honestly though, as long as the dashboard looks okay, why does it matter how it feels or if its soft touch? people dont go around feeling their dashboards while theyre driving. Its more important to worry about the places you actually touch when youre in the car like the armrests and door panels.

asdbs11 I agree with you. I don't necessarily see what is the problameo with the vehicle fit and finish as for the dashboard or other irrelevant areas where no one would actually touch unless detailing the vehicle, but I do I agree with the creaking with the plastics in that vehicle and I can deal with the center console creaking with music ... not a problem; however, when you have a car that is priced in the mid to upper $20k's than anyone can expect a car to have cheaply made interior materials and creaks throughout the vehicle itself. We are not talking about a $60k Lexus that should have exceptional character with it interior fit and finish. We are talking about an affordable Toyota Venza to some people with plastic interior material that creaks, but again; it is not a big deal to me. The interior look incredibly good to me, especially the faux wood around the cup holders and how the center piece ( the cup holders and storage) slides back and forth, that is quite nifty.

***** Honda Accord is a great choice for people looking for practicality, but no matter how the reviewer has compared this vehicle to a Camry or an Accord, it doesn't directly compete with either. It compete with Ford Escape, Dodge Journey, Hyundai Santa Fe, Mazda CX-9 and vehicles of that nature. But as for pricing, maybe you should step up to the Venza limited with better built quality and overall design if you are willing to spend over $30k on a Toyota.

We had one of these. Yeah, the fit and finish was horrendous and replacing the 19" tires cost a small fortune, but overall I was pleased with the car because it had loads of room, was comfortable, very practical and best of all, it saved our lives in a pretty severe crash that totaled it.

I think the interior on this vehicle is nice. Very Toyota practical. I could not care less if there is hard plastic, and that sliding center console design is amazing. What I do care about is whether or not the interior wears well even past the ten-year mark. Toyota = economy, reliability, durability, longevity. This was one of the most sensible cars you could buy. A very capable Subaru Outback alternative. Too bad they were discontinued.

Acquiring press vehicles isn't as easy as you think it is. Manufacturers control which media company gets them and we are in line. We should be getting a press car next month but in the mean time, we go to our area dealerships for access. Nothing wrong with that, we started out this way and will continue to do so. Used car are an important part of sales, a lot of people want to know how these cars hold up throughout the years.

I agree about the cheap materials and the creaking. But it's still a great value if you're buying used at a good price. It's still a very stylish and practical vehicle, lots a great standard features, a ton of room, with good reliability. They were priced a little too high to have that cheap interior. The Crosstour interior was way better but less practical.

The Prius V is a completely different vehicle. It's smaller, lower to the ground, and is even more like a car. They have different purposes, the V is designed to appeal to Prius drivers looking for more room, while the Venza is designed for Camry drivers looking for more room and a higher seating position with the availability of AWD as well.

Soft interiors FTW. Soft dashboard, soft door panels, soft armrests, padded headliner, soft center console and a nicely finished trunk!

I don't think the venza looks that bad, especially if you get the 20" wheels and with the slightly updated version. Its unique in a good and much better looking than the honda crosstour that you mentioned. the hone is the one that looks a lot like a accord stationwagon. heck it even has 'accord' in its name hence 'accord crosstour'

Who cares if the dashboard is hard plastic.

It's an important aspect because if the cut costs on the interior perhaps they cut costs elsewhere? A soft touch interior will last longer and gives a more premium feel which I think any car north of $20k should have. I understand that power, performance, handling, feel, practicality and style are important but interior quality is important too.

You know when you are reviewing a base model vehicle it is going to have rough grains and partially leather vinyls throughout the vehicle itself, but it doesn't make it a bad vehicle because it offer great value and a decent amount of power and fuel efficiency with that four-cylinder; and furthermore, for that vehicle to be a base model I see fog lamps and rear cup holders that don't come standard on most base model vehicles ... period.

I Had A 2010 Toyota Venza Awd Grey Suv

This car is essentially a 5-seater Highlander in my eyes. Reliable Toyota and affordable when used. I have 2 kids and a dog. This car has the biggest space between the 1st and 2nd row that fits a dog for trips when the trunk is full. When I hear this car compared to brands with next to 0 reliability, I laugh when thinking about worrying about soft touch materials on the dash. Completely misses the point. Of course, a review should cover all the points. But there is a bias in this review against this car and unfortunately the point of this vehicle was missed.

What this guy sees as boring and bland, is something that'll last well past 300k miles, on up to 500k+ miles. I'll take the boring and bland if it means not spending a dime on repairs.
