Nuances
I got 99 solara se v6 auto. There are couple of things that could give you problems although nothing is major.
1. First of all, the visors are of crappy quality. I don't use mine that much at all but the flimsy plastic that holds the mirror is broken and the mirror fell. This is really minor but dealers charge like +100 bucks for this. I have heard someone here complain about this also.
2. Driver seat is lose??? and when I accelerate the seat would tilt back a bit and tilt forward when braking. Go figure...
3. Water vapor in fog light.... but is not that noticable and I can live with that.
4. Shiny metallic paint of the grill is easy to be chipped. I drive on highway a lot and maybe those bugs have something to do with this. I am hoping to replace mine someday.
5. Power seat is not really adjustable ??... When you want seat bottom to tilt the whole seat tilts instead of just the seat bottom. I found this annoying but it is comfy seat even with the clothe.
I had a car for more than 2 years and above are the only things that I can complain about....wow those ARE minor stuffs. Solara is really dependable car and it is great value if you are looking for good looking used coupe.
