Just look at the Gen5 Camry and new ES300...

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder :D
but then again, some cars are just factually (is that a word?) ugly!

At first I didn't like the Solara... I was like "wtf... a 2 door camry... who the hell would buy that! Toyota is trying WAY too hard!" @ age 15/16 but now love it :D

Factually ugly... and stupid... 2 door rav4... that thing looked horrible! It looked like one of those baby shoes.

I'm sure the Solara will look good since their target audience is the younger crowd (to increase camry sales like mad) but it seems that these days, the younger crowd can afford their SL 600s and S 55s

I read somewhere around that it'll come with a 3.5L engine, if that's true, that means, MORE HORSE POWA!, I hope so

A shame 5 speed V6's will become a thing of the past. I guess it will make me feel a little less inferior, heh. I could have had a child in less time than they said it would take me to get a 5 speed V6.

What ever happened to the rumored 245hp V6? 3MZ-FE VVT-i and 5spd auto with only 225? That's pitiful.

Yep I agree. That's why i'm a hard critic when it comes to these "rumors". I'll see it and believe it when it's official from Toyota.
