOK TIRES WITH ABOUT 85% THREAD ON THEM. EVERYTHING ELECTRICAL WORKS;WINDOWS,LOCKS WORK AND POWER SEATS WORK PERFECTLY. COMES WITH A BRAND NEW CD PLAYER AND DOOR PANEL SPEAKERS. OVERALL, THE CAR IS STOCK AND ALL ORIGINAL. IT IS IN GREAT RUNNING CONDITION AND AS I STATED BEFORE, HAS NEVER GIVEN US ANY PROBLEMS, ALWAYS BEEN INCREDIBLY RELIABLE TO OUR FAMILY, BOTH AS A LOCAL COMMUTER AND ON LONG TRIPS. . I WOULD ALSO ENCOURAGE ANY ONE WHO IS SERIOUSLY INTERESTED IN MAKING AN OFFER ON THIS CAR OR IS CONSIDERING BUYING IT AND LIVES IN THE LOS ANGELES AREA TO COME SEE AND DRIVE THE CAR PRIOR TO BUYING.
