They also get much better fuel economy and cost a couple grand less from the dealer. I love my v6 but getting 30MPG would be very nice

i get a consistent 27MPG for my daily use and when i go on trips i get 29 MPG.
i wouldnt give up the ease of driving, the power to climb and accelerate for a couple of MPG more!

I personally agree, thats why i have the v6, but the i4 is still a great engine and it does have power. Granted with 4 people up a hill it strugles, but so does the v6. Some people don't want to spend $23k+ on a new car when they could get it with a smaller engine for 18k. Just try not offend the fellow solara owners with the i4

Take it easy on them

mailskobe, why does ur signature say SZ v6? isnt it SE?

by **mailskobe** » Tue Feb 25, 2003 8:47 pm

glad you asked!
well when you get SE with all the options on it, its called a SZ according to the toyota books.. :roll:

i didnt want the SLE coz i would kill myself than drive an auto. :drinking:

i like the auto. climate control in SLE tho!

i see, good stuff. learn somethin new everyday

by **mailskobe** » Tue Feb 25, 2003 9:02 pm

did some research, the sports package #4 (sports, leather, moon etc) is code named SZ

BTW, didnt know what 2003's dont come with sticks!

what is toyota thinking, all the new models of cars that initially didnt come with stick are coming up with 6 speeds (G35, acura, even honda accord).
every ones tilting towards stick atleast in semi-sports catagory like solara..
:evil:

by **Peter** » Tue Feb 25, 2003 9:33 pm

hopefully the new 04 solara will be a 6 speed v6...who knows

only the V6's don't come in 5-spd, you can get an i4 in 5-spd if you wish!

Toyota did that because the Manual SE V6 was a slow seller.
