i hate the coin box..i don't keep anything in it b/c it drives me crazy trying to get it out. I luv the little "secret" compartment btw the driver's side door and steering wheel that pulls down. It's so cute..don't laugh, but i usually have lollipops in it..don't ask why

lol...when i get my car back i'll take pics of the inside w/ both compartments. I wish i had it right now to go look! i don't know which is considered the coin tray but there one compartment to the left of the steerin wheel and one sliding tray under the cd but above the lighter that pulls out. i looked at a couple of interior pics from blaze and it doesn't look like there's a middle one, but i couldn't see it very well.

There's a coin tray? I usually keep my coins in the ash tray...You could consider the cup holders as a coin tray too. Hehehe

i think it's above the altoids and lighter and beneath the temp controls. i haven't seen my car for 3weeks tho so i think it might be under the cd and above the control. i'd put my money on the first one though.

Quality and Looks

Postby ragtopper » Sun Aug 11, 2002 11:13 pm

I started looking for a new car a little over a year ago. After driving a Sebring JXI convertible, I liked it but couldn't get past the fact that it was a Chrysler. Sorry Chrysler owners, but the quality just isn't there. But I decided then that a drop top was for me. I had a 10 year old Honda Prelude and liked and trusted Honda's, but the only convertible they made was the S2000 and it was too expensive. Saw the Solara convertible, loved the look. Check it out on consumer reports and several other info sources and all had good things too say about the reliability and quality. Also they hold resale value better than most cars in their price range.

Well, that was enough for me. And the compliments that I've gotten on it have been great. I really think that for the money it's the best convertible on the market. 8)
