Roadfly.com - 2009 Toyota Venza Car Review

[pryncessable]

Awesome-rific! I now drive Toyota Camry XLE V6, next ride definately a Venza V6 same color in video. Toyota cars are good with gas, and parts are affordable. Lov it! @ roadflytv Thanks for posting,informative commentary, good job! High five! PS I love to eat and drink, so am lovin the cup holders. Lots of space for my family too, even my cat. Lol

2011 model?

[soyntgo4it]

Btw Ross they didn't rate this as a car Toyota's website has labeled it as a Cross-over/Suv This is a nice Vehicle I would buy one for sure.

[LTurbide]

@MsDisney111 How long has the Avalon been available as a two door?

[airtouch01]

The Toyota Venza is very very nice..

[hehh543]

$26,000 is way to much for even a base model.. especially since they consider that a "car" What the hell!?

[spl1011]

Nice review. On point and accurate. Great to know that I am not the only one that finds it very easy to drive fast in that car!

[plgwapo12372]

The best car I ever bought! I traded my 96 4runner with 235000 miles on it on this car. Hopefully my new venza will last longer than the 4runner!

[idiotsawvfr5]

@MsDisney111 haha your telling me, its so nice lol

[1MEGASTARFOREVER]

Venza is very sexy though I feel the wheels are seriously oversized...anyway, the crosstour is no comparison, its just downright ugly starting with the grill..dont know what honda were thinking

[rivengle]

toyota is now the old ford: it's cars have become crappier, and much worse than what they used to be. and now, they have the same "shitbox" gap that ford had: it's cars suck much more here in North America than in Europe. Much, much, more.

[Episcleritis]

Great job, Ross.

[idiotsawvfr5]

@davids7319 I would definitely buy a Venza over a Sante fe, the Sante fe is outdated. The Venza feels like an Avalon with a hatch. I really like hyundai but they need to redesign the Sante fe. And the Crosstours just ugly haha

[idiotsawvfr5]

haha its nice having cup holders, my 97 avalon has only 2 poorly designed cup holders, it really does suck haha

[rowsdower12]

Is Ross still with you guys? haven't seen him lately. He's a good reviewer.

[BCCHSMD]

@davids7319 It is but don't forget that is a v6 engine. And although toyota does not classify the car as a suv it ways round 4000 pounds. The 4 cylinder to my knowledge averages 23-26 mpg in mixed driving. It hustles too.

[micjoemay02]

Venza looks awesome!  I've seen the crosstour and it's ugly looking. I've been a Toyota owner and my next target car is Venza for sure!

[GAMEOVER5917]

@Sexyboi142 Since I know from actually owning one, GMC Envoy is a one of the worst cars you can buy & it was very expensive! For the price we paid, we should have bought a Lexus RX! But oh well we own a Venza now for a year & two months & we love it!!

[sexyboi142]

crosstour seems..better than the venza and IMHO looks better

[2hisk0]

my mom just got one 2 days ago. now i just need to get the keys.

[xadam2dudex]

hmmm I thought the Venza only came in a 4 cyl version

[mucura1]

Toyota/lexus interiors are just so damn nice lately. If only they would do something about those floaty ass suspensions. They make all their cars bland to drive. If you consider your car a appliance then i guess you will have no issues but i actually enjoy driver feedback in my daily commute.

[Theparksideshow]

pushing a little to close to infinity and acura territory. lmao.....i love it

[Descartes619]

this car looks amazing. it always gets lots of attention on the road.

[yupeenjook]

man, this guy really has to do somthing for his facial expression, other then that, a good reviewer =)

[JeremyFuhenstasser]

Toyota's designs have skyrocketed ever since Hunter took over the design team. Go Hunter yo da man!

[TJC450]

I love that interior

[GAMEOVER5917]

My mom purchased a Venza back in Nov 09 & we love it! We have been on two Road trips to date & this car performs Great on the highway, it performs even better in the city! Our trade-in was a GMC Envoy(ugh worst auto we ever own out of 15), She wanted to move down to a Affordable Sedan thats was more reliable, elegant, get way Better gas mileage than the Envoy. Its drive's so much like a car(I have an IS 300) you forget about the Hatch! Love our Silver Toyota Venza!

[AdThaDon2k8]

hey like your lex this is a toyaota quite in relaible at heart

[sexyboi142]

@GAMEOVER5917 ummm the envoy is a good car 

[mithrandir10001]

We looked at one the other day. Technically, the ones in the door are just bottle holders. Just saying.

[tahj677]

I like this guy's voice. I'll buy anything he talks about.

[ralphasuncion]

@forgoten214

.... and americans are not?!! spare me with your bs

[chris6770]

Haha, aquaphoenixx, you're so right. What the hell is it with the american obsession with cupholders?? It's hilarious. Any vehicle with that as a feature is more a mobile diner than a car. Just tell them to put down the giant coffee or coke and step away from the vehicle...

[neily25]

@chris6770

HaHa! I drive a G35 coupe and was complaining the other day that my cup holders can only hold juice boxes. I like to drink and drive (non-alcoholic beverages, of course).

[Aznzzboi]

@neily25

they need cup holders big enough for bubble tea =P

[FerrariandBMW]

Damn that car sounds a lot like an Aston Martin :)

[aquaphoenixx]

What is it with Americans and cup holders?!?

[Aznbabyboi84]

@aquaphoenixx

I'm guessing that they drink a lot of energy drinks and soda that they need places to be put in.

[rowsdower12]

@aquaphoenixx Cause Americans have a eating and drinking problem. We have to eat and drink where ever we go. Its nice to have a cup holder but yeah, there are lots. I think they consider kids that's why so many cup holders. And competition as well.

[rowsdower12]

@aquaphoenixx Cause American's have problems of eating and drinking. They feel they need to have food whenever convient. Also consider kids as well. While cup holders are nice I agree, it gets rediculous. I have 5 cup holders total, and I drive an economy car!

[76carmel]

@aquaphoenixx

I guess we like to drink (mainly coffee) while we're on the run.

[Hook4100]

@aquaphoenixx We americans just love our extra room for our cups

[crammage]

are people retarded

ITS CALLED A STATION WAGON!

its ok but kinda big , i dont see the point of such a big car , thats not a suv,

oh well i guess its a toyota avalon wagon

[bluestarkad17]

38K!!!! W  T F

[Forgoten214]

@bluestarkad17

what do u expect? Asians are greedy.

[Sinosure]

Yeah, & American car makers, except Ford I guess are BROKE!

[clubtc05]

lol so true and im asian lol

[rsxzx6r]

@Forgoten214 either ur from a small town...or extremly uneducated....

[enemay]

I say its more of a minivan than a s SUV, not a bad thing, I think it's the hottest minivan out there, sure is better looking than a lot of cars or SUV out there, sure makes the Porsche Cayenne look like it was designed by a 12 year old...and umm did he just say 260HP?! not bad power to weight ratio.

[davewhodavedunn]

Great car, but I find it is WAY overpriced. He is right, this is acura infiniti money, but people are scouping em up like it's a black friday sale, so who am I to talk?

[hextor300g]

i like his style...its informative

[clubheadxtasy2]

i would kill for his job lol

[SKStylez]

amen... LOL

[f15x28isback]

It is an SUV. Who are you kidding?

[ionmacbookpro]

suv
