I'm totally agree about the classy/sporty looking, but I think it's not the best thing, the best thing is the cup holder, and the one touch moon roof...well it's not the unique about this car but it's all good :lol: :lol:

my favorite feature...well, besides the coin tray?? :wink:

That it's mine!

I think I really love the interior, so comfortable and roomy. Although, I do have this "control" problem w/ the inside of my car, lol. I hate having ANYTHING in it. Like I can't leave things out to see. It's ok if it's in the coin tray, or in the trunk, or in the arm rest, but please NOT out where the car is! Haha, yea, I'm sick. This winter killed me to have that damn ice scraper on the floor behind my seat :o

Ooo..and I know I've said this before, but my favorite feature when I was looking at the car/buying the car.....brace yourself...

the "solara" logo on the back :lol: (It's so pretty!)

When you drive a manual, the only time you are moving your leg or moving your arm is to shift gears. Other than that, you are driving the car normally at cruising speed....you have your right foot on the gas, hands on 10 and 2 on the steering wheel. Everyone with an auto always have to say excuses about why they don't like manuals and etc. Excuses excuses excuses. LOL :roll:

yeah, i can put my left leg out the window whenever i want. i ate a hot dog before while driving. phone.... no problem. there are no excuses. the only time it was hard to do other things was in the very beginning, when i was just learning. oh, and traffic, thats coo, just keep it in second and when they slow down, let off the gas a little, even easier than breaking :D

Bla, bla, bla..........
Let"s be realistic guys. Manual and Auto transmission, both have their advantages and inconvenients.
I owned both manual and auto cars, and found that manual is better than auto in terms of performance (manual allows you to control your ride). However in terms of comfort especially in city driving, auto is by far more comfortable than manual (if you take your car every dail in rush hour, you better go with an automatic. it spares you from shifting every 2 seconds).
