The Toyota Canada site pleasantly surprised me with this useful pricing chart showing the relative price range of most of their models. It might be even more useful if it were ordered by price rather than alphabetically, so I tried it out.

I couldn't be more pleased with my 1999 Toyota Corolla 5-speed (manual transmission): no more nor less car than I need, the price was right (about US$16k in September 1999), it's given me no problems whatsoever and everything about it says "solid." I plan to drive it until Olivia Q. needs a first car in four years. Quite confident it'll still be going strong.
While I understand such things, it kinda bugs me that the Toyota matrix doesn't include Lexuses, which are Toyota products (Acura is Honda's high-end; Nissan owns Infiniti).
This sort of brand obfuscation is more a problem for auto-makers than for me: I've become a kind of Toyota evangelist, and can't do as good a job of it with a lot of identity-blurring going on. Toyotas have a stellar reputation. You'd think the company would want its many satisfied owners to know who's who when they consider trading-up.

Very nice. However, it seems that the Avalon pricing is missing from the original chart and therefore the Avalon was dropped from the reordered charts.

I have 2004 Corrola LE with all the bells
and whisles - excellent vehicle in all
but one area - the interior smells. It
has been suggested that this vehicle
was driven approx 250K, from somewhere
else, and that someone had smoked in it -
as witness the smoke pot in the console.
Some type of refresher scent appears to
have been used, which can be overpower-
ing in hot weather. Details re this,
and other concerns sent to head office
28 July - no reply. Conclusion -very
vehicle - lousy public relations. Any
others with same problems contact me.
