The 1st generation Toyota Camry Solara Coupe was introduced in the 1999 model year. The convertible variant followed in 2000. The 2nd generation duplicated this staggered production in 2004 and 2005, and production was moved from Canada to Georgetown, KY. After a ten-year run, production of both coupes and convertibles was suspended in 2008. Early in its lifecycle, with "Camry" already a well-established model of its own, that portion of the name was dropped by the public and, in response, "Solara" was the only moniker Toyota applied to the body.
This 2005 Toyota Solara is a beautiful example of a 2nd generation model. With less than 54K miles, the math averages out to about 2K per year, and it shows. This is a very clean car and everything works like it just came off the showroom floor. The silver exterior over grey interior shows very well with little wear. The top and windows operate in designed unison when opening or closing the lid. An accompanying aftermarket cover hides the top when it is down. The engine and transmission apply power to the road with plenty of ponies to make for a spirited drive with the wind in your hair, or not. The vehicle includes factory Toyota emergency and first-aid kits along with a car cover and a blanket for picnic or warmth.
These cars are underrated given the convertible 2+2 type styling and the quality Toyota is known for. This will make a fabulous ocean beach cruiser or fun mountain road runner for those little day trip jaunts.
