A nun leaves the convent for the bright lights of a big city – The new Toyota Avalon

Well, Toyota didn’t disappoint this time. They showed the public a couple of racy photos of the rear portion of the new Avalon’s roofline a couple of months ago, and it looked promising. But a sexy Avalon? Nobody would believe that this nun would ever shed her habit and show some skin.

Believe it, because the new Toyota looks great! She didn’t exactly go from the habit to a string bikini, but she’s now wearing an above-knee hemline business suit with lots of exposure in the cleavage area.

She also received some much needed attention from her personal trainer, because she is all firmed up and she doesn’t pretend that she’s a 1976 Fleetwood Brougham in the suspension department.

Add classier interior and more heft in her steering and what do we have here, dear? I hesitate to say it, but isn’t this car better looking than the new Camry? It’s certainly a sexier and more compelling proposition than before. I'd take this nun on a date!
