Toyota Avalons were never built in Japan - for the most part, they were built in Georgetown, Kentucky (funny thing, I am listening to a medley of strange stuff and a banjo bit just started when I typed in the name of the place), but some first-gen cars were also built in Australia for mostly local consumption.

My little research into our collection of Avalons did not bring about any apparently Australian examples, so I guess I can say we can brand all Avalons @ IMCDb as "built in USA" for the time being.
