2006 Toyota Camry Solara Review:
Have driven over 60,000 miles in less than 2 years. Vehicle is fun, lean on fuel, untimely style, quick, efficient, and safe. Am completely pleased. Large trunk, good sound system, excellent air flow, and comfortable for the driver. Had to replace windshield due to road hazard (expected with hi mileage). As long as you keep serviced, this vehicle won't let you down.

Pros: What do you like about 2006 Toyota Camry Solara?
Quick "automatic" top, beautiful interior, comfort, roomy back seat, fast and powerful,
Cons: How would you improve 2006 Toyota Camry Solara?
Do something to improve the driver's rear view. The small window coupled with the rear headrests make you rely heavily on your side mirrors.
2006 Toyota Camry Solara Review:
My first car was an old MGB convertible and I decided at 35 it was time for another convertible. I knew that it was going to be a hard change after becoming used to a four door sedan. When I test drove the Solara I knew I had found the one. There is actually room in the backseat for two tall adults and the trunk is a decent size for my shopping trips to the mall. My favorite part is how the top goes down at the push of a button in less than 15 seconds. The SLE interior is very luxurious and the hidden features of the navigation system (maintenance schedule, calendar, etc.) are very nice. There aren't many around here so people are always asking me what it is and telling me how good it looks.

Pros: What do you like about 2006 Toyota Camry Solara?
Heated seats and ease of handling. The moon roof is nearly as good as a convertible! My husband loves the "rich" interior looks and the lumbar support.
Cons: How would you improve 2006 Toyota Camry Solara?
Memory settings for the driver seat is my only wish right now
2006 Toyota Camry Solara Review:
We researched a lot of cars and although I really wanted the convertible at first, the visibility was terrible. At 5' tall, I am able to adjust the seat so that I have no problems with comfort. I do agree that memory settings for the driver seat would make this car complete. (My husband is 6'2") The rear seat is big and the trunk is much larger than the convertible, plus the 60/40m split seat behind that folds down to access the trunk is great for skis or a random trip to the hardware store. It combined my wishes for a sporty looking car with a great luxury car that my husband wanted. It is close to perfect!

That whole thing with the rain dripping on you has to be fixed....
2006 Toyota Camry Solara Review:
It's a pretty car, I'll give it that. But that's not enough to make this a car to love. The 4-cyl engine doesn't have enough power, I worry about getting enough acceleration to merge on to the highways. The car just feels a bit "clunky" to me. Oh, and don't crack the windows if it's just stopped raining, you'll get drenched; the water pours in....

2006 Toyota Camry Solara Review:
You'd expect more from Toyota. After a month check engine light came on and the dealer determined that cylinder 3 misfires (it had erratic idling and would not accelerate properly). All they did was reset the computer. 2 weeks after they did it, check engine light came on again. Feels like the same problem. The car has 1400 miles on it. Also the door does not always close right away. This is due to the fact that there is no frame around the glass. Also even when it does close, there is excessive noise from the wind when driving at 50 mph. You have to pull the window down and then close it again for the wind to go away. Taking it to the dealer again tomorrow...
