For Sale is a 1997 Toyota Avalon. I am the third owner. I purchased it in 2004 and bought it from a guy who had bought it from his sister. It has more than 205,000 miles and counting (it is still a daily driver). It starts with zero issue and has been frequently driven from Chicago to Indianapolis or St. Louis with no issues or reservations about the car making the trip. I recently replaced the rear 2 tires and the front 2 have only 10,000 miles on them. The car has been routinely taken in for service (i.e. oil change) and has 1 year old brakes and steering. I put in a new stereo, which is nice. It allows you to play music through a memory stick, android and/or iphone. There are 2 usb connections (1 in dash and 1 in the glove box) and 1 aux jack for a 3.5mm input connection. There is an issue with the exhaust. A new "down pipe" is needed. In layman's terms, at idle, the car is a little loud, on the interstate, you can't tell that there is any problem at all. If I was going to keep the car, I would have it fixed, but I am not going to keep the car.I am selling this car because I am old enough to have a nicer car. As much as I love this vehicle, I drive too many people around for work to shuttle them around in a 15 year old car. It just runs, and I love it for that, but it is time. I have absolute confidence that you can drive this car wherever. Everything works, air conditioning, power everything, heat, steering... No warning lights are on. I can provide more pictures if you would like. I live in the Logan Square area of Chicago (California and Diversey). Please let me know if you have any questions. The car is sold as is and I will help you arrange shipping, but I do not have the resources or network to provide shipping. I am a 15 minute L train ride from Chicago's O'Hare airport and a 45 minute train ride from Midway airport.
