ES at DFW was stocked with at least a dozen 2012 Avalons on April 14th at noon.

Also a few 300's, Impalas, and other "normal" things. I was surprised at the size of the flock of Avalons.

I had not driven one yet, so I took it. It's a nice car if you know you'll need to get 4-5 people in it. We went out to dinner that night with 5 adults and everybody was comfortable.

Smooth, quiet ride...until you turn on the windshield wipers in which case it sounds like you've started a 2nd engine.
