It's a great performance vehicle that also looks great!
I absolutely love my car, this is my 2nd Toyota Solara convertible. I also own the 2002. These cars are the best. They handle well, look great and run so smooth. What's not to love when you drive with the top down!

It's great on gas. Makes it worth the money. And i have never team out of gas.
It's a convertible. Very spacious inside to be a two door. It's silver. And pretty good on gas.

Stylish with comfort and reliability.
I love the car, it handles great, good on gas, comfortable and was just what I wanted in a car. It has been very reliable in summer and winter. It handles great in snow and ice. It has CD player, am, FM and fm2 radio channels, also change radio station on the steering wheel, and it has intermittent wipers.

Owned it about 2 years. Like it a lot but after 130000 mls v6 repairs so far are oil leak (valve covers) ,front stabilizer links, front axle, brakes, tires, trans fluid change etc planning on keeping it for many years. Leather seats beginning to crack not sure what that may cost.

The Solara: a great car that has been discontinued.
My Toyota Solara is a fantastic car. This is the second one that I have bought. It is a two-door coupe which I love. It looks great and although it is a 2008 model, it stills draws admiring looks from others. The only sad thing is that 2008 was the last year this model was produced!

Lots of room, the truck could be better. The tires it comes with could be better.
Everything is perfect, drop top, lots of space. Very good quality, great auto system. No real problems with this car at all.

Great, reliable car - Toyota is a brand that you can really trust
I love my Toyota Solara. Even though it's over 10 years old, I've had no issues with it whatsoever. It drives smoothly, the engine is so quiet, and I have always felt safe in the vehicle. I love the 'luxury' features like heated seats and the fact that it's a convertible. I also love my radio, which can hold 6 CDs at a time or tune into AM or FM stations. The car also has bluetooth compatibility which is a feature I had never experienced prior to owning this car, but one that I enjoy very much! The only cons I can think of is that since it's a sportier car, there's really not a lot of room in the backseat so it isn't really conducive for carpooling. As well, while the trunk has decent amount of space to it, I am used to bigger trunks and wish this one had a little more room

The car is 11 years old the only highlight is that it is still running good
The name Toyota speaks for itself Toyota is a low maintenance car My family only buys Toyota This was my first but it won't be my last My nephew's Toyota had over 250 thousand miles before he purchased another and it was still going strong. My car is 11 years old and the only thing I've replaced is the battery, alternator and a belt
