This vehicle has a very powerful engine and it still functions well, even though it is from 1997. Plenty of trunk and storage space makes it ideal for travel. This vehicle's maintenance is cheap and easy. The fuses are, unfortunately, old and weak and the heating system isn't functioning properly. The internal computer, as well as the sensors have issues. The interior of this car is very nice but it stains easily and is very difficult to clean. This vehicle still handles very well, though the ride is not very smooth.

My Solara is a manual transmission model. I had to replace the catalytic converter and ignition switch, but after doing that it runs like a beast. It has close to 180,000 miles on it now, but I do not hear any foreign sounds and it runs as smooth as ever.
