Questions about the 2004 Solara from those that own it
I test drove the 2004 Solara and it rode better than my 99. I'm thinking of buying the new model but want to first see all the colors and find out any problems anyone is having with their new model.
Questions:
1. Does the front window top inside edge get dirty from the rubber gasket like the previous model always did? I hate having to always scrub that top dirt line.
2. Has anyone seen the new light or dark blue colors? I've seen the red, silver, white and black. To me the white looks best but I'm pretty hesitant having now the previous Solara in white and seeing how the bumpers now are a different color from the body. I also read that any colors in pearl are the absolute hardest to blend in if you require repainting. The black looks great but too hard to keep clean. The red is too bright and cop noticeable. The silver looked incredibly dull. Made the car look very drab.
Thanks in advance,
Dave
