You probably have not heard of a Toyota car that flopped, a clunker in the market, so to speak. This can be due to Toyota's excellent marketing strategies or simply, to Toyota's high level of expertise and dedication to what it does. From being the largest Japanese auto maker, Toyota has now become America's third largest auto maker and one of the biggest and the well-known in the world.

Here's a brief insight on the Toyota Avalon model and its latest edition, the 2006 Toyota Avalon.

Toyota Avalon

Toyota Avalon is one of Toyota's best passenger cars; in fact, Toyota's flagship family sedan. It is a full-size car, first introduced in 1994 as an early 1995 model. This front wheel drive four door sedan is produced in United States and in Australia.

Originally, the Avalon was based on the technology of the Toyota Camry, also a popular model from Toyota. Its counterparts in the market include the Buick Park Avenue and LeSabre, Pontiac Bonneville, and Dodge Intrepid.

2006 Toyota Avalon

Competitively vying in the full-size sedan market is the 2006 Toyota Avalon. Much of its styling and features are taken from last year's completely redesigned models. As expected, this year's Toyota Avalon features the latest technology in safety, fuel efficiency and performance.

The cabin is quite comfortable and spacious, lavished with high quality features such as the perforated leather-trimmed seats and ergonomically designed controls. The serene interior complements well 2006 Toyota Avalon's perfectly tuned suspension, its quiet but powerful double-overhead-cam 3.5 L V6 engine and its smooth electronically controlled five-speed automatic transmission.

Avalon is not extravagant in terms of styling, as most luxury cars are; however, its sleek and more contemporary styling gives it a sophisticated and elegant look you cannot simply ignore. Among its exterior highlights are the well-designed tall deck, large Toyota taillights, dual exhaust outlets, sporty Toyota wheels, and horizontal Toyota grille with chrome-accented bars.

The New 2006 Buick Lucerne

The venerable Buick Park Avenue is no more, having been replaced by the all new Buick Lucerne, a down market version of the Cadillac DTS. With a 275-hp Northstar V8 engine, the Lucerne becomes the first Buick car in nearly ten years to arrive equipped with a V8. The entire Buick line up is in the process of being overhauled, so let's take a look at this make's newest flagship and see how it plays a part in GM's overall strategy.

If you are a fan of the Buick brand you have witnessed your fair share of changes over the past five years. Gone are the Park Avenue, LeSabre, Century, and Regal, and in its place are the Rendezvous, the Rainier, LaCrosse, Terrazza, and the Lucerne. All the changes are the result of General Motors' broad realignment strategy in the wake of retiring the Oldsmobile brand, lifting Saturn into the fold, and setting strategy to compete against the nonstop onslaught of foreign brands including Toyota, Lexus, Nissan, and Infiniti.

One look at the Buick and you will notice a strong resemblance to the Cadillac DTS. The Buick's oval grille sets it apart from the Cadillac's firm nose, but a cursory examination of the body lines tells you that these cars are in fact twins. In the past, Buicks were essentially "stripped down" versions of Cadillacs, while Oldsmobile and Pontiac were more luxurious or sportier versions of Chevrolet models. Clearly, GM is repositioning Buick to have a more distinct "near luxury" look without stepping on Cadillac's toes, while giving the Buick division a much needed replacement for the aging Park Avenue.

For the car shopper, the Lucerne is value priced, arriving at in showrooms at just under 27K. With a standard 3.8 V6, the automaker can claim decent fuel mileage of 19 mpg city and 28 mpg highway. In these days of hyped up gas prices, favorable fuel economy is a keen marketing tool, but expect many buyers to opt for the ultra powerful Northstar V8 instead. Why? Because, if they want to purchase a Buick, they likely will want the power to go along with the luxury. It remains to be seen how well the V6 operates in a car that is 203 inches long and weighing in at nearly two tons.

Standard equipment for the Lucerne includes the following: power windows, door locks, and mirrors; side curtain air bags for the front seat; theft deterrent system; OnStar; keyless entry; and more.

The optional equipment list is expansive and can easily drive the starting price of the top of the line CSX to over 35K. For that price you receive heated power seats with lumbar support; a memory package that adjusts the seats, mirrors, radio, and climate control to each driver's specifications; sport leather steering wheel with built in controls; and more.

A fully loaded Lucerne is still several thousand dollars less than the DTS, making the Lucerne a value leader in the luxury car category. Still, Buick has its work cut out for it as competition from foreign brands including Acura, BMW, and Lexus continue to hammer away at GM's "near luxury" division. Fortunately, quality levels for all Buicks remain very high so combining that level of success with a strong price may help the Lucerne compete admirably.
