i think that Avalon is another M45 tho~ haha

 

I work for a Toyota dealership and DAMN...that thing rides nice. Not bad for $37k fully loaded. Thats Toyotas first dual VVT-I engine and 280 hp on any Toyota car.

 

yea..it seems more related to the m45 dan the g35..

 

The G35 sedan's overall shape is very similar to the older GS - if you're in the design field, alot of us believe "there is no new design"

 

[/QUOTE]It drives like a reasonably quick but very large refrigerator. The dash is so big that you could play handball against it as you go down the road. I felt like I was driving an old-fogey car even though there was muscle available under my right foot. It was quiet and smooth, but rolled like a soft French pastry when pushed on an on-ramp.[QUOTE]

I like your similes! I've not seen the car, but now I feel I know it!

 

The Avalon has had those design tailights since 2000 or so, so the G35 clearly took those.
Outside of that, I don't think the cars look similar and I can't see anyone mistaking one for the other. The Avalon is a big car.

 

I agree

 

True, but then again, those style of taillights were first seen on the e46 bmw 3 series. So that would be in 98'.
