Like New at 9 years old!

People can't believe this car is 9 years old. The interior is almost flawless --great quality leather, headliner, etc... Love the moon/sun roof. Smooth ride. Everything works beautifully. Incredible bargain.

2001 Solara Convertable

Car now has 100,000 miles. Exterior is perfect. No mechanical issues. After 10 years, convertable top is worn. Rear speaker needs replacing. All in all, car is exceptional. If needed, I could drive this car cross country.

No frills equal more fun

Its more fun driving my four cyclinder Solara than my Lexus ES330. Why, well I like hearing what the engine is doing and have no gadgets to take my concentration from the road. Everything has been laid out logically requiring almost no eyes off the road to change the temp or turn down the radio or increase the fan. It gets me 27MPG in suburban enviroment which is the best of any of my cars. We bought it certified for the kids but I decided to keep it instead. I highly recommend this car.

I love this car!

I bought this 2001 Camry Solara used, in 2006. It had about 52,000 miles. It looked new, inside and out. I have not had to spend a dime on it, other than for routine maintenance. It has LOTS of power ... enough to get in trouble. The only detrimental thing I can say about it is that the gas mileage could be better. I average about 25 mpg (combined). I love this car!

Red Convertible-Awesome car! A real head turner.

I bought this car this year, as an 2001. And everything about it inside and out is like it's brand new. Engine, looks, operation, etc. The oil never gets dark, it's always perfectly clear even before oil changes. It's not a very common car so people often gawk and ask what it is when the top is down. people really love interior, all leather, they always want to stare inside. It's good on gas but a fairly large car. I love it. Looks and performs way more expensive than it is.

2001 Toyota SLE Solara

This car is a good value for the money. I bought my car used. Has great spunk, nice style (in/out)..mechanically sound...the leather is not cheap...nice sound system (jbl). Very fun to drive. Gas mileage could use some improvement...but overall, very good bang for the buck!!
