Hi my name is Sandra. Not too long ago i purchased my first car which is a grey 2001 Toyota Solara. Sadly it is a 4-cylinder..haha really wish i had a V6 but that's okay.. There are some complications with my car and i am still in the process of trying to get everything fixed...there are problems with the cat converter..need new axles, mounts, have 3 oil leaks, bought new rodors, needs a new steering pump, struts/shocks, and just got 2 new tires...not only that, the paint job on the front bumper is peeling and to cover it up they put a bra on it...looks ridiculous but better than driving it around looking crappy!! :( they also painted parts of it with grey nail polish....YEA....:( but yea it's a lot..unfortunately when i bought it i didn't really know much about cars, didn't know what questions to ask about it and bought it like that..i would say i got totally ripped off.. i bought it like this for $4100..at first he was trying to sell it for $4900..i know...*sigh* BUT for some reason it doesn't really bother me because i LOVE it :D

after i get everything done i want to soup it up and make it REALLY nice..
i was actually looking up info on my car and found this website :D im hoping this site well help me out a lot with what i need to do or what i should do to make my car fast, nice, and make it sound MEAN haha
i am really into cars but i need help :P

i have lived in georgia for about 6-7 years and i havent seen ONE solara that looked nice and are souped up..so i want to be the first xP
i havent figured out how to post pictures yet...so once i find out i will :P ( btw anyone want to tell me?? :P )
thanks:)

Welcome Sandra! The Solara is a great car. Even though I don't drive mine a lot, I still love it. It's a blast to drive in the summer time.

Welcome Sandra!

Upload pics to a site like photobucket and then copy the "IMG code" and paste into a post.

Welcome Sandra, Wow seems like you got a handful. Good Luck with everything and if you need any help just keep on posting here, i'm pretty sure someone will help you.

Posting pics on the forums is pretty easy.
1. You need some sort of Photo sharing account. ( http://www.photobucket.com ) Which is very easy.
2. When you upload a photo, there should be an IMG Code that you can Copy.
Example
Image
3. Just paste that to the post and it will automatically show up.
