 This one I'd truly classify as 
a "luxury car". In every way it meets 
that criteria. Sure, it's NO sports 
sedan in the flavor of a BMW or 
Jaguar, but then it's not even close 
to those price ranges as well. If you 
want space, this car delivers in 
spades. All in all with the comfort 
level both in the seats and on the 
road it delivers. The engine has 
plenty of passing power, yet rarely 
let's you know it's there. The utter 
quiet is a welcome pleasure, 
especially on the brutal roads of the 
Midwest. I wasn't as intrigued with 
the Avalon until I drove a XLS loaded. 
I guess I like having it all, and 
indeed this car delivers.
